Average=(total number)/(number of items)
given that the final exam counts as two test, let the final exam be x. The weight of the final exams on the average is 2, thus the final exam can be written as 2x because any score Shureka gets will be doubled before the averaging.
Hence our inequality will be as follows:
(67+68+76+63+2x)/6≥71
(274+2x)/6≥71
solving the above we get:
274+2x≥71×6
274+2x≥426
2x≥426-274
2x≥152
x≥76

b] The above answer is x≥76, the mean of this is that if Shureka is aiming at getting an average of 71 or above, then she should be able to get a minimum score of 76 or above. Anything less than 76 will drop her average lower than 71.

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-1,869.5x+27,995

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the time in years

y----> value of Zachary’s car in dollars

A(0,27,995), B(10,9,300)

step 1

Calculate the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

substitute

m=\frac{9,300-27,995}{10-0}=-1,869.50

step 2

Find the equation of the line

The equation of the line into slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

we have

m=-1,869.50

b=27,995  -----> the y-intercept is the point A

substitute

y=-1,869.5x+27,995

hope this helps have a good day

Levi's mom gave him $30 so he can go to the movies.He used 1/5 of the money to pay for his movie ticket.He spent 1/3 of what he
kolbaska11 [484]
If Levi has $30, and he spends 1/5 of it on his movie ticket, we can figure out how much 1/5 is by dividing 30 by 5.

30 divided by 5 = 6

Now Levi has $6. He than spends 1/3 of that on popcorn. We can divide 6 by 3.

6 divided by 3 = 2

Levi is left with $2.
