Answer:

y=9 and x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

ok looking at what they give us in the question we can see that we have two equations. to solve for it be will need to combine them together

note that because they use the word sum we know it's addition

y= x-6

x+y=24

now that we have these we can substitute y=x-6 for the y in our addition equaution such that we have it in terms of one variable:

x+ (x-6) = 24

2x-6=24

2x=30

x=15

now going back we can find Y

15+ y = 24

y=9

Jenna bought two more pairs of jeans. If both of them are blue, what percentage of her jeans is blue now? If both of them are no
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
What you must keep in mind is that there are 4 jeans in total, which represents 100%
 When she bought two jeans, we have the following information:
 If both of them are blue:
 50% of their jeans is blue now, that is:
 x = (50/100) * 4 = 2
 2 jeans are blue.
 This means that she did NOT have 2 blue jeans before.
 Thus:
 If they are not blue: 
 We have 4 jeans that are not blue.
 Then, 0% of her jeans is blue now
 answer:
 0% percentage of her jeans is blue now

Mark owns Siberian Husky sled dogs. He knows from data collected over the years that the weight of the dogs is a normal distribu
kozerog [31]
Calculate the z-score for the given data points in the item using the equation,
 
                             z-score = (x - μ) / σ

where x is the data point, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation.

Substituting,
             (47.7)     z-score = (47.7 - 52.5)/2.4 = -2

This translates to a percentile of 2.28%.

              (54.9)      z-score = (54.9 - 52.5)/2.4 = 1

This translates to a percentile of 84.13%. 

Then, subtract the calculate percentiles to give us the final answer of <em>81.85%.</em> 

Thus, 81.85% of the Siberian Husky sled dogs are expected to weigh between 47.7 and 54.9 lbs.

If s and t are integers greater than 1 and each is a factor of the integer n, which of the following must be a factor of n^{st}
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

E) 1 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that there are two integers (s and t) and they are factors of another integer (n). For example if s = 3 and t = 2, we can have n = 6.

Thus:

n^(st) = 6^(2*3) = 6^6 = (2^6)(3^6)

For the first condition: s^t = 3^2 is a factor of (2^6)(3^6)

For the second condition: (st)^2 = (3*2)^2 = 6^2 is a factor of 6^6

For the third condition: s+t = 3+2 = 5 is not a factor of 6^6 or (2^6)(3^6)

Therefore, only 1 and 2 are factors of n^(st)
