The given percentage scores are:

80 , 92 , 91 , 75 , 89 , 84 , 0 , 85

A. Calculate the average

So, the average = (sum of the scores)/(number of the scores)

Sum of the scores = 80 + 92 + 91 + 75 + 89 + 84 + 0 + 85 = 596

The number of the scores = 8

So,

The average = 596/8 = 74.5%

Does the average score really represent her abilities ?

No, because there is outlier which is ( 0 ) which mean it may be absent this test

the other scores are within 75 and 92

Which mean the average is less than the reasonable minimum score

====================================================================

B. Brandee received 78% at the missed test

so, we will find the new mean:

The new sum of the scores = 80 + 92 + 91 + 75 + 89 + 84 + 78 + 85 = 674

The new mean = 674/8 = 84.25%

====================================================================

C. What different did 0% score make ?

So, 0% give us not accurate representation of the student abilities

Does this new mean represent her abilities accurately ?

Yes

Answer: The probability of pulling a red marble is 48%, probability of pulling a blue marble is 32%, probability of pulling a green marble is 20%

and

the probability of pulling three green marbles out with replacement is 0.8%.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a bag of marbles contains 12 red marbles 8 blue marbles and 5 green marbles.

Let S be the sample space for the experiment of pulling a marble.

Then, n(S) = 12 + 8 + 5 = 25.

Let, E, F and G represents the events of pulling a red marble, a blue marble and a green marble respectively.

The, n(E) = 12, n(F) = 8 and n(G) = 5.

Therefore, the probabilities of each of these three events E, F and G will be

$P(E)=\dfrac{n(E)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{12}{25}=\dfrac{12}{25}\times100\%=48\%,\\\\\\P(F)=\dfrac{n(F)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{8}{25}=\dfrac{8}{25}\times100\%=32\%,\\\\\\P(G)=\dfrac{n(G)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{5}{25}=\dfrac{5}{25}\times100\%=20\%.$

Now, the probability of pulling three green marbles out with replacement is given by

$P(G)\times P(G)\times P(G)=\dfrac{5}{25}\times\dfrac{5}{25}\times \dfrac{5}{25}=\dfrac{1}{125}=\dfrac{1}{125}\times100\%=0.8\%.$

Thus, the probability of pulling a red marble is 48%, probability of pulling a blue marble is 32%, probability of pulling a green marble is 20%

and

the probability of pulling three green marbles out with replacement is 0.8%.

How do you solve this equation<br> 5(8x-2)=270

raketka [301]

5(8x-2)=270
distribute the 5 into 8x-2
5*8x-5*2=270
you get
40x-10=270
combine like terms
40x=280
divide both sides by 40 to find x
x=7
