Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this you have to make a system of equations.
Since the father and son's age sum up to 60, the first equation will be:
f + s = 60
Secondly, since the father's age is 5 times the age of the son 6 years ago the equation will be:
6 - (5s) = f
Now, you have to solve the first equation to let it equal to s
f + s = 60
f = 60 - s
Plug in
6 - 5s = 60 - s
+s +s
6 - 4s = 60
-6 -6
---------------------
-4s = 54
----- -----
-4 -4
s ≅ 14
14 + 6 = 20
Answer:
What is questions?
Step-by-step explanation:
What is questions?
A could be 2 while B could be 3, so -2a+3b turns into -4+9, which equals 5.
From what I know you can't really solve a a single equation with two-variables so it's just a matter of trial and error.
Just try plugging in a small number like 2 for a just to try it and you get 8b^2=72.
Divide everything by 8 to isolate b and you get that b^2=9.
Square root everything and you'll find that b=3. This is just one possible combination, I'm sure there are many more but this is obviously the one that was intended to be found.
Now that we know that a=2 and b=3 just plug them into the equation.
-2(2)+3(3)=?
-4+9=?
5
Sorry about having to use this ^ symbol, the equation maker is not working.
Answer:
0.8185 or 81.85%
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean length (μ) of an adult foot is 11 and the standard deviation (σ) is 1.5.
The z score is a measure in statistic used to determine the amount of standard deviation by which the raw score (x) is above or below the mean. If the raw score is above the mean, the z score is positive and if the raw score is below the mean the z sore is negative. It is given by:
To calculate the probability that a randomly selected male will have a foot length between 8 and 12.5 inches, we first calculate the z score for 8 inches and then for 12.5 inches.
For 8 inches:
For 12.5 inches:
From the normal distribution table, The probability that a randomly selected male will have a foot length between 8 and 12.5 inches = P(8 < x < 12.5) = P(-2 < z < 1) = P(z < 1) - P(z < -2) = 0.8413 - 0.0228 = 0.8185 = 81.85%
