To obtain an average (arithmetic mean) of exactly 2/3, what fraction must be added to 1/6, 1/2, and 1/3?

ollegr [7]

Answer:

D. 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1/6+1/2+1/3+x}{4} =2/3$

$1/6+1/2+1/3+x=8/3$

$x=8/3-1/6-1/2-1/3$

$x=8/3-1/6-3/6-2/6$

$x=8/3-6/6$

$x=16/6-6/6=10/6$

simplified

$x=5/3$

Hope this helps

Determine whether y varies directly with x. If so, find the constant of variation k.

kumpel [21]

Direct variation is y=kx, inverse variation is y=k/x....

-5y=-2x divide both sides by -5

y=2.5x

So this is a direct variation with a constant of 2.5
