A ton is equivalent to 1000 pounds so:
the elephant weighs 5000 pounds
5000-570= 4430
The elephants weighs 4430 pounds more.
I think that the answer you are looking for is 0.3
This question can be solved using the Herons equation where
A = SQRT [s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c)]
A = area of the triangle
a, b and c are the sides of the triangle
s = (a+b+c)/2
Since we are given the area, we can express "s" as a function of the third side c. This can be substituted in the original equation so as to obtain an expression to solve for the third side c
s = (4+10+c)/2 = (14+c)/2
using the solver function of the calculator or MS Excel, the third side is 7.21 units
The least common denominator would be 2x^2
that is because you would have to multiply the first fraction by 2x
but you can't just somehow simplify 2x^2, it wouldn't be right
4/x * -4/2x^2
2x*4/(2x*x) * -4/2x^2
8x /2x^2 * -4/2x^2
Then you would complete it
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
The probability that the average age of a randomly selected sample of 100 students will be less than 21.8 years is 0.159
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
mean = μ= 22
standard deviation = σ = 2
n = 100
μx = 22
σx=σ/√n=2/√100=0.2
Therefore, P( x < 21.8)=P(x-μx)/σx<(21.8-22)/0.2
=P(z<-1)
= 0.159
The probability that the average age of a randomly selected sample of 100 students will be less than 21.8 years is 0.159
