subtract(16.2, multiply(2, 2.3))
the arithmetic mean and standard deviation of a certain normal distribution are 16.2 and 2.3 , respectively . what value is exactly 2 standard deviations less than the mean ?
"mean = 16.2 two standard deviations is 2.3 + 2.3 = 4.6 there could be two calues for this . mean + two standard deviations = 20.8 mean - two standard deviations = 11.6 answer choice has 11.6 and so c is the answer ."

a room is 6 meters 72 centimeters in length and 4 meters 32 centimeters in width . find the least number of square tiles of equal size required to cover the entire floor of the room .
let us calculate both the length and width of the room in centimeters . length = 6 meters and 72 centimeters = 672 cm width = 4 meters and 32 centimeters = 432 cm as we want the least number of square tiles required , it means the length of each square tile should be as large as possible . further , the length of each square tile should be a factor of both the length and width of the room . hence , the length of each square tile will be equal to the hcf of the length and width of the room = hcf of 672 and 432 = 48 thus , the number of square tiles required = ( 672 x 432 ) / ( 48 x 48 ) = 14 x 9 = 126 answer : b

a can complete a project in 10 days and b can complete the same project in 30 days . if a and b start working on the project together and a quits 10 days before the project is completed , in how many days will the project be completed ?
"let x = the number of days taken to complete the project . the amount of work done by a is ( x - 10 ) * ( 1 / 20 ) . the amount of work done by b is ( x ) * ( 1 / 30 ) . ( 1 / 10 ) * ( x - 10 ) + ( 1 / 30 ) * ( x ) = 1 ( x / 10 ) + ( x / 30 ) - 1 ) = 1 4 x / 30 = 2 x = 15 therefore , the answer is b : 15 ."

a , b , and c are integers and a < b < c . s is the set of all integers from a to b , inclusive . q is the set of all integers from b to c , inclusive . the median of set s is ( 3 / 4 ) * b . the median of set q is ( 8 / 8 ) * c . if r is the set of all integers from a to c , inclusive , what fraction of c is the median of set r ?
"the answer isc : 11 / 16 . the key to this problem is remembering that the median for a consecutive set of numbers is equivalent to its mean . for example , the mean and median of a set consisting of x , x + 1 , x + 2 , . . . , y will always be ( x + y ) / 2 . for set s , consisting of numbers ( a , a + 1 , . . . , b ) , the median is given to be 3 / 4 * b : ( a + b ) / 2 = ( 3 / 4 ) * b a = b / 2 for set q , consisting of numbers ( b , b + 1 , . . . , c ) , the median is given to be 8 / 8 * c : ( b + c ) / 2 = ( 8 / 8 ) * c b = ( 1 ) * c for set r , consisting of numbers ( a , a + 1 , . . . c ) , the median needs to be found : a = b / 2 = ( 1 * c ) / 2 = ( 1 / 2 ) * c median = ( a + c ) / 2 = ( 1 / 2 * c + c ) / 2 = ( 3 / 2 ) * c / 2 = ( 3 / 4 ) * c ( answer e )"

a car traveling at a certain constant speed takes 10 seconds longer to travel 1 km than it would take to travel 1 km at 80 km / hour . at what speed , in km / hr , is the car traveling ?
time to cover 1 kilometer at 80 kilometers per hour is 1 / 80 hours = 3,600 / 80 seconds = 45 seconds ; time to cover 1 kilometer at regular speed is 45 + 10 = 55 seconds = 55 / 3,600 hours = 1 / 65 hours ; so , we get that to cover 1 kilometer 1 / 65 hours is needed - - > regular speed 65 kilometers per hour ( rate is a reciprocal of time or rate = distance / time ) . answer : d
