Answer:

Number is 19

Step-by-step explanation:

denote the number by x.

the line says:

5x - 20 = 18 + 3 x

Subtracting 3x form both sides

2x - 20 = 18

adding 20 to both sides

2x = 38

dividing both sides by 2

x = 19

Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

let n = the number

5n - 20 = 18 + 3n

combine like terms in one of four different ways

2n = 38

n = 19

Answer:

the two numbers are 3 and 3.

1/5 of 3 is 0.6

1/5 of 6 is 1.2

3 + 3 = 6

(1/5)3 = 0.6

(1/5)6 = 1.2

Industrial engineers periodically conduct "work measurement" analyses to determine the time required to produce a single unit of
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

a) \bar X =117.8

Median= \frac{117+118}{2}=117.5

The mode on this case is the most repeated value 128 with a frequency of 3

b) Range = Max -Min = 150-88=62

s^2 = 225.334

s= \sqrt{225.334}= 15.011

c) y \pm s

Lower = 117.8 -15.011=102.809

Upper = 117.8 +15.011=132.831

y \pm 2s

Lower = 117.8 -2*15.011=87.797

Upper = 117.8 +2*15.011=147.842

y \pm 3s

Lower = 117.8 -3*15.011=72.787

Upper = 117.8 +3*15.011=162.85

d) For this case we can calculate the position where we have accumulated 70% of the data below.

50*0.7 = 35

So on the position 35th from the dataset ordered we see that the value is 128 and this value would represent the 70th percentile on this case.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we consider the following data:

128,119,95,97,124,128,142,98,108,120,113,109,124,132,97,138,133,136,120,112,146,128,103,135,114,109,100,111,131,113,124,131,133,131,88,118,116,98,112,138,100,112,111,150,117,122,97,116,92,122

Part a

For this case we can calculate the mean with the following formula:

\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^{50} X_i}{50}

And after replace we got \bar X =117.8

In order to calculate the median first we order the dataset and we got:

88  92  95  97  97  97  98  98 100 100 103 108 109 109 111 111 112 112 112 113 113  114 116 116 117 118 119 120 120 122 122 124 124 124 128 128 128 131 131 131 132 133  133 135 136 138 138 142 146 150

The median would be the average between the position 25 and 26 from the data ordered and we got:

Median= \frac{117+118}{2}=117.5

The mode on this case is the most repeated value 128 with a frequency of 3

Part b

the range is defined as the difference between the maximun and minimum so we got:

Range = Max -Min = 150-88=62

The sample variance can be calculated with this formula:

s^2 = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}

And after calculate we got: s^2 = 225.334

And the deviation is just the square root of the variance and we got:

s= \sqrt{225.334}= 15.011

Part c

For this case we can construct the interval with 1 , 2 and 3 deviation from the mean like this:

y \pm s

Lower = 117.8 -15.011=102.809

Upper = 117.8 +15.011=132.831

y \pm 2s

Lower = 117.8 -2*15.011=87.797

Upper = 117.8 +2*15.011=147.842

y \pm 3s

Lower = 117.8 -3*15.011=72.787

Upper = 117.8 +3*15.011=162.85

Part d

For this case we can calculate the position where we have accumulated 70% of the data below.

50*0.7 = 35

So on the position 35th from the dataset ordered we see that the value is 128 and this value would represent the 70th percentile on this case.

12.5% of what number is 20
Jobisdone [24]
12.5 / 100 = 20 / X
multiply 100 x 10 to get 2000
multiply 12.5 x X to get 12.5X
divide both 2000 and 12.5X by 12.5 to get 2000 / 12.5 = X
2000 / 12.5 = 160 therefore X = 160
check your answer by multiplying 0.125 by 160 to get 20

What is the height of the prism if there is 30 square centimeters and the volume is 90 cubic centimeters
Elis [28]
The height is 3.


The square centimeters show that the length and width multiplied resulted in the 30. (Centimeter times centimeter = square centimeter.) so you divide the 90 by 30 and the answer is 3.

Area=lw
Volume=lwh

Area given = 30
Volume given = 90

90=30h

H=3
