Let the weight of triangle be x units. You are given that the weight of square is 1 unit.

1) On the left side of the balanced beam you can see 3 triangles and 5 squares. The weight on left side is 3·x+5·1=3x+5 units.

2) On the right side of the balanced beam you can see 2 triangles and 7 squares. The weight on right side is 2·x+7·1=2x+7 units.

3) If the whole system is balanced, then the weights on left and right sides are equal:

3x+5=2x+7.

Solve this equation:

3x-2x=7-5,

x=2 units.

Answer: option A

an old book listed that $72$ turkeys were bought for $\$\square.\square\square$ each, at a total cost of $\$\square 67.9\square.
Westkost [7]

The cost of each turkey, if each is a smudge that represents some unreadable digit is $0.94

<h3>Cost of each turkey</h3><h3 />
  • Total number of turkey bought = 72
  • Total cost = $67.9

Cost of each turkey = Total cost / Total number of turkey bought

= 67.9 / 72

= 0.943055555555555

Approximately,

Cost of each turkey = $0.94

Therefore, the cost of each turkey, if each is a smudge that represents some unreadable digit is $0.94

In a shipment of airplane parts, 5% are known to be defective. If 21 parts are found to be defective, how many parts are in the
horrorfan [7]

We can use ratios and the cross-multiply-divide to find this.



The ratio 21:5 is avaliable via the question. We then need to compare that to the ratio x:100, the 100 being the percent and the x being the number of airplane parts.



21/5 = x/100



We can then solve for x to find the number of airplane parts. First we multiply by 100 on both sides to get 2100/5 = x. Therefore x = 420 and there are 420 airplane parts.

\dashrightarrow{ \tt{mean =  \frac{ \sum f(n)}{n} }} \\

• f(n) are the values of the set

• n is the number of items

\dashrightarrow \: { \tt{mean =  \frac{ - 78 + ( - 12) + 3 + ( - 44)}{4} }} \\  \\  \dashrightarrow \: { \tt{ \frac{ - 131}{4} }} \\  \\  \dashrightarrow \: { \boxed{ \tt{mean =  - 32.75}}}
