Answer:

$28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

data = [22,30,35,25,25,20,27]

For eight night, the new list is:

new_data = [22,30,35,25,25,20,27,x]

Mean = 26.50

Mean Formula:

\displaystyle \large{m=\dfrac{x_1+x_2+x_3+...+x_n}{n} }

Therefore:

\displaystyle \large{26.50=\dfrac{22+30+35+25+25+20+27+x}{8}}

Multiply both sides by 8:

\displaystyle \large{26.50\cdot 8=\dfrac{22+30+35+25+25+20+27+x}{8} \cdot 8}\\\displaystyle \large{212=22+30+35+25+25+20+27+x}

Solve for x:

\displaystyle \large{212=22+30+35+25+25+20+27+x}\\\displaystyle \large{212=184+x}

Subtract 184 both sides:

\displaystyle \large{212-184=184+x-184}\\\displaystyle \large{28=x}

Therefore, she will earn $28 in eighth night

The attachment below is the result of combining all eighth data as we get 26.5 through python language with numpy package.

Answer: $28.

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, we should first find the mean of the data with the seven payments that are given already:

22 + 30 + 35 + 25 + 25 + 20 + 27 = 184.

184 / 7 = 26.2857142857.

In order to figure out how much she made the eighth night with the mean of the data being $26.50, we can pick a number and add it to 184 (the total of the seven payments), and divide the total by 8.  The number we can try is 28. The work is done below:

184 + 28 = 212.

212 / 8 = $26.50.

Therefore, Laura's payment on the eighth night was $28.

Hope this helps! :)

Martina is 3 inches less than twice as tall as her little brother. Write an expression for Martina's height. How tall is Martian
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Martina is 53 inches tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write an expression that relates the siblings heights we need to attribute variables to each brother. First we will call Martina's height as "m", then we can call her little brother's height as "b". The problem states that Martina's height is 3 inches less than twice the height of her brother so we have:

m = 2*b - 3

Then the problem gives us the height of her brother that is 28 inches tall, so b = 28. We can now compute Martina's height:

m = 2*28 - 3 = 56 - 3 = 53 inches.

How to solve y in -(y+9)=10
Allisa [31]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

- (y+9) = 10


Multiply through by -1 gives us


y+9 = -10


Subtract 9 from both sides


y = -19


That's your answer.


If you work it through it satisfies the equation.


That is:


- (-19 +9) = 10


-(-10) = 10


10 = 10


Boo ya!
