Answer:

Lrge number is 8, Small number is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets use two variables, g and t

$G-T=3\\G+T=13\\$

Lets find G and subsitute the equation

$G-T=3\\G=3+T$

SOlve

$(3+T)+T=13\\3+2T=13\\2T=10\\T=5\\G=8$

CHECK:

$8-5=3\\3=3\\8+5=13\\13=13$

99 % of the trees in our neighborhood are eucalyptus trees. The town planning commission wants to get rid of some of these trees

Brut [27]

Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of trees be T and suppose that this is made up of eucalyptus trees E and other kinds of trees, O.

Then E+O=T, and since 99% of the trees are eucalyptus trees, EE+O=0.99.

Therefore

0.99E+0.99O=E

0.01E=0.99O

E=99O.

Suppose we reduce the number of eucalyptus trees by some amount x and that the remaining number of eucalyptus trees are now 98% of the total trees.

Then we would have E−x(E−x)+O=0.98.

Therefore,

0.02(E−x)=0.98O

0.02E−0.02x=0.98O

0.02x=0.02E−0.98O

x=E−50(0.98)O

x=E−49O

x=E−49(E99)

x=5099E≈0.505050...×E.

So we end up removing a little over half of the eucalyptus trees. EDIT: Forgot to mention - removing 50.505050...% of the eucalyptus trees means that we are removing 0.50505050....×0.99T which is 0.5T or half the trees in the neighborhood.

teacher gives 5 students a multiple choice test, in which each problem is worth 1 point and there is no penalty with negative po

mamaluj [8]

The mean is the average value of a given set of numbers, and the median is the number in the middle of a set of numbers arranged in increasing order

The correct values as response to the questions are;

The minimum possible top score is 21

The maximum possible top score is 32

The minimum of the possible standard deviation is approximately 1.26

The maximum of the possible standard deviation is approximately 11.7

The reason the above values are correct are as follows:

The given parameters are;

The number of students that take the test, n = 5

The amount of points for each problem = 1 point

The median score = 9

The mean Score = 10

Required:

The minimum possible score;

The maximum possible top score

The minimum of the possible standard deviations

The maximum of the possible standard deviations

Solution:

Given that there is a score (the median) which is 9, we have;

The scores obtainable in the test is Scores ≥ 9

Therefore, for a score of 10, we have;

The minimum total points obtainable = Mean × Number of students

Therefore;

Total minimum total points obtainable by the 5 students = 5 × 10 = 50

The minimum possible top score

By arrangement, with the median at the middle, the minimum possible top score is given as follows;

0, 0, 9, 20, 21

Therefore, the minimum possible top score is 21

The maximum possible top score

The maximum possible top score is similarly given by arrangement of the numbers as follows'

0, 0, 9, 9, 32

The maximum possible top score is 32

The minimum standard deviation

By arrangement and selection, the minimum standard deviation is given as follows;

The minimum of the possible standard deviations of (9, 9, 9, 11, 12) ≈ 1.26

The maximum of the possible standard deviation

The maximum of the possible standard deviation is given as follows;

The maximum of the possible standard deviation of (0, 0, 9, 9, 32) ≈ 11.7
