The sum of three consecutive odd integers is -75. What is the smallest number

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-27

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's call the smallest number: n

Then, the next two consecutive odd numbers would be:

n+2 and n+4 (this is because it's only odd numbers so we add 2)

We know the sum of these is −75 so we can write this equation and solve for n:

n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = -75

n + n + 2 + n + 4 = -75

n + n + n + 2 + 4 = -75

n + n + n + 6 = -75

1n + 1n + 1n + 6 = -75

3n + 6 = -75        Subtract 6 from each side, which cancels the 6 on the left.

3n + 6 - 6 = -75 - 6

3n = -75 - 6

3n = -81       Divide each side by 3

3n/3 = -81/3

n = -81/3

n = -27

n + 2 = -27 + 2 = -25

n + 4 = -27 + 4 = -23

The 3 consecutive odd integers would be:

-27, -25, -23

Let's check our work:

-27 + -25 + -23 = -75    We are correct!

The smallest number is -27

Answers

Answer:

x=8 but with the less than equal to sign

Step-by-step explanation:

you would add 6 to the -6 then add it to the 58. The 6 cancel so then add the 58 and the 6 when you do that you get 64 so now you are left with 8x with same sign and 64 now you would divide both side by 8 and you should get x less than or equal to 8

Answer: 8x -6 < 58

Step-by-step explanation:

8x -6 = -48 and -48 is less then 58 so it’s less than 58!

There are 285 seventh-graders at Greg's school.
If there are 19 more girls than boys, how many seventh-grade boys are there? How many girls are there?

Answers

Answer:

124 boys and 161 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 285 students total. Divide 285 by 2, you get 142.5. Since you can't have half a student, lets round it up to 143. Now, there are 19 more girls than guys, so you would subtract 19 from 143. When you do that, (143-19) you get 124. Then you take 285 and subtract 124. You get 161.

Hope this is correct!

Okay.....let me show my explanation:
285 total students - 19 more girls than boys = 266 boys and girls
266 boys and girls divided by 2 genders = 133 boys and girls
133 boys in total
133 + 19 more girls than boys = 152 girls in total
Check answers:
133 boys + 152 girls = 285 total students
Final answer:
There are 133 seventh grade boys and 152 seventh grade girls

The United States Coast Guard assumes the mean weight of passengers in commercial boats is 185 pounds. The previous value was lower, but was raised after a tragic boating accident. The standard deviation of passenger weights is 26.7 pounds. The weights of a random sample of 48 commercial boat passengers were recorded. The sample mean was determined to be 177.6 pounds. Find the probability that a random sample of passengers will have a weight that is as extreme or more extreme (either above or below the mean) than was observed in this sample. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places. Example: If the answer is 0.8976 then you would enter 0.898 in the answer box.) Note: As extreme or more extreme means that we are not only interested in values that are lower than the ones we observed, but also values that are as far away from the mean as ours in the positive direction.

Answers

Answer:

0.973

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Population mean (μ) = 185

Standard deviation (σ) = 26.7

Sample mean (m) = 177.6

Sample size (n) = 48

P(m > 177.6)

Z = (m - μ) / σ/√n

Z = (177.6 - 185) / (26.7/√48)

Z = −1.920176

P( z > - 1.920) = 1 - p(z < - 1.92)

Using the z table :

1 - p(z < - 1.920) = 1 - 0.0274 = 0.9726

= 0.973

Confidence Interval Application Many people feel that the drying of pavement marking paint is much too slow. You spend several days looking for the fastest drying paint you can find; you plan to measure the time (in seconds) for this paint to dry. From information provided by the paint supplier, you believe the time to dry is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 4 seconds. How many paint samples would you need to test to be able to obtain an estimate of paint drying time that is within 1.5 seconds of the actual mean drying time with a probability of 97%

Answer:

The sample size is  [tex]n =33[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The margin of error is E  =  1.5 seconds

   The standard deviation is  s =  4 seconds

 Given that the confidence level is 97% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

      [tex]\alpha =( 100 -97)\%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.03[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  2.17[/tex]

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as

    [tex]n =[ \frac{Z_{\frac{\sigma }{2 } } * \sigma }{E} ]^2[/tex]

=> [tex]n =[ \frac{2.17 * 4 }{1.5} ]^2[/tex]

F(x) = x^2. What is g(x)

Answers

Answer:

g(x) = - x² - 4 ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the reflection and translation of a function

If the function f(x) reflected across the x-axis, then its image is g(x) = - f(x)If the function f(x) reflected across the y-axis, then its image is g(x) = f(-x)If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the right by h units, then its image is g(x) = f(x - h)  If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the left by h units, then its image is g(x) = f(x + h)  If the function f(x) translated vertically up by k units, then its image is g(x) = f(x) + k  If the function f(x) translated vertically down by k units, then its image is g(x) = f(x) – k  

f(x) = x² is the blue curve

g(x) is its image is the red curve

∵ g(x) is the image of f(x)

∵ f(x) is opened upward

∵ g(x) is opened downward

→ That means the sign of y-coordinates of all points on the blue

   graph are opposite

f(x) is reflected about the x-axis

Its image is - f(x)

∵ The vertex of f(x) is (0, 0)

∵ The vertex of g(x) = (0, -4)

→ That means the function translated 4 units down

- f(x) is translated 4 units down

Its image is - f(x) - 4

∴ g(x) = - f(x) - 4

∵ f(x) = x²

g(x) = - x² - 4

Jina bought a desktop computer and a laptop computer. Before finance charges, the laptop cost $400 more than the desktop. She paid for the computers using two different financing plans. For the desktop the interest rate was 7% per year, and for the laptop it was 8% per year. The total finance charges for one year were $275. How much did each computer cost before finance charges?

Answers

Answer:

2100

Step-by-step explanation:

The laptop costs $300 less than the desktop, so...

let x = cost of laptop

then x+300 = cost of desktop

The total finance charge of $252 is from 7% of the cost of the laptop and 6% of the cost of the desktop:

252+=+.07%28x%29+%2B+.06%28x%2B300%29

252+=+.07x+%2B+.06x+%2B+18

234+=+.13x

1800+=+x

The cost of the laptop is x = $1800;

the cost of the desktop is x+300 = $2100

Use rounding to estimate the product. Is your estimate an underestimate or an overestimate? 8 × 9.82

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In a city with one hundred taxis,1 is blue, and 99 are green. A witness observes a hit-and-run by a taxi at night and recalls that the taxi was blue, so the police arrest the blue taxi driver who was on duty that night.The driver pro claims his in no cence and hires you to defend him in court. You hire a scientist to test the witness' ability to distinguish blue and green taxi's under conditions similar to the night of the accident.The data suggests that the witness sees blue cars as blue 99% of the time,and green cars as blue 2% of the time.

Required:
Use this information to perform an analysis where you show that there is reasonable doubt about your clients' guilt

Answers

Answer:

the probability the car was actually blue as claimed by the witness is 33.33%. This is a low percentage and thus, there is a reasonable doubt about the guilt of the client.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

P(car is blue) = 1% = 0.01

P(car is green) = 99% = 0.99

P(witness said blue | car is blue) = 99% = 0.99

P(witness said blue | car is green) = 2% = 0.02

We will solve this by using Bayes’ formula for inverting conditional probabilities:

Thus;

P(car is blue | witness said blue) =

[P(witness said blue | car is blue) × P(car is blue)] / [(P(witness said blue | car is blue) × P(car is blue)) + (P(witness said blue | car is green) × P(car is green))]

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

(0.99 × 0.01)/((0.99 × 0.01) + (0.02 × 0.99)) = 0.3333

Thus, the probability the car was actually blue as claimed by the witness is 0.3333 or 33.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

A statistician believes that women received more bachelor's degrees than men did last year. To test this claim, she selects colleges and universities randomly and compares the number of bachelor's degrees awarded to men and women. Suppose that data were collected for a random sample of 7 colleges and universities, where each difference is calculated by subtracting the number of degrees earned by men from the number of degrees earned by women. Assume that the number of degrees is normally distributed. The statistician uses the alternative hypothesis Ha:μd>0. Using a test statistic of t≈2.968, which has 6 degrees of freedom, determine the range that contains the p-value.

Answers

Answer:

0.0125

Step-by-step explanation:

The P-value can be calculated by using excel function T.DIST.RT(2.968,6).

Right tail is used in the function because our alternative hypothesis has greater than sign (>) whereas 2.968 represent test statistic value and 6 represents degree of freedom. The resultant p-value from excel function is 0.0125.

Or if we use t- distribution right tail area table, we see that 6 for degree of freedom the value in table is there are two value 2.44691 and 3.14627 which corresponds to p=0.025 and p=0.01. As 2.44691 is smaller than 2.968 so we take p=0.01 against 3.14627. Thus, in this scenario p-value would be 0.01.
