Answer:

m^2-3m-180=0

m=15

Step-by-step explanation:

greater integer = m

small integer = n

we know that m = n+3 or n = m-3

we also know that n*m = 180

replace n for m-3

(m-3)*m=180

or

m^2-3m-180 = 0

(m-15)(m+12)=0

so m = 15 or -12, but since problem states positive, m=15

The total cost of a jacket and a pair of shoes was $52.95. If the price of the jacket was $3.87 less than the pair of shoes, wha
abruzzese [7]

The price of jacket was $24.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Cost of jacket = x

Cost of pair of shoes = y

According to given statement;

x+y=52.95   Eqn 1

x = y-3.87    Eqn 2

Putting value of x from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

(y-3.87)+y=52.95\\y-3.87+y=52.95\\2y=52.95+3.87\\2y=56.82\\

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{56.82}{2}\\y=28.41

Putting y=28.41 in Eqn 2,

x=28.41-3.87\\x=24.54

The price of jacket was $24.54

Answer:

The correct value is t* = 2.797.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 25 - 1 = 24

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 24 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a  two-tailed confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995. So we have T = 2.797.
