Answer:

Relatively prime numbers have a GCF of 1. The numbers 38 and 40 have a GCF of 2, so they are not relatively prime.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you say that two numbers are relatively prime, it means that both numbers do not have a common factor except 1. Stephen is incorrect because 38 and 40 are both multiples of 2.

Find the values of a and b that make the second expression equivalent to the first expression. Assume that x > 0 and y ≥ 0. S

mixas84 [53]

Answer:What was done from the first to the second equation was that the fraction was simplified. 126 and 32 have a common factors of 2.

126/32=(63*2)/(16*2)

The 2s in the top and bottom can cancel out, leaving the fraction 63/16.

In addition, since there are x terms on the top and bottom, they cancelled out as well.

x/x^3=1/x^2

This leaves an x^2 term on the bottom.

Thus, if a is 16, and b is 2, you will have an equivalent form of the fraction.

The point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (–4, –3) and (12, 1) is y – 1 = y minus 1 equals StartFract

Zina [86]

Answer:

The equation of the line in standard form is

$x-4y=8$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in point slope form is

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

we have

$y-1=(1/4)(x-12)$

$m=1/4$

$(12, 1)$

step 2

Find the equation of the line in standard form

The equation of the line in standard form is

$Ax+By=C$

where

A is positive integer

B and C are integers

we have

$y-1=(1/4)(x-12)$

Multiply by 4 both sides to remove the fraction

$4y-4=(x-12)$

$x-4y=12-4\\x-4y=8$

Answer:

.0625 or A

Step-by-step explanation:

The average weight of a chicken egg is 2.25 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.2 ounces. You take a random sample of a dozen

Answer:

$P(\bar X$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Let X the random variable that represent interest on this case, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(\mu,\sigma)$
