the product of two consecutive positive integer is 306
Answers
Answer:
[tex]\Large \boxed{\sf 17 \ and \ 18}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The product means multiplication.
There are two positive consecutive integers.
Let the first positive consecutive integer be x.
Let the second positive consecutive integer be x+1.
[tex](x) \times (x+1) =306[/tex]
Solve for x.
Expand brackets.
[tex]x^2 +x =306[/tex]
Subtract 306 from both sides.
[tex]x^2 +x -306=306-306[/tex]
[tex]x^2 +x -306=0[/tex]
Factor left side of the equation.
[tex](x-17)(x+18)=0[/tex]
Set factors equal to 0.
[tex]x-17=0[/tex]
[tex]x=17[/tex]
[tex]x+18=0[/tex]
[tex]x=-18[/tex]
The value of x cannot be negative.
Substitute x=17 for the second consecutive positive integer.
[tex](17)+1[/tex]
[tex]18[/tex]
The two integers are 17 and 18.
The product of two consecutive positive integers is 306.
We need to find the integers
solution : Let two consecutive numbers are x and (x + 1)
A/C to question,
product of x and (x + 1) = 306
⇒x(x + 1) = 306
⇒x² + x - 306 = 0
⇒ x² + 18x - 17x - 306 = 0
⇒x(x + 18) - 17(x + 18) = 0
⇒(x + 18)(x - 17) = 0⇒ x = 17 and -18
so x = 17 and (x +1) = 18
Therefore the numbers are 17 and 18.

Answers
Answer:a
a
[tex]336.04 < \mu < 443.96[/tex]
b
The margin of error will increase
c
The margin of error will decreases
d
The 99% confidence interval is [tex]0.4107 < p < 0.4293[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size [tex]n = 19[/tex]
The sample mean is [tex]\= x = \$\ 390[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = \$ \ 120[/tex]
Given that the confidence level is 95% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as
[tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 5 \%[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table
So
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]
The margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{120}{\sqrt{19} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 53.96[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval is
[tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]
=> [tex]390 - 53.96 < \mu < 390 - 53.96[/tex]
=> [tex]336.04 < \mu < 443.96[/tex]
When the confidence level increases the [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex] also increases which increases the margin of error hence the confidence level becomes wider
Generally the sample size mathematically varies with margin of error as follows
[tex]n \ \ \alpha \ \ \frac{1}{E^2 }[/tex]
So if the sample size increases the margin of error decrease
The sample proportion is mathematically represented as
[tex]\r p = \frac{210}{500}[/tex]
[tex]\r p = 0.42[/tex]
Given that the confidence level is 0.99 the level of significance is [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]
The critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table is
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.58[/tex]
Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }* \sqrt{ \frac{\r p (1- \r p )}{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 0.42 * \sqrt{ \frac{0.42 (1- 0.42 )}{ 500} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 0.0093[/tex]
The 99% confidence interval is
[tex]\r p - E < p < \r p + E[/tex]
[tex]0.42 - 0.0093 < p < 0.42 + 0.0093[/tex]
[tex]0.4107 < p < 0.4293[/tex]

The average score of all golfers for a particular course has a mean of 70and a standard deviation of 5.Suppose 100golfers played the course today. Find the probability that the average score of the 100golfers exceeded 71.Round to four decimal places.
Answers
Answer:
0.9773
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we start by calculating the z-scores statistic
Mathematically;
z-score = (x-mean)/SD/√n
From the question, we have;
x = 71, mean = 70, SD = 5 and n = 100
Plugging these values in the equation above, we have;
z-score = (71-70)/5/√100 = 1/5/10 = 1/0.5 = 2
So the probability we want to calculate is that;
P(z > 2)
This is obtainable from the standard normal distribution table
P(z > 2) = 0.97725 which is 0.9773 to 4 decimal places

Given
Blue die and Red Die
Required
Sizes of sets
- [tex]|E\ n\ B|[/tex]
- [tex]|B|[/tex]
The question stated the following;
B = Event that blue die comes up with 6
E = Event that both dice come even
So first; we'll list out the sample space of both events
[tex]B = \{6\}[/tex]
[tex]E = \{2,4,6\}[/tex]
Calculating the size of |E n B|
[tex]|E n B| = \{2,4,6\}\ n\ \{6\}[/tex]
[tex]|E n B| = \{2,4,6\}[/tex]
The size = 3 because it contains 3 possible outcomes
Calculating the size of |B|
[tex]B = \{6\}[/tex]
The size = 1 because it contains 1 possible outcome

Varia is studying abroad in Europe. She is required pay $3,500 (in US dollars) per year to the university; however, she must pay in euros. How many euros can Varia expect to pay per month to the university?
Answers
Answer: 247.92 euros
Step-by-step explanation:
Given, Varia is required pay $3,500 (in US dollars) per year to the university.
If she must pay in euros , then we convert $3,500 into euros.
Current rate : 1 US dollar = 0.85 euro
Then, $3,500 = ( 0.85 x 3500) euros
= 2975 euros
She can expect 2975 euros to pay per year.
Also, [tex]2975\div 12\approx247.92[/tex] [ 1 years = 12 months]
Hence, She can expect 247.92 euros to pay per month to the university.

Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Garden: [tex]x^2+18x+81[/tex]
One Bag: [tex]x^2 - 81[/tex]
Requires
Determine the number of bags to cover the whole garden
This is calculated as thus;
[tex]Bags = \frac{x^2+18x+81}{x^2 - 81}[/tex]
Expand the numerator
[tex]Bags = \frac{x^2+9x+9x+81}{x^2 - 81}[/tex]
[tex]Bags = \frac{x(x+9)+9(x+9)}{x^2 - 81}[/tex]
[tex]Bags = \frac{(x+9)(x+9)}{x^2 - 81}[/tex]
Express 81 as 9²
[tex]Bags = \frac{(x+9)(x+9)}{x^2 - 9\²}[/tex]
Evaluate as difference of two squares
[tex]Bags = \frac{(x+9)(x+9)}{(x - 9)(x+9)}[/tex]
[tex]Bags = \frac{(x+9)}{(x - 9)}[/tex]
Hence, the number of bags is [tex]Bags = \frac{(x+9)}{(x - 9)}[/tex]

the temperature at which water freezes on the celsius scale is 0 degrees C. It freezes at 32 degrees F on the Fahrenheit scale, write opposites fo these two numbers as integers.
Answers
Answer:
If we have an integer number N, the opposite of N will be:
-1*N = -N.
Then, the opposite of 0°C is:
-1*0°C = 0°C.
The number 0 is it's own opposite.
And for 32F, the opposite is:
-1*32F = -32F
So, while the numbers 0°C and 32F physically represent the same thing (the same temperature), mathematically, they behave differently.

Fifteen chaperones went on a field trip with 225 students. Which fraction represents the number of chaperones to students on the field trip
Answers
Answer:
15/225
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of chaperones for the group of students can be represented with a ratio - 15:225 or 15/225.
Because there are 15 chaperones for the 225 students, you can state what the ratio does - for every 225 students, there are 15 chaperones.
However, 15/225 can be reduced to 1/15, so for every 15 students, there is 1 chaperone.

Answers
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
An arithmetic sequence increases by the same amount every time through addition or subtraction. There is a common difference.
A: -2, 4, -6, 8, ... If there were a common difference, the numbers would not switch between being positive and back to negative. The numbers would either keep going positive or keep going negative.
B: 2, 4, 8, 16, ... The common difference between 16 and 8 is 16 - 8 = 8. The difference between 8 and 4 is 8 - 4 = 4. Since the difference changes between the numbers, this is not an arithmetic sequence.
C. -8, -6, -4, -2, ... The common difference between -2 and -4 is -2 - (-4) = -2 + 4 = 2. The difference between -4 and -6 is -4 - (-6) = -4 + 6 = 2. The difference between -6 and -8 is -6 - (-8) = -6 + 8 = 2. Since the common difference is always two, this is an arithmetic sequence.

Given the following hypotheses: H0: μ = 490 H1: μ ≠ 490 A random sample of 15 observations is selected from a normal population. The sample mean was 495 and the sample standard deviation 9. Using the 0.01 significance level:
a.) State the decision rule.
b.) Compute the value of the test statistic.
c.) What is your decision regarding the null hypothesis?
Answers
Answer:
We conclude that the population mean is equal to 490.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a random sample of 15 observations is selected from a normal population. The sample mean was 495 and the sample standard deviation 9.
Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean.
So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] = 490 {means that the population mean is equal to 490}
Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu\neq[/tex] 490 {means that the population mean is different from 490}
The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation;
T.S. = [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ~ [tex]t_1_4[/tex]
where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean = 495
s = sample standard deviation = 9
n = sample of observations = 15
So, the test statistics = [tex]\frac{495-490}{\frac{9}{\sqrt{15} } }[/tex] ~ [tex]t_1_4[/tex]
= 2.152
The value of t-test statistics is 2.152.
Now, at a 0.01 level of significance, the t table gives a critical value of -2.977 and 2.977 at 14 degrees of freedom for the two-tailed test.
Since the value of our test statistics lies within the range of critical values of t, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as the test statistics will not fall in the rejection region.
Therefore, we conclude that the population mean is equal to 490.
What is the intersection of the lines given by 2y=-x+3 and -y=5x+1? Enter the answer as an ordered pair.
Answers
Answer:
(-5/9, 16/9)
Step-by-step explanation:
2y = -x + 3
-y = 5x + 1
To find the intersection, you need to substitute the y-value from the second equation into the first equation. Rearrange the second equation so that it is equal to y.
-y = 5x + 1
-1(-y) = -1(5x + 1)
y = -5x - 1
Substitute this equation into the y-value of the first equation.
2y = -x + 3
2(-5x - 1) = -x + 3
-10x - 2 = -x + 3
(-10x - 2) + 2 = (-x + 3) + 2
-10x = -x + 5
(-10x) + x = (-x + 5) + x
-9x = 5
(-9x)/(-9) = (5)/(-9)
x = -5/9
Plug this x value into one of the equations and solve for y.
2y = -x + 3
2y = -(-5/9) + 3
2y = 5/9 + 3
2y = 32/9
(2y)/2 = (32/9)/2
y = 32/18 = 16/9
The ordered pair is (-5/9, 16/9).

A hockey team is convinced that the coin used to determine the order of play is weighted. The team captain steals this special coin and flips it 14 times to evaluate the hypothesis that the coin is weighted, and it shows up heads 12 times. Test this hypothesis (use alpha=.05).
1. What is the appropriate test?
2. State the null hypothesis:
3. State the alternative hypothesis:
4. Find the critical value:
5. Calculate the obtained statistic:
6. Make a decision:
7. What does your decision mean
Answers
Answer:
Since x= 12 (0.006461) does not fall in the critical region so we accept our null hypothesis and conclude that the coin is fair.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p be the probability of heads in a single toss of the coin. Then our null hypothesis that the coin is fair will be formulated as
H0 :p 0.5 against Ha: p ≠ 0.5
The significance level is approximately 0.05
The test statistic to be used is number of heads x.
Critical Region: First we compute the probabilities associated with X the number of heads using the binomial distribution
Heads (x) Probability (X=x) Cumulative Decumulative
0 1/16384 (1) 0.000061 0.000061
1 1/16384 (14) 0.00085 0.000911
2 1/16384 (91) 0.00555 0.006461
3 1/16384(364) 0.02222
4 1/16384(1001) 0.0611
5 1/16384(2002) 0.122188
6 1/16384(3003) 0.1833
7 1/16384(3432) 0.2095
8 1/16384(3003) 0.1833
9 1/16384(2002) 0.122188
10 1/16384(1001) 0.0611
11 1/16384(364) 0.02222
12 1/16384(91) 0.00555 0.006461
13 1/16384(14) 0.00085 0.000911
14 1/16384(1) 0.000061 0.000061
We use the cumulative and decumulative column as the critical region is composed of two portions of area ( probability) one in each tail of the distribution. If alpha = 0.05 then alpha by 2 - 0.025 ( area in each tail).
We observe that P (X≤2) = 0.006461 > 0.025
and
P ( X≥12 ) = 0.006461 > 0.025
Therefore true significance level is
∝= P (X≤0)+P ( X≥14 ) = 0.000061+0.000061= 0.000122
Hence critical region is (X≤0) and ( X≥14)
Computation x= 12
Since x= 12 (0.006461) does not fall in the critical region so we accept our null hypothesis and conclude that the coin is fair.

Find the value of x and the length of segment AC if point B is between A and C.
AB = 5x, BC = 9x-2, AC = 11x + 7.6
Value of x=
Length of AC is
Answers
Answer: x=3.2 AC= 42.8
Step-by-step explanation:
As point B lies at segment AC AC=AB+BC
Otherwise we can write the equation
5x+9x-2=11x+7.6
14x-2=11x+7.6
14x-2+2=11x+7.6+2
14x=11x+9.6
14x-11x=11x-11x+9.6
3x=9.6
x=9.6:3
x=3.2
AC= 11*x+7.6= 11*3.2+7.6=35.2+7.6=42.8
