Answer:
quantities or total number of observations
Step-by-step explanation:
Average also known as mean is a measure of central tendency. It is determined by adding the numbers together and dividing it by the total number
Average = sum of the numbers / total number
For example, there are 3 numbers 3 , 6, 9
Average = ( 3 + 6 + 9) / 3 = 18 / 3 = 6
Answer:
11) A
12) B
Step-by-step explanation:
11) 10x² + 1 = 0
Subtract 1 from both sides:
10x² = -1
Divide both sides by 10:
x² = -1/10
Take the square root of both sides:
x = ±√(-1) / √(10)
Remember that the square root of -1 is i:
x = ±i / √(10)
To rationalize the denominator, multiply top and bottom by √10.
x = ±i√(10) / 10
Answer is A.
12) 2v² + 8v + 6 = 0
Divide both sides by 2:
v² + 4v + 3 = 0
Use AC method or quadratic formula to factor:
(v + 1) (v + 3) = 0
Set each expression to 0:
v + 1 = 0 or v + 3 = 0
Solve:
v = -1 or v = -3
Answer is B.

Tom started with total 72 chocolate wafers.
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
The number of chocolate wafers taken by 8 members of the baseball team are in the sequence : 
The above sequence is <u>arithmetic sequence</u> with first term(a₁)= 1 and common difference (d) = 2
<u>Formula for Sum</u> of first
terms in arithmetic sequence is....
![S_{n}= \frac{n}{2}[2a_{1}+(n-1)d]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_%7Bn%7D%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bn%7D%7B2%7D%5B2a_%7B1%7D%2B%28n-1%29d%5D)
So, the Sum of 8 terms in that sequence....
![S_{8}= \frac{8}{2}[2(1)+(8-1)(2)]\\ \\ S_{8}= 4[2+7(2)]\\ \\ S_{8}=4(2+14)\\ \\ S_{8}=4(16)=64](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_%7B8%7D%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B8%7D%7B2%7D%5B2%281%29%2B%288-1%29%282%29%5D%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20S_%7B8%7D%3D%204%5B2%2B7%282%29%5D%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20S_%7B8%7D%3D4%282%2B14%29%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20S_%7B8%7D%3D4%2816%29%3D64)
That means, the total number of chocolate wafers taken by the baseball team members is 64. Tom ate 5 and then gave his brother 3 chocolate wafers at first.
So, the total number of chocolate wafers at starting 
Given that Megan's tax rates were as follows:
<span>No tax one the first £11000 of earnings
</span><span>Earnings in excess of £11000 and up to £43000 taxed at a rate of 20%
</span><span>Earning in excess of 43000 and up to £150000 taxed at a rate of 40%
</span>Earnings over £150000 taxed at a rate of 45%
If Megan earned £158900 before tax last year, the amount of tax she paid in total is given as follows:
First <span>£11000 = </span><span>£0 tax
</span>Balance after first <span>£11000 = </span><span>£158900 - </span><span>£11000 = </span><span>£147900
</span>
Next (<span>£43000 - </span><span>£11000 = </span><span>£32000) = 20% of </span><span>£32000 = 0.2 x </span><span>£32000 = </span>£6400 tax
Balance after next <span>£32000 = </span><span>£147900 - </span><span>£32000 = </span><span><span>£115000</span> </span>
Next (<span>£150000 - </span><span>£43000 = </span><span>£107000) = 40% of </span><span>£107000 = 0.4 x </span><span>£107000 = </span><span>£42800 tax</span>
Balance after next <span>£107000 = </span><span>£115000 - </span><span>£107000 = </span><span>£8000</span>
Remaiming <span>£8000 = 45% of </span><span>£8000 = 0.45 x </span><span>£8000 = </span><span>£3600 tax</span>
Total tax = <span>£6400 + </span><span>£42800 + </span><span>£3600 = </span><span>£52800
Therefore, she paid a total of </span><span>£52800 in tax last year.</span>
