16. would be C since they both consist of the same variable to the same power
17. x-2x+7-9+4x
c. 3x-2
18. -4(3a-5). You would multiply -4 by 3 a, and -4 by -5. It turns to
-4(3a)-4(-5)
a. -12a+20
Answer: r= 25/3
Step-by-step explanation:
r-4(r+6)=-49 distribute the 4
r-4r-24=-49 combine like terms
-3r-24=-49 add 24 to both sides
-3r=-25 divide by -3
r= 25/3 answer
The mean is not the same thing as median
mean=78+81+85+87=331
mean=331/4=82.75
median is the middle number, but you have a par set of numbers, so your median will be the middle numbers 78,81,85,87 , which are 81+85=166, 166/2=83
83 is your median
Start at 15 and move the same direction as the sign <
