To gain a pass a student needs to achieve a mean of at least 60% in eight tests. In the first seven

Tanzania [10]1 year ago

Step-by-step explanation:

the mean value is the sum of all data points divided by the number of data points.

first we have 7 tests and their mean value :

(t1 + t2 + t3 + t4 + t5 + t6 + t7) / 7 = 54

that means

(t1 + t2 + t3 + t4 + t5 + t6 + t7) = 54 × 7 = 378

in order for the mean value to be at least 60% after 8 tests, we need to add a t8, so that

(t1 + t2 + t3 + t4 + t5 + t6 + t7 + t8) = 60 × 8 = 480

because only then we have

(t1 + t2 + t3 + t4 + t5 + t6 + t7 + t8) / 8 = 60

and the student passes.

so,

(t1 + t2 + t3 + t4 + t5 + t6 + t7) + t8 = 480

378 + t8 = 480

t8 = 480 - 378 = 102%

the student would have to achieve 102% on the 8th test.

which would be normally impossible, but maybe the tests involve some bonus points.

5y+30 5 complete the factoring ...?
krek1111 [17]
Well, I don't really understand if it is 30 or 305 because of the spacing but I'll answer both. If it is 5y+305, just divide the whole equation by 5 and it will look like this (<u>5y+305)</u>  then the factor would be 5(y+61)<u>
</u>                   5 
If it is 5y+30 it would be just in the same process, Divide the equation by 5 and the result will be 5(y+6).

Two boys and three girls are auditioning to play the piano for a school production. Two students will be chosen, one as the pian
Sergio039 [100]
The answer is 0.24

To calculate this, a multiplication rule is used. The multiplication rule calculates the probability that both of two events will occur. In this method, the probabilities of each event are multiplied. Here we have two events:

1. The probability that the pianist will be a boy,

2. The probability that the alternate will be a girl.


So, let's calculate these probabilities:

There are in total 5 children:

2 boys + 3 girls = 5 children.

1. The probability that the pianist will be a boy is 2 boys out of 5 children, which is 2/5.

2. The probability that the alternate will be a girl is 3 girls out of 5 children, which is 3/5.


<span>The probability that the pianist will be a boy and the alternate will be a girl is:</span>

<span>2/5 </span><span>× 3/5 = 6/25</span>

<span>6/25 </span><span>× 4/4 = 24/100 = 0.24</span>
