A collection of 5 positive integers has mean 4.4, unique mode 3 and median 4. If an 8 is added to the collection, what is the new median. Express your answer as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It appears the 5 integers must be {3, 3, 4, 5, 7}.

For the mode to be unique, there must be more than one '3', and there cannot be any other repeated numbers. For 4 to be the median, it must be the 3rd-highest number. Then the remaining numbers must be integers greater than 4 with a sum of 12 for the mean to be 4.4.

When 8 is added to the collection, the median is now the average of 4 and 5, so is 4.5.

The new median is 4.5.

_____

Comment on vocabulary

mean: the sum of numbers divided by the number of numbers. 5 numbers with a mean of 4.4 will have a sum of 5×4.4 = 22.

median: the middle number of a collection of an odd number of numbers, when sorted from lowest to highest. It is the 3rd number of a group of 5 numbers. When there are an even number of numbers in the group, the median is the average of the middle two in the sorted list. Here, that means the 3rd number in the list of 5 is '4'. When 8 is added, 4 becomes one of the numbers contributing to the average that will be the new median.

mode: the member of the group that appears the most times. When the mode is unique, it means there are no other numbers repeated as often. Here, we know the 3rd number (of 5) is 4, so there can only be two numbers '3' in the collection. That 3 is the unique mode means no other numbers are repeated at all.

a forth of all students im Mr.Flitch class of 24 got A on the last math test.How many kids scored below A on the test?

Answers

3/4 because the question says 1/4

A forth can be represented as 25% or 0.25 as a decimal. (100/4 = 25)

To determine how many kids got an A, we figure out was 25% of 24 is.

0.25 x 24 = 6

Therefore, 6 kids in the class got an A.

Solve the system of equations.
y = 6x + 13
y = 2x + 1

Answers

Answer:

x=-3. y=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Equating both equations,

6x + 13 = 2x + 1

6x - 2x = 1 - 13

4x = -12

x = -3

Plug in the value of x in the given first equation,

y = 6* (-3) + 13 = -18 + 13 = -5

Answer:

{y,x} = {-5,-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Linear Equations entered

y - 6x = 13

 y - 2x = 1

Graphic Representation of the Equations

-6x + y = 13        -2x + y = 1  (attached)

Solve by Substitution

y = 2x + 1

(2x+1) - 6x = 13

   - 4x = 12

4x = - 12

    x = - 3

  y = 2x+1

   x = -3

 y = 2(-3)+1 = -5 (final answer)

Consider the product P(x) = (3x2 - 6x + 2)(7x + 3).
What is the numerical coefficient of the x term in P(x)?
Enter only a number for your answer.

Answers

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the only way to multiply 2 numbers from each of the polynomials and get an x term is to multiply a constant and an x term.

The only ways to do that is to multiply -6x by 3 and 7x by 2.

After you're done multiplying, just combine the 2 like terms:

-18x+14x

=-4x

Therefore, the coefficient of the x term is -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of the fraction is given by the equation A = 7 / 55

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Let the first fraction be represented as p = 14/75

Let the second fraction be represented as q = 15/22

Now , A = p x q

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

A = ( 14/75 ) x ( 15/22 )

A = 210 / 1650

A = 42 / 330

A = 14 / 110

A = 7/55

Therefore , the value of A is 7/55

Hence , the fraction is A = 7/55

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula y=mx+b. m=slope so y=7/4x+b. We know that the line intersects the point (0,-3) so we plug it in, x=0 and y=-3. -3=(7/4)*0+b. b=-3. Therefore, the equation is y=7x/4-3.

Part A: Create an equation that shows the amount of money earned, E, for working x hours in a week when there is no overtime. (3 points)

x hours in a week and there is no overtime and x <= 35 so equation:

E(x) = 16x

Part B: Create an equation that shows the amount of wages earned, T, for working y hours of overtime. Hint: Remember to include in the equation the amount earned from working 35 hours. (3 points)

Regular hours = E(x) = $16 x 35 = $560

T(y) = 21y + 560

Part C: Marco earned $602 in 1 week. How many hours (regular plus overtime) did he work? Show your work. (4 points)

21y + 560 = 602

e. m25 =
f. m26 =
g. m27 =

Answers

Answer/explanation:

Given:

m<8 = 23°

a. m<1 = 180° - m<8 (corresponding angles theorem and supplementary angles theorem)

m<1 = 180 - 23 = 157°

b. m<2 + m<1 = 180° (linear pair)

m<2 + 157° = 180°

m<2 = 180° - 153° = 23°

c. m<3 = m<1 (vertical angles are congruent)

m<3 = 157°

d. m<4 = m<2 (vertical angles are congruent)

m<4 = 23°

e. m<5 = m<1 (corresponding angles)

m<5 = 157°

f. m<6 = m<8 (vertical angles are congruent)

m<6 = 23°

g. m<7 = m<5 (vertical angles are congruent)

m<7 = 157°
