He currently has 309 points in total. To have a mean of 80 after 5 tests, the total has to be 400, since 400 = 80*5.

400-309 = 91

So Skylar needs 91 points.

Answer:  The correct option is (c) 91.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Skylar's grades on four math tests are 85, 78, 77, and 69.

We are to find the grades that Skylar need to score on the next test in order to have a mean score of 80.

Let x denote the grades that Skylar need to score on the next test in order to have a mean score of 80.

Then, according to the given information, we have

\textup{Mean of 5 tests}=80\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{85+78+77+69+x}{5}=80\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{309+x}{5}=80\\\\\Rightarrow 309+x=400\\\\\Rightarrow x=400-309\\\\\Rightarrow x=91.

Thus, Skylar need to score 91 grades in the next test.

Option (c) is CORRECT.

eduard
Enrolement increased by 30% that means last year=100%
incease of 30%=30+100=130% now

now=182

percent means parts out of 100 so
130%=130/100=13/10


182=13/10 of x (x represents the number last year)
of means multipy so
182=13/10 times x
multiply both sides by 10/13 to clear fraction
182 times 10/13=x=140

Simora [160]

A sprint-distance triathlon is often the best way for a new triathlete to have positive experience in their first event. A typical sprint distance event consists of 400 to 500 yards (or meters) of swimming, 12 to 15 miles of cycling and typically a 3.1-mile run.  This distance makes completing the event quite manageable for fit and soon-to-be fit athletes.

HEY PLEASE I NEED HELP IM OFFERING 30 POINTS
Levart [38]

Answer:

the first option, (-4, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

for this question, we can use the substitution method. this is where we substitute the coordinates in the answer choices into the given system of inequalities or equations to determine which one is true.

1. (-4,6)

x + 4y > 12

-4 + 4(6) > 12

20 > 12 is true

now we can substitute the second inequality.

3(6) > -4 + 6

18 > 2 is true, therefore making this set of points true.

it may be helpful to substitute the rest of the values of x and y into the inequalities to verify your answers :

5 + 4(2) > 12

5 + 8 > 12

13> 12 is true

3(2) > 5 + 6

6 > 11 is not true

the rest of the answer choices are also not true.

I hope this helped you!
