The answer could be negative or positive. We are not given specific as to whether or not the starting number is positive or negative so therefore it could be either.
Hope this is helpful :)

\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{A. What is Asked}}

Billy thinks of a nonzero number. He multiplies it by 3. He gets...? 3 options given

\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{This problem has been solved!}}

This problem does not give us the information about the starting number (we can't read Billy's mind).

First, I'm going to assume that the number is positive

\bf{A\;positive\;number\;multiplied\;by\;-3;\;yields\;a\;negative}

Next, I'll assume that Billy's number is a negative one.

\bf{The\;number\;is\;a\;positive\;one}.

\rule{300}{1.7}

\bf{Result:}

              \bf{=The\;answer\;could\;be\;either\;positive\;or\;negative.\;It\;depends\;on\;the\;sign}\\of\:the\:starting\:number.

Kenji earned the test scores below in English class.
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

mean=87

median=87

Step-by-step explanation:

mean=sum of test score/number of subject

mean=79+91+93+85+86+88/6

mean=522/6

mean=87

Literal meaning of median is medium.

To find the number which lies in the medium, we must rearrange the number in ascending.

79, 91, 93, 85, 86, 88

79, 85, 86, 88, 91, 93

86+88/2=87

Hope this helps ;) ❤❤❤

Aleks [24]

Answer:

8 flowers in each bunch

Step-by-step explanation:

From this information, we can make the equation:

23b-46=138

Where b is the number of flower in each bunch.

23b-46=138

<em>Add 46 to both sides</em>

23b=184

<em>Divide both sides by 23</em>

b=8

There are 8 flowers in each bunch.
