Answer:  17 and 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X and Y be the two numbers.

---------------

X + Y = 42  [sum of two numbers is 42]

X - Y = 8  [their difference is 8]

-------------------

Rearrange the last equation to

X = 8 + Y

Now enter that into the 1st equation:

X + Y = 42

(8+Y) + Y = 42

2Y = 34

<u>Y = 17</u>

Since X - Y = 8,

  X = 8 + 17

  <u>X = 25</u>

===

X + Y = ?

17 + 25 = 42  <em>Checks</em>

X - Y = ?

25 - 17 = 8  <em>Checks</em>

1. Each month, the city of Accra generates an average of 28 pounds of waste. Assume the variable is approximately normally distr
Molodets [167]

1. Answer: given: an average of 28 pounds

a.

Find z values corresponding to 27 and 31:

z=%2827-28%29%2F2=-1%2F2=-0.5

z=%2831-28%29%2F2=3%2F2=1.5

Find the area between z+=+-0.5 and z=+1.5

Table E gives us an area of 0.9332-0.30=0.6247=> The probability is 62.47%

b.

Find z values corresponding to 30.2

z=%2830.2-28%29%2F2=2.2%2F2=1.1 Find the area to the right of z+=1.1

it gives you an area of 0.1357=> The probability is 13.57%

The value of a book is $150 and decreases at a rate of 4% per year. Find the value of the book after 12 years
nevsk [136]
If it decreases at 4% every year, then its value becomes:

100% - 4% = 96% = 96/100 = 0.96

At the end of the 1 year its value becomes:  150*(0.96)

At the end of the 2 years its value becomes:  150*(0.96)*(0.96) = 150*(0.96)²

At the end of the 3 years its value becomes:  150*(0.96)*(0.96)*(0.96) = 150(0.96)³

So similarly at the end of 12 years, its value becomes 150*(0.96)¹²

=50*(0.96)¹²    simplify with calculator.

<span>≈ 91.91

Value at the end of 12 years becomes ≈ $</span><span>91.91

I hope this helps.
