The value of n from the triangle = 2.5

<h3>Calculation of perimeter of triangle</h3>

Perimeter of a triangle= a +b+c

Where,

a= n

b= 5n - 6

C= 2n + 1

P= 15

Therefore n

15 = n + 2n + 1 + 5n - 6

15 = 8n-5

8n= 15+5

8n = 20

n= 20/8

n= 2.5

Therefore, the value of n = 2.5

A regular number cube is rolled. What is the probability that an odd number will not be rolled?

mixer [17]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular die has 3 odd numbers (1, 3, and 5) and 3 even numbers (2, 4, and 6). The question asks for the probability that an odd number will not be rolled. This is the same as asking the probability of an even number being rolled. Since we have 6 numbers in our data set and 3 are even, we can deduce that 1/2 of them are even and the probability of an even number being rolled is 1/2.

Find the median<br> 45. 28 37 30 42 44 35 40

jasenka [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The median means the number in the middle, I look at the word median and think mid! So by ordering the numbers from highest to lowest you cross one off from each end back and forth! So you cross off 45, then 28, 44 then 30, 42 then 35 leaving one last number 40!! That is your median :)

In a recent year, a sample of grade 8 Washington State public school students taking a mathematics assessment test had a mean sc

Daniel [21]

Answer:

The number is $N =1147$ students

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population mean is $\mu = 281$

The standard deviation is $\sigma = 34.4$

The sample size is n = 2000

percentage of the would you expect to have a score between 250 and 305 is mathematically represented as

$P(250 < X < 305 ) = P(\frac{ 250 - 281}{34.4 } < \frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{ 305 - 281}{34.4 } )$

Generally

$\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z (Standardized \ value \ of \ X )$

$P(250 < X < 305 ) = P(-0.9012< Z$

$P(250 < X < 305 ) = P(z_2 < 0.698 ) - P(z_1 < -0.9012)$

From the z table the value of $P( z_2 < 0.698) = 0.75741$

and $P(z_1 < -0.9012) = 0.18374$

$P(250 < X < 305 ) = 0.75741 - 0.18374$

$P(250 < X < 305 ) = 0.57$

The percentage is $P(250 < X < 305 ) = 57\%$

The number of students that will get this score is

$N = 2000 * 0.57$

$N =1147$

The augmented matrix of a system of equations has been transformed to an equivalent matrix inâ€‹ row-echelon form. Usingâ€‹ x, y

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer: The system of equations is:

x + 2y + 2 = 4

y - 3z = 9

z = - 2

The solution is: x = -22; y = 15; z = -2;

Step-by-step explanation: ONe way of solving a system of equations is using the Gauss-Jordan Elimination.

The method consists in transforming the system into an augmented matrix, which is writing the system in form of a matrix and then into a <u>Row</u> <u>Echelon</u> <u>Form,</u> which satisfies the following conditions:

There is a row of all zeros at the bottom of the matrix;
The first non-zero element of any row is 1, which called leading role;
The leading row of the first row is to the right of the leading role of the previous row;

For this question, the matrix is a Row Echelon Form and is written as:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&2\\0&1&3\\0&0&1\end{array}\right]$ $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4\\9\\-2\end{array}\right]$

or in system form:

x + 2y + 2z = 4

y + 3z = 9

z = -2

Now, to determine the variables:

z = -2

y + 3(-2) = 9

y = 15

x + 30 - 4 = 4

x = - 22

The solution is (-22,15,-2).
