Answer:

The sum of two numbers is 240. The larger number is 6 less than twice the smaller. Find the numbers.

----------

Let the smaller be "x" ; Larger is "2x-6"

EQUATION:

x + 2x-6 = 240

3x= 246

x = 82 (smaller)

2x-6 = 158 (larger)

griffin ordered a pair of sneakers online. he had 16 credit that he applied toward the purchase, and then he used a credit card

Doss [256]

Answer: Griffin charge $79.854 to his credit card when he bought the sneakers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Griffin ordered a pair of sneakers online.

Value of each credit point = 1 cent

Then , value of 16 credit points = 16 cents = $0.16 [1$ = 100 cents]

Cost of shoes = Rs $80

Charge to credit card = (Cost of shoes) - (Value of 16 credit points)

= $(80-0.16)

= $79.84

Hence, Griffin charge $79.854 to his credit card when he bought the sneakers.

What is the interquartile range (IQR) of the following data set?

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Arrange data set

19, 4, 17, 3, 6, 5,5, 3, 11, 12, 3, 7, 15, 8, 8, 10,5, 3, 12, 41, 36

in ascending order

3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 10, 11, 12, 12, 15, 17, 19, 36, 41

The median is $Q_2=8$

$Q_1=\dfrac{4+5}{2}=4.5$

$Q_3=\dfrac{12+15}{2}=13.5$

Thus, the interquartile range is

$Q_3-Q_1=13.5-4.5=9$

Write an explicit formula for an,the Nth term of the sequence 4,12,36

Rudik [331]

Answer:

$3^{n}+3^{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sequence is geometric (it multiplies the previous number each time). The nth term sequence would be $x^n + yn$

Because the sequence multiplies by 3 each time, The base number in that equation would be $3^n +yn$ .

So $3^n$ of the equation would be:
$3, 9, 27$ .

Compare the 2 equations:
4, 12, 36

3, 9 ,27

The difference between the 2 equations is: 1, 3, 9 which itself is a geometric sequence so the nth term of this new equation is: $3^{n-1}$ .

Combine these 2 equations together and you get:

$3^{n}+3^{n-1}$ .
