Can someone answer this !!!!

Let the smaller number be x.

larger number: 22+x

x+(x+22)=62
2x+22=62
2x=62-22
2x=40
x=40/2
x=20

The smaller number is 20 and the bigger number is 22+20= 42

Hope I helped :)

Suppose 120 geology students measure the mass of an ore sample. Due to human error and limitations in the reliability of the ba

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

For this case we want this probability:

$P( 75$

And we can use the z score formula given by:

$z = \frac{87-81}{3} = 2$

$z = \frac{75-81}{3} = -2$

So we want the probability for the values within two deviations from the mean and from the empirical rule we know that we have approximately 0.95 or 95% of the values within two deviations from the true mean.

And since we have a total of 120 students we expect:

120*0.95 = 114 between 75g and 87 g

Step-by-step explanation:

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 courtship time (minutes).

From the problem we have the mean and the standard deviation for the random variable X. $E(X)=81, Sd(X)=3$

So we can assume $\mu=81 , \sigma=3$

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
