Five whole numbers are written in order
4 6 x y
10
The mean and median of the five numbers are the same.
Work out the values of x and y.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x = 7[/tex] and [tex]y = 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4 6 x y 10

Median = Mean

Required

Find x and y

The mean is calculated as:

[tex]Mean=\frac{4 + 6 + x + y + 10}{5}[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]Mean=\frac{4 + 6 + 10+ x + y }{5}[/tex]

[tex]Mean=\frac{20+ x + y }{5}[/tex]

The median which is the mid-data is x

i.e.

[tex]Median = x[/tex]

Median = Mean; so, we have:

[tex]x=\frac{20+ x + y }{5}[/tex]

Multiply through by 5

[tex]5 * x=\frac{20+ x + y }{5} * 5[/tex]

[tex]5 x=20+ x + y[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]5 x - x=20+ y[/tex]

[tex]4x=20+ y[/tex]

Since the numbers are in order, the values of x and y could be any of 7, 8 and 9

Such that:

[tex]x < y[/tex]

So, we need to test the equation with these values

Let x = 7

So, we have:

[tex]4x=20+ y[/tex]

[tex]4 * 7 = 20 + y[/tex]

[tex]28 = 20 + y[/tex]

[tex]28 - 20 = y[/tex]

[tex]8 = y[/tex]

[tex]y = 8[/tex]

This is true for the equation.

Hence:

[tex]x = 7[/tex] and [tex]y = 8[/tex]

Answer:

2 hour will male up for the intital fee

Step-by-step explanation:

It’ll take three hours.


Explanation
$70-$80-$90
$30-$60-$90

The first company only charges $10 an hour after a $60 dollar initial fee so it only goes up by ten each hour. the second company has no initial fee but it’s $30 each hour

Diagram NOT

2x
x + 5
All the measurements are in centimetres.
The area of the trapezium is 351 cm2.
(a) Show that 2x2 + x - 351 = 0

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezium is given as;

Area = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex](a + b)h

where: a is the length of the upper side, b is the length of its base and h is its height.

This implies that; a = x - 4, b = x + 5, h = 2x and area = 351

Thus,

351 =  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]((x - 4) + (x + 50)) 2x

      = (x - 4 + x + 5) x

531 = (2x + 1) x

      = 2[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + x

So that;

2[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + x - 531 = 0

This gives a quadratic equation.

Twelve is not equal to negative four

Answers

Ok?? thx for the points

Hi there!

Twelve is not equal to negative four.

So we know that all of the factors of twelve is 1,2,3,4,6, and 12 itself...

None of these are actually -4 since -4 doesn’t equal to 12.

Think about this... when your trying to multiply or add...

[tex]-4+-4=0[/tex]

[tex]0+-4=-4[/tex]

[tex]-4[/tex]·[tex]-4=16[/tex]

If you keep on multiplying or adding it, it’ll always stay the same...

So like always, twelve isn’t equailvalent to -4.

Answer:

3x + 2 4 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution of the equation formed 3x + 5x = 4 - 2 will be; x = 1/4.

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

We have given that sum of 3 times the value of x and 2 is equal to 4 less than 5 times the value of x then;

The sum of 3 times the value of x and 2 means (3x + 2)

4 less than 5 times the value of x means (4 - 5x)

Therefore, the equation would be;

3x + 2 = 4 - 5x

Now solving for x;

3x + 5x = 4 - 2

8x = 2

x = 1/4

Hence, the solution of the equation formed 3x + 5x = 4 - 2 will be; x = 1/4.

CALCULUS: For an object whose velocity in ft/sec is given by v(t) = sin(t), what is its distance, in feet, travelled on the interval t = 1 to t = 5?
A. 0.45
B. 2.82
C. 0.03

Answers

The linked answer is wrong because that integral gives you the net displacement of the object, not the total distance.

To get the distance, you have to integrate the speed (as opposed to velocity), which involves integrating the absolute value of the velocity function.

[tex]\mathrm{distance} = \displaystyle\int_1^5 |\sin(t)| \,\mathrm dt[/tex]

By definition of absolute value,

[tex]|\sin(t)|=\begin{cases}\sin(t)&\text{for }\sin(t)\ge0\\-\sin(t)&\text{for }\sin(t)<0\end{cases}[/tex]

Over this particular integration interval,

• sin(t ) ≥ 0 for 1 ≤ tπ, and

• sin(t ) < 0 for π < t ≤ 5

so you end up splitting the integral at t = π as

[tex]\mathrm{distance} = \displaystyle\int_1^\pi \sin(t)\,\mathrm dt + \int_\pi^5 (-\sin(t))\,\mathrm dt[/tex]

Now compute the distance:

[tex]\mathrm{distance} = -\cos(t)\bigg|_1^\pi + \cos(t)\bigg|_\pi^5[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{distance} = -(\cos(\pi) - \cos(1)) + (\cos(5) - \cos(\pi))[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{distance} = -2\cos(\pi) + \cos(1) + \cos(5) \approx 2.82[/tex]

t (23) ≤ 97 - 23

8kg ham costs $12/kg. find the cost per pound.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

8kg ham costs $12/kg

To determine

Find the cost per pound

As

1 kg = 2.2 pounds  

Weight of 8kg in ponds = 8 × 2.2 = 17.6 ponds

Cost of ham/pound = $12/2.2 pounds

                                 = $5.45 per pound

Given t4 = 187.5 and r = 2.5

a. Find the value of t1.

b. Write an explicit formula for this sequence.

c. Find the value of t18.

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex]t_{1} = 12[/tex]

b) The explicit formula

[tex]t_{n} = ar^{n-1} = 12(2.5)^{n-1}[/tex]

c) t₁₈  = 69,849,193.096

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that the geometric sequence

          r = 2.5

Given the fourth term of the  geometric sequence

      [tex]t_{4} = ar^{3} = 187.5[/tex]

⇒ ar³ = 187.5

⇒ a (2.5)³ = 187.5

    [tex]a = \frac{187.5}{(2.5)^{3} } = 12[/tex]

The explicit formula

[tex]t_{n} = ar^{n-1} = 12(2.5)^{n-1}[/tex]

Step(ii):-

put n=1

[tex]t_{1} = ar^{1-1} = 12(2.5)^{1-1} = 12 (2.5)^{0} = 12[/tex]

The [tex]18^{th}[/tex] of the geometric sequence

[tex]t_{18} = ar^{18-1} = a r^{17}[/tex]

[tex]t_{18} = 12( 2.5)^{17}[/tex]

t₁₈  = 69,849,193.096

Final answer:-

a) [tex]t_{1} = 12[/tex]

b) The explicit formula

[tex]t_{n} = ar^{n-1} = 12(2.5)^{n-1}[/tex]

c) t₁₈  = 69,849,193.096

3.3(x + 1.2) = 40.26​

Answers

Answer: x=11

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

3.3(x + 1.2) = 40.26

Distribute the 3.3 across the parentheses.

3.3x + 3.96 = 40.26

Combine the constants by subtracting 3.96 from both sides

3.3x = 36.3

Isolate the variable by dividing both sides by 3.3

x = 11

Check your work by plugging x = 11 into the original equation.

3.3(11 + 1.2) = 40.26

3.3(12.2) = 40.26

40.26 = 40.26

Your answer is correct.

2b = 32

Step 3: divide both sides by 2. Which should leave you with....

Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that is contains a slope of -0.32 and
a y intercept at (0, 4.75).

Answers

Answer:

y = -0.32x + 4.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. (For example: y = 2x + 1)

Since you have the slope, or m, is -0.32 and the y-intercept, or b, is 4.75, you can plug those into the equation to get y = -0.32x + 4.75
