To get the mean, you add all of the numbers, and then divide the answer by the number of numbers.
15+(-6)= 9
9+12= 21
(21+x= q )⬅️ignore this for now, that's where the unknown number would have been
The mean = 5, and the number of numbers is 4, so basically, you find 5•4=20
So take the 21 from before, and if you add -1, you get 20!
So, x= ➖1⃣!!!!!!! (That's a -1)
Option 2 would be biased. Asking people participating in a walkathon means you are asking people that are already volunteering. To get a non-biased sample, you have to be sure that you are including people that are not guaranteed to be volunteers; you don't have that in this situation.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
8x+9/x^2-13x+42
Write 8
x as a fraction with denominator 1
8x+9/x^2-13x+42
then we multipuly 8x/1 by x^2/x^2
Answer:
A and C
Step-by-step explanation:
Just plug in the point into the equations:
a) 14 = 2(4.5) + 5
14 = 9 + 5 14 = 14 A is correct
b) 14 = 3(4.5) + 1.5
14 = 13.5 + 1.5 14 ≠ 15 B is not correct
c) 14 = 4(4.5) - 4
14 = 18 - 4 14 = 14 C is correct
d) is not correct 12 is already to large and 10 is not a negative so it is far to large
