find two consecutive ODD numbers whose sum is 144.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Smaller=x Larger=x+2

x+x+2=144

2x+2=144

2x+2-2=144-2

2x=142

2x/2=142/2

x=71

Smaller=71

Larger=73

Check: 71+73=144

Step-by-step explanation:

please mark me as the brainliest answer and please follow me for more answers to your questions.

Answer 2

Answer:

71 and 73

Step-by-step explanation:

First, set up an equation: let x be the smaller number, and let x+2 be the bigger one.

Then, since these two number's sum is 144, we can set up the equation x+(x+2) = 144.

Solve for x: 2x+2=144 -> 2x = 142 -> x = 71

As the smaller number is defined as x, we solved for the smaller number: 71. The bigger number is defined as x+2, so the bigger number is just going to be 2 more than the smaller number, which is 73.

Therefore, we arrive at our answers 71 and 73.

What is the probability that a randomly chosen male voter is a registered Democrat? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Answers

Answer:

49%

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, you would just divide the "male democrat" category and the "male total" category and then move the decimal over 2 spaces, because you need to multiply by 100 to turn your answer into a percent, so:

[tex]\frac{600}{1222}=0.49[/tex]

Then once you multiply by 100, or move the decimal to the left 2 spaces, it becomes:

The visa card is giving 5% cash back on all grocery and restaurant purchases, and 1% for all other purchases. You charge $2,000 a month and 1/4 is for grocery and restaurants. Use this information to find your monthly cash back amount.

Answers

2000 / 4 = 500
500 + 5% = 25
1500 + 1%= 15
Total cash back = 40$

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cashback from grocery and restaurant purchases = 500 * 0.05 = 25$

Total cashback from other purchases

= 1500 * 0.01

= 15$

Total cashback = $ 40

What is a sequence?

The sequence is a pattern of placing the values in a specified manner.

Here,
Assuming that the pattern is to add 3 cupcakes each day, the continuation of the pattern would be:

Two days ago: 6 cupcakes

Yesterday: 9 cupcakes

Today: 12 cupcakes

Tomorrow: 15 cupcakes

Day after tomorrow: 18 cupcakes

In five days: 21 cupcakes

How much money should Mr. Jones invest in each type of stock to maximize his total expected​ yield?

Answers

Answer:

Since the numbers are missing, I looked for a similar question:

Mr. Jones has $9000 to invest in three types of stocks: low-risk, medium-risk and high-risk. He invests according to the following rules: the amount invested in low-risk stocks will be at most $1000 more than the amount invested in medium-risk stocks. At least $7000 will be invested in a combination of low- and medium-risk stocks. No more than $7000 will be invested in a combination of medium- and high-risk stocks. The expected annual returns are 6% for low-risk stocks, 7% for medium-risk stocks, and 8% for high-risk stocks. How much should he invest in each type of stock to maximize his total expected yield?

let:

L = low risk stocks

M = medium risk stocks

H = high risk stocks  

maximize 0.06L + 0.07M + 0.08H

L + M + H ≤ 9000

L ≥ M + 1000

L + M ≥ 7000

M + H ≤ 7000

using solver, the optimal solution = 4,000L + 3,000M + 2,000H , which yields a maximum profit = $610

Mr. Jones should invest $4,000 in low risk stocks, $3,000 in medium risk stocks and $2,000 in high risk stocks.

A superstar major league baseball player just signed a new deal that pays him a record amount of money. The star has driven in an average of 110 runs over the course of his career, with a standard deviation of 31 runs. An average player at his position drives in 80 runs. What is the probability the superstar bats in fewer runs than an average player next year

Answers

Answer:

0.1667

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Average / mean runs (m) = 110 runs

Standard deviation (σ) = 31 runs

Number of runs driven in by an average player in his position = 80

The probability the superstar bats in fewer runs than an average player next year will be the :

P(x < 80)

Zscore = (x - mean) / σ

Zscore = (80 - 110) / 31

Zscore = - 30 / 31

Zscore = - 0.9677419

P(Z < 0.9677419) = 0.1666 ( from z probability calculator)

= 0.1667

Answer:

Since this is a proportional relationship,

We know that the number which are proportional are a multiple of each other

the number which we can multiply one of the numbers to get the other number is the constant of proportionality

we could check for proportionality by using the following formula:

p1 / s1 = p2/s2 = p3/s3 = p4/s4  if they were equal, we can say that the relation is proportional

The value of any of the above values, p1/s1 , p2/s2 , p3/s3 , p4/s4 is the constant of proportionality

Therefore, the constant of proportionality = 20 / 5 = 4

Valeria is training for a marathon. She jogs the same 15 mile route twice in one week. On Monday, she jogged the route in 1.75 hours. Thursday, she tried to improve her speed. She jogged the same route in 1.63 hours. Her smart watch said her rate on Monday was 8.57 miles per hour. She forgot to set the smart watch to calculate her rate on Thursday. Use the information you have to calculate how fast she was running on Thursday.

Answers

Answer:

9.20 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

distance of the route = 15miles

time taken on Monday= 1.75hours

speed= distance./time

speed= 15/1.75

speed= 8.57 miles per hour

her smart watch is correct

time taken on Thursday= 1.63hours

speed= distance./time

speed= 15/1.63

speed= 9.20 miles per hour

she was jogging at 9.20 miles per hour
