Answer:
27 and 32.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two numbers be A and B.
The larger number (let's use B) is 5 more than the smaller one (A). In other words:
Their sum is 59. So:
This is a system of equations. Solve by substituting the first equation into the second. Thus:
Combine like terms:
Subtract 5 from both sides:
Divide both sides by 2:
So, the smaller number is 27.
This means that the bigger number is 27+5=32.
So, the two numbers are 27 and 32.
And we're done!
Answer:
93.39
Step-by-step explanation:
So the sum of exterior angles of the convex octagon is: 360 degrees
This means if we add all the equations that represent each angle, we can set it equal to 360 and solve for x
Group like terms
Add like terms
Now let's set the sum of exterior angles to 360
Subtract 2 from both sides
Divide both sides by 23
So by looking at all these, it appears that 6x is the highest value, given that x is positive. The way I estimated, is approximately 15.5, whenever I saw an equation like x+14, I estimated it's about 2x, since 14 is not exactly, but close to 15.5. I did this with each polynomial given. You could also manually check each one
Original equation
6x
Subsitute
6(15.565)

Answer:
Probability to get tails exactly 8 times or exactly 5 times is 0.29
Step-by-step explanation:
No of ways the coins lands tails exactly 8 times
P(8) = 15C8 × ×
No of ways the coin lands tails exactly 5 times
P(5) = 15C5 × ×
Probability to get tails exactly 8 times or 5 times
P(8)+P(5) = 15C8 × + 15C5 ×
P = ( 15C8 + 15C5 )
P = ( (
) + (
) )
P = ( 6435 + 3003 )
P = ( 9438)
P = ( 4719)
P =
P = 0.29
