Answer: 3,19 which is larger than the original
Step-by-step explanation: if you consider that the original average is 3 you can say that all 25 students have 3 siblings so the average is 3, if you add another students with 8 siblings and do some math (25*3+8)/26 its 3,19
Subtract 5 from both sides
a/-8 = 4/7 - 5
simplify 4/7 - 5 to 31/-7
a/-8 = 31/-7
multiply both sides by 8
-a = 31/-7 x 8
simplify 31/7 x 8 to 248/7
-a = 248/7
multiply both sides by -1.
The answer is a = 248/7
