So first convert 2 3/4 to improper fraction
2 3/4=8/4+3/4=11/4

11/4a=19 1/4
convert 19 1/4 to improper
19 1/4=76/4+1/4=77/4

11/4a=77/4
multiply both sdie sby 4
11a=77
divide by 11
a=7

There are 5 exams in a semester. You have scored 77, 90, 85, and 100 on the previous four exams. What must you make on the fifth
siniylev [52]

Answer:

<h2>The correct answer for this question is 78.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The average or mean of any variable or mathematical phenomenon is calculated as the division of the sum of all the numbers or items within the particular variable by the total number of items or numbers within the variable.
  • In this case, the marks of the 4 exams in the semester are 77,90,85 and 100 respectively.There are total 5 exams in the semester.
  • Let's suppose that the marks for the 5th exam is x.
  • Therefore, based on the mathematical formula to compute average or mean,to get an overall average of 86 including all the 5 exams, one has to get:-

   \frac{77+90+85+100+x}{5}=86

  77+90+85+100+x=430

  x=430-77-90-85-100

  x=78

  • Hence, based on the above calculations,one has has to get 78 on the 5th exam to obtain an overall average of exactly 86.

Solve the system of equations x+y=-8 and -9x-6y=60 by combining the equations
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

x = - 4    y = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y= - 8

-9x-6y=60

First, solve for x in the first equation:

x+y = - 8       Subtract y from both sides

x + y - y = -8 - y    y cancels on the left

x = - 8 - y

Now plug in what you found for x into the 2nd equation and solve for y.

- 9x - 6y = 60

-9(- 8 - y) - 6y = 60   Multiply out

72 + 9y - 6y = 60

72 + 3y = 60  Subtract 72 from both sides

72 - 72 + 3y = 60 - 72    72 cancels on the left

3y = - 12     Divie both sides by 3

3y/3 = -12/3     3 cancels on the left because 3/3 = 1

y = -4

Now plug your answer for y back into the first equation to get x.

x + y = -8

x + (-4) = - 8  Add 4 to each side

x - 4 + 4 = - 8 + 4   4 cancels on the left

x = -4

x = - 4 and y = - 4

If sec theta = - √30 / 3, find cos theta.<br> if sin(-theta) = -0.97, find cos (π/2 - theta).
Cloud [144]

Step-by-step explanation:

\cos \theta  =  \frac{1}{ \sec\theta }  =  -  \frac{3}{ \sqrt{30} }  =  -  \frac{3 \sqrt{30} }{30}   =  -  \frac{ \sqrt{30} }{10}

\cos( \frac{\pi}{2} -  \theta )=  \cos \frac{\pi}{2}  \cos \theta  +   \sin \frac{\pi}{2}  \sin \theta

Note that

\sin( - \theta) =  -  \sin \theta

\cos \frac{\pi}{2}  = 0 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \sin \frac{\pi}{2}  = 1

Therefore,

\cos( \frac{\pi}{2} -  \theta )  = 0.97
