The  two numbers are 8 and 13 and the system of equations are x + y = 21 and xy = 104

<h3>System of equations</h3>

Let the two unknown numbers be x and y

If the sum of the numbers is 21, hence;

x + y = 21

x = 21 - y

If the product is 104, then;

xy = 104
(21-y)y = 104

21y - y^2 = 104
y^2-21y + 104 = 0

Factorize the result

y^2-8y - 13y+ 104 = 0
y(y-8) - 13()y-8) = 0
y = 13 and 8

Hence the two numbers are 8 and 13 and the system of equations are x + y = 21 and xy = 104

Answer:

0.0078125

Step-by-step explanation:

If the probability of flipping a fair coin (mentally) correctly for 1 row is 0.5, then the probability of flipping it correctly for 2 rows is

0.5 * 0.5 = 0.25

for 3 rows: 0.5*0.5*0.5 = 0.125

...

For 7 rows:

0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5*0.5 = 0.5^7 = 0.0078125

Bingel [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The parameter of interest in this exercise is the population proportion of Asians that would welcome a person of other races in their family. Using the race of the welcomed one as categorizer we can define 3 variables:

X₁: Number of Asians that would welcome a white person into their families.

X₂: Number of Asians that would welcome a Latino person into their families.

X₃: Number of Asians that would welcome a black person into their families.

Now since we are working with the population that identifies as "Asians" the sample size will be: n= 251

Since the sample size is large enough (n≥30) you can apply the Central Limit Theorem and approximate the variable distribution to normal.

Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{0.975}= 1.965

1. 95% CI for Asians that would welcome a white person.

If 79% would welcome a white person, then the expected value is:

E(X)= n*p= 251*0.79= 198.29

And the Standard deviation is:

V(X)= n*p*(1-p)= 251*0.79*0.21=41.6409

√V(X)= 6.45

You can construct the interval as:

E(X)±Z₁₋α/₂*√V(X)

198.29±1.965*6.45

[185.62;210.96]

With a 95% confidence level, you'd expect that the interval [185.62; 210.96] contains the number of Asian people that would welcome a White person in their family.

2. 95% CI for Asians that would welcome a Latino person.

If 71% would welcome a Latino person, then the expected value is:

E(X)= n*p= 251*0.71= 178.21

And the Standard deviation is:

V(X)= n*p*(1-p)= 251*0.71*0.29= 51.6809

√V(X)= 7.19

You can construct the interval as:

E(X)±Z₁₋α/₂*√V(X)

178.21±1.965*7.19

[164.08; 192.34]

With a 95% confidence level, you'd expect that the interval [164.08; 192.34] contains the number of Asian people that would welcome a Latino person in their family.

3. 95% CI for Asians that would welcome a Black person.

If 66% would welcome a Black person, then the expected value is:

E(X)= n*p= 251*0.66= 165.66

And the Standard deviation is:

V(X)= n*p*(1-p)= 251*0.66*0.34= 56.3244

√V(X)= 7.50

You can construct the interval as:

E(X)±Z₁₋α/₂*√V(X)

165.66±1.965*7.50

[150.92; 180.40]

With a 95% confidence level, you'd expect that the interval [150.92; 180.40] contains the number of Asian people that would welcome a Black person in their family.

I hope it helps!

A rectangular piece of sheet metal has a length that is 6 in. less than twice the width. a square piece 3 in. on a side is cut f
m_a_m_a [10]
The original width would be 19 and the original length would be 32.

Let w be the width.  Then 2w-6 would be the length.  However, after cutting a 3-inch square from each corner, both the width and length left over to fold into a box would be 6 inches smaller; thus the dimensions would be w-6 and 2w-6-6 or 2w-12.  

Since the section cut out is 3 inches long, 3 will be the height of the box.

Volume is found by multiplying the length, width and height of the box; thus we have:

1014=(w-6)(2w-12)(3)

We multiply the binomials and have:
1014 = [w*2w-12*w-6*2w-6(-12)](3)
1014 = (2w²-12w-12w+72)(3)
1014 = (2w²-24w+72)(3)
1014 = 6w² - 72w + 216

When solving a quadratic equation, we want it set equal to 0.  Subtract 1014 from each side:

1014-1014 = 6w² - 72w + 216 - 1014
0 = 6w² - 72w - 798

We will use the quadratic formula to solve this:

w=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}&#10;\\&#10;\\=\frac{--72\pm \sqrt{(-72)^2-4(6)(-798)}}{2(6)}&#10;\\&#10;\\=\frac{72\pm \sqrt{5184--19152}}{12}&#10;\\&#10;\\=\frac{72\pm \sqrt{5184+19152}}{12}&#10;\\&#10;\\=\frac{72\pm \sqrt{24336}}{12}&#10;\\&#10;\\=\frac{72\pm 156}{12}&#10;\\&#10;\\=\frac{72+156}{12} \text{ or } \frac{72-156}{12}&#10;\\&#10;\\=\frac{228}{12} \text{ or } \frac{-84}{12}=19 \text{ or } -7

Since we cannot have a negative number for a measurement, 19 has to be the width; then 2(19)-6 = 32 would be the length.
