If one is positive we can conclude that the other is also positive

Positive*positive=positive(24)

The product of the two numbers is 24

And the smaller number is less than the greater number by 2

Factors of 24=1*24,2*12,3*8,4*6.

The only pair with the diffrence of two is 4*6

Therefore the two integers are 4 and 6

On average 83.1% of welds performed by a particular welder are defective. if, in one day, the welder creates three welds. what i

Nuetrik [128]

Let p be 0.831 denote the percentage of defective welds and q be 0.169 denote the percentage of non-defective welds.

Using the binomial distribution, we want all three to be defective.
$P(X = 3) = \binom{3}{3}(p)^{3}{q}^{3 - 3}$
$P(X = 3) = \binom{3}{3}(0.831)^{3}(1)$
$P(X = 3) = (0.831)^{3} \approx 0.573856191$

What's (7x/2-5x+3)+(2x/2+4x-6)

Anika [276]

I'm assuming that when you wrote "(7x/2-5x+3)+(2x/2+4x-6)," you actually meant "(7x^2-5x+3)+(2x^2+4x-6). Correct me if I'm wrong here.

+(7x^2-5x+3)
+(2x/2+4x-6)

They're both equal. The zero in 95.580 doesn't matter in this comparison.
