There is no work. i just did it in my head. x = 15 because 15^2 equals 225 and 15+2 = 17 so if 15*15 equals 225 then if you add 30 more that is 255. 30 is equal 2*15 and so you could also say 15*15+(15*2) so 15*17 = 255 so x = 15. you're welcome.

Kamila has two number cubes each labeled 1 to 6. She is going to conduct an experiment by tossing both cubes a total of 150 time
jasenka [17]
A) There are 36 possible outcomes.
b) The probability of a sum of 6 is 5/36.
c) She should roll a sum of 7 45 times.
d) She should roll a sum of 10 45 times.

Explanation
a) There are 6 outcomes for the first die and 6 outcomes for the second one.  By the fundamental counting principle, there are 6*6 = 36 outcomes for both dice together.

b) The ways to get a sum of 6 are:
1&5; 2&4; 3&3; 4&2; 5&1.  There are 5 possibilities out of a total of 36, or 5/36.

c) The ways to get a sum of 7 are:
1&6; 2&5; 3&4; 4&3; 5&2; 6&1.  There are 6 out of 36, or 6/36=1/6.  Since she is rolling the dice 150 times, she should get a sum of 6
1/6(150) = 150/6 = 45 times.

d) The ways to get a sum of 10 or more are:
4&6; 5&5; 6&4; 5&6; 6&5; 6&6

There are 6 ways out of 36, or 6/36 = 1/6.  Since she is rolling the dice 150 times, she should get a sum of 10 or more
1/6(150) = 150/6 = 45 times.

According to the journal Chemical Engineering, an important property of a fiber is its water absorbency. A random sample of 20 p
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a )

sample mean = sum total of given data / no of data

= 415.35 / 20 = 20.76

To calculate the median we arrange the data in ascending order and take the average of 10 th and 11 th term .

= 20.50 + 20.72 / 2

= 20.61

b ) To calculate the 10% trimmed mean , we neglect the largest 10% and smallest 10 % data and then calculate the mean . Here we neglect the first two smallest and last two greatest

(18.92 + 19.25 ..... + 22.43 + 22.85) / 16

= 20.74

c )

We can easily plot the data on number line from 17 to 24

d )

Maximum value of data set = 23.71 and minimum value is 18.04

mean is 20.76 , median is 20.61 and trimmed mean is 20.74

They are between maximum and minimum values of given data . Hence there is no outliers .

The table shows how an elevator 500 feet above the ground is descending at a steady rate.
Snezhnost [94]
We are given that the elevator is descending, so the coefficient of t must be negative. The elevator's initial position is 500 feet above the ground, so this is a positive value of +500. Therefore the only choice that fits these is h(t) = -5t + 500.
