Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the ages of a Mother and her son is 78 , three years ago the mother is five times as old as the son, what is their present ages?
To solve this , let the age of the mother be x and the age of the son be y , from the first statement :
x + y = 78
Three years ago , the mother will be x- 3 and the son will be y - 3 , from the second statement:
x - 3 = 5 ( y-3)
x- 3 = 5y - 15
x - 5y = -12
The resulting equations are
x + y = 78
x - 5y = -12
This is called a simultaneous linear equation , that means it is a linear equation.
The side of a square is xcm , if the difference between the area and the perimeter is 12 , find the legth of its side.
Interpretation:
The formula for the area of a square is
and the perimeter is 4l , from the question , we have
- 4x = 12
This is not a linear equation , it is simply a quadratic equation , so the situation is non linear
It is not a circle but you can find the equation of the ellipse.
To do this we need to work out the major and minor radii and the centre
The centre is at (9, 7)
The major (y) radius is 1 and the minor (x) radius is 5
Therefore the equation is (x-9)/5 + (y-7)/1 = 1
Answer:
-3 ≤y≤6
Step-by-step explanation:
The range is the output values or the y values
The y values go from -3 to 6 including these values
-3 ≤y≤6
Answer:
a) It can be used because np and n(1-p) are both greater than 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Binomial distribution and approximation to the normal:
The binomial distribution has two parameters:
n, which is the number of trials.
p, which is the probability of a success on a single trial.
If np and n(1-p) are both greater than 5, the normal approximation to the binomial can appropriately be used.
In this question:

So, lets verify the conditions:
np = 201*0.45 = 90.45 > 5
n(1-p) = 201*(1-0.45) = 201*0.55 = 110.55 > 5
Since both np and n(1-p) are greater than 5, the approximation can be used.
Yes because no same x-valu resulted in different y-values.
