Let's say the larger number is x. that means that the smaller number is x - 3. since you know their sum is x + x - 3, and that is equal to 14. so you have the equation x + x - 3 = 14. combine like terms (x) to get 2x - 3 = 14. add three to both sides to get 2x = 17. divide both sides by two to get x = 17/2. so the larger number is 17/2, and the larger number is 11/2 (17/2 - 3 = 11/2)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The 9th term is the next-to-last term, where the left term of the binomial is raised to the first power, the right term of the binomial is raised to the 8th power (9-1=8), and the multiplier is 9C8 = 9!/(8!·1!) = 9. This product is ...
9·(3x)^1·(-2y)^8 = 6912xy^8
Answer:
1st angle: 128°
2nd angle: 32°
3rd angle: 20°
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start by setting up an equation. 180=x+4x+x-12. It sould all add up to 180 because angles of a triangle always add up to 180, and x represents the second triangle (you use the second angle as x because the other two angles elaborate off of this second angle). Then you solve. Add 12 to 180 and get 192. Then you can add like terms and make it 192=6x (you add the x's together). Lastly divide 192 by 6 and get 32. So the measurement of angle 2 is 32°. Then you multiply 32 by 4 to get the 1st angle measure, being 128. Lastly subtract 12 from 32 and get 20 for angle three. To check you work add the three angle measures you got and see if they =180, if so then you are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:
B) The correlation coefficient is
, which can be determined by plugging the data into a TI-84 calculator.
C) A correlation coefficient of
indicates that the correlation between the independent and dependent variable (x and y in this case) is moderately strong with a positive correlation. The closer
is to 1, the stronger the positive correlation. The closer
is to -1, the stronger the negative correlation. If
is closer to 0, then there's no correlation.
