3(v + 2) + 4 = 13
Mutiply the bracket by 3
(3)(v)= 3v
(3)(2)= 6
3v+6+4= 13
3v+10=13
Move +10 to the other side
Sign changes from +10 to -10
3v+10-10= 13-10
3v= 13-10
3v= 3
divide both sides by 3
3v/3= 3/3
v= 1
Answer : v= 1
<span>The mean would typically be the best measure of determining the success of this business. Barring the presence of any outlier values, finding the average number of cameras sold per period (week, month, year, etc.) would give a better picture than the range or mode. The median could be used, but it is a bit less descriptive than the median in this instance.</span>
To compare these numbers, you must first put them into one format. Since you have mixed numbers, you may have to find and use the LCD.
-2.5, 1/5, 10, -12/4, 18/5, 10 could be simplified somewhat immediately:
-2.5, 1/5, 10, -3, (3 3/5) This set of numbers is simple enough so that you could rearrange them in ascending order mentally:
-3, -2.5, 1/5, (3 3/5), 10
In this case the number of elements in this set is odd, so all you have to do is to select the MIDDLE element: 1/5.
The median is 1/5.
You MUST learn this procedure (arranging the set elements in ascending order and selecting the middle element) so that you can apply it yourself.
49/9 because if you simplify it, it would be 7/3 which is equal to the original ratio.
You have to factor by grouping.
