Let x and y be the 2 parts of 15 ==> x + y=15 (given)
Reciprocal of x and y ==> 1/x +1/y ==> 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 (given)
Let's solve 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 . Common denominator = 10.x.y (reduce to same denominator)
==> (10y+10x)/10xy = 3xy/10xy ==> 10x+10y =3xy
But x+y = 15 , then 10x+10y =150 ==> 150=3xy and xy = 50
Now we have the sum S of the 2 parts that is S = 15 and
their Product = xy =50
Let's use the quadratic equation for S and P==> X² -SX +P =0
Or X² - 15X + 50=0, Solve for X & you will find:
The 1st part of 15 is 10 & the 2nd part is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
5/6+1/4
3/12+10/12=13/12=
well You need to find number which can divide into six and four and the smallest to make finding It easy. 12 is the smallest
A. left 2 units
the vertex form of a parabola is
y = a(x-h)^2 + k
(h,k) is the point of the vertex
since h is -2 in (x+2)^2
the function is shifted 2 units left
Step-by-step answer:
standard deviation (sigma) = 12 inches
mean (mu) = 90 inches.
For 36 years, the standard error of the mean is
e = sigma / sqrt(n) = 12" / sqrt(36) = 2".
Deviation from the mean
= 92.8 -90 = 2.8
Since the standard error of the mean follows the normal distribution, we have
Z=(92.8-90)/2 = 1.4
Looking up the normal distribution tables, or check R, we find
P(Z>1.4) = 1-P(Z<1.4) = 1-0.9192433 = 0.08075666
Answer: P(snowfall>92.8) = 0.0808 (to four decimal places)
