Answer:

Hello,

Answer 26.9

Step-by-step explanation:

z=\dfrac{x-m}{\sigma} \\m=20.8\\\sigma=5.2\\\\p(z>?)\geq 0.12\ \longrightarrow 1-p(z\leq ?)=(1-0.12))\\\\Using\ table\ of\ normal\ reduce\ with\ 4 \decimals : ?=1.175\\\\x=1.175*5.2+20.8=26.91\approx{26.9}

Why is it necessary to check that n modifyingabove p with caret greater than or equals 5np≥5 and n modifyingabove q with caret g
Nookie1986 [14]

Both of these conditions must be true in order for the assumption that the binomial distribution is approximately normal. In other words, if np \ge 5 and nq \ge 5 then we can use a normal distribution to get a good estimate of the binomial distribution. If either np or nq is smaller than 5, then a normal distribution wouldn't be a good model to use.

side note: q = 1-p is the complement of probability p

Prove that the sum of the squares of any two odd numbers is always even
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a number is even if it is expressed so n = 2k. It is odd if it is in the form 2k + 1 (k is just an integer)

Let's say we have to odd numbers, 2a + 1, and 2b + 1. We are after the sum of their squares, so we have (2a + 1)^2 + (2b + 1)^2. Now let's expand this;

(2a + 1)^2 + (2b + 1)^2 = 4a^2 + 4a + 4b + 4b^2 + 4b + 2

= 2(2a^2 + 2a + 2b^2 + 2b + 1)

Now the sum in the parenthesis, 2a^2 + 2a + 2b^2 + 2b + 1, is just another integer, which we can pose as k. Remember that 2 times any random integer, either odd or even, is always even. Therefore the sum of the squares of any two odd numbers is always even.

X squared equals 922. The square root is a decimal which I can't use.
Step2247 [10]
If you need to siplify that radical, you should try to put all the numbers as product of prime factors.

922 = 2*461

2 and 461 are prime numbers. Then the transformation of the square root is √(922) = √(2*461) = (√2)(√461)

So you can use that in any expression to try to simpliy with other numbers whose prime factors include 2 and 461.
