<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: C is the correct answer.

    C     The mean will increase, and the median will stay the same.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We know that the mean of scores is the average value of the scores of  the score obtained by 4 friends.

i.e. it is the ratio of sum of scores of 4 friends to the total number of person i.e. 4.

Hence, if the score of any of the person will increase then the mean will also increase

( Since, the denominator remains the same and the numerator is increasing so , the resultant value will increase )

Also, we know that the median of the score lie between the data set, i.e. the change in the score of the last score won't affect the median :

Since, here we have  4 data points and the median lie between the 2nd and 3rd data point so change in the 4th data point won't affect the median.

Hence, increasing Adam's high score affect the mean and median as:

Mean will increase and Median remains the same.

What is the value of x in theequation 2.5 (6x - 4) = 10 + 4 (1.5 +0.5 x)?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2.5(6x−4)=10+4(1.5+0.5x)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2.5(6x−4)=10+4(1.5+0.5x)

(2.5)(6x)+(2.5)(−4)=10+(4)(1.5)+(4)(0.5x)(Distribute)

15x+−10=10+6+2x

15x−10=(2x)+(10+6)(Combine Like Terms)

15x−10=2x+16

15x−10=2x+16

Step 2: Subtract 2x from both sides.

15x−10−2x=2x+16−2x

13x−10=16

Step 3: Add 10 to both sides.

13x−10+10=16+10

13x=26

Step 4: Divide both sides by 13.  

x=2

Choose the table that represents g(x) = −2⋅f(x) when f(x) = x + 4
fomenos

Answer:

  x g(x)

  1 −10

  2 −12

  3 −14

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the values and do the arithmetic.

Table values for x are 1, 2, 3. We only need to find g(1) to determine which table is the correct choice.

  f(1) = 1 +4 = 5 . . . . . . . . . put 1 where x is and do the arithmetic

 g(1) = -2·f(1) = -2·5 = -10 . . . . . matches the 3rd choice
