Three consecutive odd integers are such that the square of the third integer is 1515 greater than greater than the sum of the sq

Ksju [112]

Let
x-----------> first odd integer
x+2--------> second consecutive odd integer
x+4-------> third consecutive odd integer

we know that
(x+4)²=15+x²+(x+2)²-------> x²+8x+16=15+x²+x²+4x+4
x²+8x+16=19+2x²+4x-------> x²-4x+3
x²-4x+3=0

using a graph tool----------> to calculate the quadratic equation
see the attached figure
the solution is
x=1
x=3

the answer is
the first odd integer x is 1
the second consecutive odd integer x+2 is 3
the third consecutive odd integer x+4 is 5

A linear model is given for the data in the table: y=1.25x+2.

Fed [463]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A linear model is given for the data in the table: y=1.25x+2.

Let us write observed values for each x and also the predicted values as per equation.

x 2 3 4 8 10 16 20 24 Total

y((O) 3 4 7 12 16 22 28 30

y(P) 4.5 5.75 7 12 14.5 22 27 32

DEv 1.5 1.75 0 0 1.5 0 1 2 7 75

where y(0) represents observed y or y in the table given

y(P) gives values of y predicted as per the equation 1.25x+2

Dev represents the absolute difference

Hence answer is option

A.7.75

Natalia begins to find the mean absolute deviation of this data set. She finds the mean of the data and then finds the distance

s2008m [1.1K]

Hello!

To calculate mean absolute deviation, you find the mean, find the distance between each data point and the mean, add up those distances, and divide by the number of data points.

In this scenario, after Natalia finds the distances, she must add them all up and then divide by the number of data points.

I hope this helps!

Hope is the coach of the Wilson High School girls' soccer team. There are 3 minutes left in the game they are currently playing,

NISA [10]

To answer this question, we need to find the winning probability in either case.

Probability = no. of outcomes / total no. of possible outcomes

When Hope pulled her defender :

Total no. of games = 9

No. of games won = 3

Winning probability = 3/9 =1/3

When Hope left her defender :

Total no. of games = 10

No. of games won = 6

Winning probability = 6/10 = 3/5

We know that , 1/3 < 3/5.

So, Hope should not pull her defender, as the winning probability is better when Hope left her defender.

Answer : A. Hope should not pull her defender.
