Divide 29 into two parts so that the sun of the squares of the parts is 425.Find the value of each Part.

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

13 and 16

Step-by-step explanation:

let the 2 parts be x and y, then

x + y = 29 → (1) and

x² + y² = 425 → (2)

From (1) → x = 29 - y → (3)

substitute x = 29 - y into (2)

(29 - y)² + y² = 425 ( expand factor )

841 - 58y + y² + y² = 425 ( rearrange into standard form )

2y² - 58y + 416 = 0 ← in standard quadratic form

divide all terms by 2

y² - 29y + 208 = 0

Consider the factors of 208 which sum to - 29

These are - 13 and - 16, hence

(y - 13)(y - 16) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for y

y - 13 = 0 ⇒ y = 13

y - 16 = 0 ⇒ y = 16

substitute these values into (3)

x = 29 - 13 = 16 and x = 29 - 16 = 13

The 2 parts are 13 and 16

The student council is hosting a drawing to raise money for scholarships. They are selling tickets for $9 each and will sell 500

ryzh [129]

Answer:

-$2.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Give that

The selling price per ticket is $9

And the number of tickets sold is 500

So,

There is one grand prize, three $300 second prize, and eleven $40 third prizes

We need to find out the expected value of the profit

$= \frac{1}{500} \times 2000 + \frac{3}{500} \times 300 + \frac{11}{500} \times 40\\\\$

= 4 + 1.8 + 0.88

= 6.68

Now the expected profit is

= $6.68 - $9

= -$2.32

The length of time that an auditor spends reviewing an invoice is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 600 seconds

Bumek [7]

Answer: 11.5%

Explanation:

Since 1 minute = 60 seconds, we multiply 12 minutes by 60 so that 12 minutes = 720 seconds. Thus, we're looking for a probability that the auditor will spend more than 720 seconds.

Now, we get the z-score for 720 seconds by the following formula:

$\text{z-score} = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$

where

$t = \text{time for the auditor to finish his work } = 720 \text{ seconds}
\\ \mu = \text{average time for the auditor to finish his work } = 600 \text{ seconds}
\\ \sigma = \text{standard deviation } = 100 \text{ seconds}$

So, the z-score of 720 seconds is given by:

$\text{z-score} = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}
\\
\\ \text{z-score} = \frac{720 - 600}{100}
\\
\\ \boxed{\text{z-score} = 1.2}$

Let

t = time for the auditor to finish his work
z = z-score of time t

Since the time is normally distributed, the probability for t > 720 is the same as the probability for z > 1.2. In terms of equation:

$P(t \ \textgreater \ 720) 
\\ = P(z \ \textgreater \ 1.2)
\\ = 1 - P(z \leq 1.2)
\\ = 1 - 0.885
\\ \boxed{P(t \ \textgreater \ 720) = 0.115}$

Hence, there is 11.5% chance that the auditor will spend more than 12 minutes in an invoice.
