Answer:

9 basket balls, 15 foot balls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of basket ball

y be the number of foot ball

1 basket ball = $22

so x basket ball = 22x

1 foot ball = $30

so y foot ball = 30y

Total cost = 648

The equation becomes 22x+ 30y = 648

Given : They bought 6 more footballs than basketballs.

foot  ball (y) = 6 more basket balls(x)

so y = x + 6

we solve for  x  and y

Now we plug in x+6 for y in the equation 22x+ 30y = 648

22x+ 30(x+6) = 648

22x + 30x + 180 = 648

Subtract 180 on both sides

52x = 468

Divide both sides by 52

so x= 9

Number of basket ball x= 9

Number of foot ball y=x+6= 9+ 6 = 15

Find the value of x. The answer is 53, but I need to show my work.<br><br> THANK YOU!!!
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

53

Step-by-step explanation:

so first sutract the large angle from 360:

360 - 213 = 147

then subtract the other large known angle:

147 - 107 = 40

now we know the x - 13 = 40 so to find x we just have to add 13:

40 + 13 = 53

How do you find the mean median mode and outlier
goblinko [34]

Answer:

The mean is the average of all numbers. To find the mean you add all numbers and divide by how many numbers you have (i.e. 1+2+3 =6. 6/3 =2. Mean is 2.) Median is the middle of the numbers. To find the median arrange the numbers from least to greatest, and the number in the middle is the median. For example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.  In this 3 is the median because it is in the middle.  The outlier is the number that is different from others. For example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 17.  In this case 17 is the outlier because it is different and farther than the other numbers.

Answer:

37.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

So the original fraction is 3/8 and we can’t simplify it so we gotta turn it into a percent, and we can do that by dividing 3 and 8nto get .375 so the percent is 37.5%.
