The value of two plums and a peanut, divided by a grape and a peanut is 11

<h3>How to solve the expression?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Peanut = 1
  • Grape = 2
  • Acorn + 3 grapes = 14
  • Acorn = 1/2 Plum

Substitute Grape = 2  in Acorn + 3 grapes = 14

Acorn + 3 *2  = 14

Acorn + 6  = 14

Subtract 6 from both sides

Acorn  = 8

Substitute Acorn  = 8 in Acorn = 1/2 Plum

8 = 1/2 Plum

Multiply both sides by 2

Plum = 16

So, we have:

Peanut = 1

Grape = 2

Acorn  = 8

Plum = 16

The value of two plums and a peanut, divided by a grape and a peanut is:

(2 plums + peanut)/(grape + peanut)

This gives

(2 * 16 + 1)/(2+ 1)

Evaluate

11

Hence, the value of two plums and a peanut, divided by a grape and a peanut is 11

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

<em>Bethany did not do better than Richie because her average score was less than his.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Average Value</u>

The average or mean value of m successes out of n tries is given by:

\displaystyle \bar x=\frac{m}{n}

During a practice session playing basketball, Richie made m=12 free throws from n=15 attempts. His average score was:

\displaystyle \bar x=\frac{12}{15}=0.8

Bethany made 8 free throws for every 3 that she missed, this means she made 8 out of 11 attempts. Her average score was:

\displaystyle \bar x=\frac{8}{11}=0.72

Bethany did not do better than Richie because her average score was less than his.
