Answer:

$0.34 per ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

A 5 pound box can be changed to ounces. There are 16 ounces in a pound. So we have 5 groups of 16.

5 × 16 is 80 ounces.

There are 80 ounces in 5lbs.

To get a price per ounces, divide.

dollars/ounces

= 27.20/80

= 0.34 dollars/oz.

This is 34cents per ounce.

Find the geometric mean of 2 and 3

Sav [38]

The first step in solving this problem is taking 2 and 3 and multiplying them (2 * 3 = 6) .
Now, for the second step, we will cube it. Since there are 2 numbers, we are going to use the 2nd root (2sqrt(6)) This will give us: 4.89897948557 or 5 if you would round it. This would be the Geometric Mean.

A professor has recorded exam grades for 10 students in his class, but one of the grades is no longer readable. If the mean sco

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

unreadable score = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

We are trying to find the score of one exam that is no longer readable, let's give that score the name "x". we can also give the addition of the rest of 9 readable s scores the letter "R".

There are two things we know, and for which we are going to create equations containing the unknowns "x", and "R":

1) The mean score of ALL exams (including the unreadable one) is 80

so the equation to represent this statement is:

mean of ALL exams = 80

By writing the mean of ALL scores (as the total of all scores added including "x") we can re-write the equation as:

$\frac{R+x}{10} =80$

since the mean is the addition of all values divided the total number of exams.

in a similar way we can write what the mean of just the readable exams is:

$\frac{R}{9} = 85\\$ (notice that this time we don't include the grade x in the addition, and we divide by 9 instead of 10 because only 9 exams are being considered for this mean.
