Answer:

20.5 and 21.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It says 2 significant figures so the least it can possibly be is 0.5 less and the most it can be is 0.5 more as if it was, lets say 20.4 it would round down to 20 not 21.

Answer:

Each book weighs 2.5 pounds.

Suppose that the value of a stock varies each day from $10.82 to $25.17 with a uniform distribution. Find the third quartile, i.
Zarrin [17]

Answer: Third quartile =$21.58

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be value of a stock .

For uniform distribution,

probability density function =  \dfrac{1}{b-a}=\dfrac{1}{25.17-10.82}=\dfrac1{14.35}=\dfrac{100}{1435}

Let a be the stock value such that P(x<a) =75% or 0.75

\Rightarrow\ \int ^{a}_{10.82}f(x)\ dx=0.75\\\\\Rightarrow\ \int ^{a}_{10.82}\dfrac{100}{1435}\ dx=0.75\\\\\Rightarrow\dfrac{100}{1435}[x]^{a}_{10.82}=0.75\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{100}{1435}(a-10.82)=0.75\\\\\Rightarrow a-10.82=0.75\times\dfrac{1435}{100}\\\\\Rightarrow a-10.82=10.7625\\\\\Rightarrow a= 10.7625+10.82= $$21.5825\approx $$21.58

Hence, 75% of all days the stock is below $21.58 or Third quartile =$21.58 .

A father's age now is three times the age that his son was four years ago. In 12 years, the father will be twice as old as his s
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Now, the father is 60, and the son is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Now:

Father's age = f

Son's age = s

4 years ago:

Father's age = f - 4

Son's age = s - 4

In 12 years:

Father's age = f + 12

Son's age = s + 12

Now:

f = 3(s - 4)

In 12 years:

f + 12 = 2(s + 12)

We have 2 equations that we can solve in a system of equations.

f = 3(s - 4)

f + 12 = 2(s + 12)

f = 3s - 12

f + 12 = 2s + 24

f = 3s - 12

f = 2s + 12

Since above both equations are in terms of f, set the right sides equal and solve for s.

3s - 12 = 2s + 12

s = 24

f = 3(s - 4)

f = 3(24 - 4)

f = 3(20)

f = 60

Now, the father is 60, and the son is 24.
