Elanso [62]

Answer:

The median is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the median for the number of pencils

Firstly, we have to write out the numbers that form the box plot ; we have this as;

1,1,1,2,2,2,2,3,3,5

the median is sum of the 5th and 6th term divided by 2

The 5th term is 2

The 6th term is 2

So the median is;

(2 + 2)/2

= 4/2 = 2

Which equation can be used to solve the following word problem? Seth has 8 more nickels than dimes, and the total value of his c

9966 [12]

Answer:

Seth has 21 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number of nickels. Since Seth has 8 more nickels than dimes, then (n-8) is the number dimes.

Nickel is worth 5 cents and dime is worth 10 cents. Thus, n nickels are worth 5n cents and (n-8) dimes are worth 10(n-8) cents. The total value of Seth's coins is $2.35 that is 235 cents, then

$5n+10(n-8)=235.$

Solve this equation:

$5n+10n-80=235,\\ \\15n=235+80,\\ \\15n=315,\\ \\n=21.$

If you add 21 to my number and then multiply the result by 3, you will get 84 more than two-thirds of my number. Find my number.

Ksivusya [100]

Based on the calculations, the unknown number is equal to $\frac{-45}{7}$

Let the unknown number be x.

<h3>How to find an unknown number:</h3>

Translate the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

Adding 21 to the unknown number:

$21 +x$

Multiplying the result by 3:

$3\times (21+x)$

84 more than two-thirds of the unknown number:

$\frac{2x}{3} +84$

Equating the equations, we have:

$3\times (21+x) = \frac{2x}{3} +84\\\\43+3x=\frac{2x}{3} +84$

Cross-multiplying, we have:

$43+3x=\frac{2x}{3} +84\\\\129+9x=2x+84\\\\9x-2x=84-129\\\\7x=-45\\\\x=\frac{-45}{7}$
