Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the HCF of two numbers is 20 and the LCM of both numbers is a multiple of 14.

So, the LCM of both numbers = 14n where n can be any natural number.

As HCF of two numbers is always smaller than or equal to the smallest number among both the numbers.

Here, the HCF of two numbers is 20, so the smallest number is greater than of equal to 20.

Hence, the smallest possible number is 20.

The length of a rectangle in five times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 96 cm, find its area
KATRIN_1 [288]
Translating this word problem into symbolic statements:  L = 5W, P=2W+2L= 96 cm

Then 96 cm = 2W + 2(5W) = 12W.  Solving for W, W = 96 cm  /  12  = 8 cm

Width = 8 cm
Length = 5(8 cm) = 40 cm

Area = L * W = (40 cm)(8 cm) = 320 cm^2

Assume the upper arm length of males over 20 years old in the United States is approximately Normal with mean 39.3 centimeters (
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

a) For this case we can use this:

P(X

P(X>\mu +3*\sigma)=P(X>46.5)=0.0015

So the range of lengths would be 32.1 and 46.5 since on the middle of these two values we have 1-0.0015-0.0015=0.997 or 99.7 % of the values.

b) P(X>36.9)

And using the complement rule we have:

P(X>36.9)= 1-P(X

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The empirical rule, also known as three-sigma rule or 68-95-99.7 rule, "is a statistical rule which states that for a normal distribution, almost all data falls within three standard deviations (denoted by σ) of the mean (denoted by µ)".

Let X the random variable who represent the variable of interest.

From the problem we have the mean and the standard deviation for the random variable X. E(X)=39.3, Sd(X)=2.4

So we can assume \mu=39.3 , \sigma=2.4

On this case in order to check if the random variable X follows a normal distribution we can use the empirical rule that states the following:

• The probability of obtain values within one deviation from the mean is 0.68

• The probability of obtain values within two deviation's from the mean is 0.95

• The probability of obtain values within three deviation's from the mean is 0.997

So we have the following probabilities using this rule:

P(X    

P(X>\mu +\sigma)=P(X >41.7)=0.16  

P(X    

P(X>\mu +2*\sigma)P(X>44.1)=0.025

P(X

P(X>\mu +3*\sigma)=P(X>46.5)=0.0015

Part a

For this case we can use this:

P(X

P(X>\mu +3*\sigma)=P(X>46.5)=0.0015

So the range of lengths would be 32.1 and 46.5 since on the middle of these two values we have 1-0.0015-0.0015=0.997 or 99.7 % of the values.

Part b

For this casee we want this probability:

P(X>36.9)

And using the complement rule we have:

P(X>36.9)= 1-P(X

How do i solve this pls​
miskamm [114]
First we would solve both x’s
3x^2 - 5x
But 3 has the thingy thing (forgot the name haha)
Which means you have to multiply it by itself that many times which would be
3x3=9
So now it would be
9x- 5x = 4x
Which leaves 7 and 4x

Now you may subtract those two

7-4x= 3x
