Answer:
When x = 15, y= 2
When y= 10, x= 3
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a question in inverse proportion. In this proportion, an increase in one quantity would lead to a decrease in the other and vice versa.
We are to complete the table using the relationship between x and y.
Given:
y is inversely proportional to x = y ∝ 1/x
∝ = proportional to
y ∝ 1/x
y = k × 1/x
Where k = constant of proportionality
To understand the relationship between y and x, we need to find the value of k.
y = k × 1/x
From the table,
When x = 6, y = 5
5 = k × 1/6
5 = k/6
k = 6×5 = 30
y = 30 × 1/x
y = 30/x
The above relationship would enable us find the missing parts.
When x = 15, y= ?
y = 30/15
y = 2
When y= 10, x= ?
10 = 30/x
10x = 30
x = 30/10
x= 3
1) 26 different outcomes are in the sample space.
2) 1 / 26 is the probability that the computer produces the first letter of your first name.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
<u>1) You have to find out the different outcomes in the sample space :</u>
- A "Sample space" is defined as the set of all the possible outcomes of an event.
- Here, the given event is randomly selecting a letter from the alphabets.
Therefore, the sample space must contain all the possible alphabets that can be chosen randomly.
The sample space is the set of all the 26 alphabets in English language.
⇒ Sample space = {A,B,C,D...........,Y,Z}
⇒ 26 different outcomes.
<u>2) The probability the computer produces the first letter of your first name :</u>
Here, the required outcome is getting the first letter of your first name.
Probability = No. of required outcomes / total no. of outcomes.
For example, The name Alex Davis has the first letter of the fist name as alphabet 'A'.
∴ Probability = 1 / 26
Similarly, for any first name there is going to be any one alphabet from the 26 alphabets, thus the probability to get the first letter will be always 1 / 26.
Approximately 70% of the visitors to the theme park are older than about 12.3.
A z-score of about -0.53 is position on the normal distribution for finding the amount above 30% (70%).
Therefore, we can write and solve the following equation:
(x - 15) / 5.2 = -0.53
x - 15 = -2.756
x = 12.244
The closest amount is 12.3.
Answer:
m = 6.57 and n = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this question you will covert the thickness of a dollar to standard notation and then compare the two values.
0.07 =compared to 0.0043 = 0.0657
0.0657 = 6.57 x 10^-2
A quarter is thicker than a dollar by 6.57 x 10^-2.
m = 6.57 and n = -2
