Apply the distributive property to factor out the greatest common factor. 12 + 20 =
guajiro [1.7K]

We can use prime factorization to find the GCF:

12 = 3^1 \cdot 4^1

20 = 4^1 \cdot 5^1


The greatest value both 12 and 20 share is 4. By factoring this out of the equation, we get:

4(3 + 5) = 4(8) = 32

A new curing process developed for a certain type of cement results in a mean compressive strength of 5000 kilograms per square
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

\alpha =0.0668

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

The info given by the problem is:

n=25 the random sample taken

\mu =5000 represent the population mean

\sigma =100 represent the population standard deviation

The critical region on this case is \bar X so then if the value of \bar X \geq 4970 we fail to reject the null hypothesis. In other case we reject the null hypothesis

Null and alternative hypotheses to be tested  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the true mean is 5000, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu = 5000  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 5000  

Let's define the random variable X ="The compressive strength".

We know from the Central Limit Theorem that the distribution for the sample mean is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu , \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

Find the probability of committing a type I error when H0 is true.

The definition for type of error I is reject the null hypothesis when actually is true, and is defined as \alpha the significance level.

So we can define \alpha like this:

\alpha= P(Error I)= P(\bar X

And in order to find this probability we can use the Z score given by this formula:

Z=\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And the value for the probability of error I is givn by:

\alpha= P(\bar X

A series contains 18 numbers and has a sum of 4,185. The last number of the series is 275. What is the first number?
dusya [7]
The sum of arithmetic series is given by:
Sn=n/2(a1+an)
where:
n=number of terms
a1=first term
an=nth term
but
n=18, an=275, Sn=4185
plugging the values in the formula we get:
4185=18/2(a1+275)
simplifying this we get:
4185=9(a1+275)
dividing through by 9 we get:
465=a1+275
thus
a1=465-275
a1=190

Answer: first number is 190
