Answer:

49, 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one number be x and other be y.

According to the first condition:

x + y = 86.....(1)

According to the second condition:

x = y + 12..... (2)

Substituting x = y + 12 in equation (1)

y + 12 + y = 86

2y = 86 - 12

2y = 74

y = 74/2

y = 37

x = y + 12

x = 37 + 12

x = 49

Thus, the two numbers are 49 and 37

The mean amount purchased by a typical customer at Churchill’s Grocery Store is $23.50, with a standard deviation of $5.00. Assu

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer: 0.0170

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The mean amount purchased by a typical customer at Churchill’s Grocery Store is $23.50, with a standard deviation of $5.00.

i.e. $\mu=23.50$

$\sigma=5$

We assume the distribution of amounts purchased follows the normal distribution.

Sample size : n=50

Let $\overline{x}$ be the sample mean.

Formula : $z=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

Then, the probability that the sample mean is at least $25.00 will be :-

$P(\overline{x}\geq\25.00)=P(\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}\geq\dfrac{25-23.50}{\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{50}}})\\\\=P(z\geq2.12)\\\\=1-P(z$

Hence, the likelihood the sample mean is at least $25.00= 0.0170

Find all values of x that make the triangles congruent. Explain your reasoning.

RSB [31]

Answer:

x = $\frac{4}{5},5$

Step-by-step explanation:

If both the triangles ΔABC and ΔBCD are congruent,

Corresponding sides of both the triangles will be proportional.

$\frac{AB}{BD}=\frac{AC}{CD}$

$\frac{5x}{3x+10}=\frac{5x-2}{4x+3}$

5x(4x + 3) = (5x - 2)(3x + 10)

20x² + 15x = 15x² + 50x - 6x - 20

20x² + 15x = 15x² + 44x - 20

20x² - 15x² = 44x - 15x - 20

5x² = 29x - 20

5x² - 29x + 20 = 0

5x² - 25x - 4x + 20 = 0

5x(x - 5) - 4(x - 5) = 0

(5x - 4)(x - 5) = 0

$x=\frac{4}{5},5$

Which is the best approximation for the value of √102?<br> A.10<br> B.11<br> C.50<br> D.51

Trava [24]

10, because when you use a scientific calculator you get 10.09950494
which would be round to 10 because after the decimal the number is 0 below 5 so 10 stays as 10
