How does the mean of the data set below change if each value is increased by 8?

1 answer:

7 0

Suppose our data set is:
2,4,6,8
the mean of the above data is:
(2+4+6+8)/4=20/4=5

Increasing the above value by 8
10,12,14,16
the mean will be:
(10+12+14+16)/4
=52/4
=13
The difference in the two mean values i
13-5=8
Thus we conclude that if we increase our values by 8, the mean increases by 8

Rewriting the left-hand side as follows,

$(2\cos\theta-6\sin \theta)^2 +(6\cos \theta+2\sin \theta)^2\\\\=4\cos^2 \theta-24\cos \theta \sin \theta+36 \sin^2 \theta+36 \cos^2 \theta+24 \cos \theta \sin \theta+4 \sin^2 \theta\\\\=40\cos^2 \theta+40 \sin^2 \theta\\\\=40(\cos^2 \theta+\sin^2 \theta)\\\\=40$

Derrick's parents are finalizing a budget for his college expenses. His first year of college will cost $8,000, and his

pychu [463]

The first answer

Step by step

His first year costs $8,000
So our total amount to start with is $8,000

His second year will cost 12% more than his first so $8,000 • 1.12 = $8,960
Our total is now $16,960

His third year will again will be 12% more than his last year so $8,960 • 1.12 = 10,035.2
Our total is now $26,995.2

His last year will be 12% more than his previous year so $10,035.2 • 1.12 = $11,239.42
Our final total is $38,234.62
Which rounded equals $38,235

Select all of the following that are quadratic equations. 7x2 + 14x = 0 x3 - 3x2 + 1 = 0 5x - 7 = 0 x2 + 3x -5 = 0 x - 5 = 9x +

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

7x2 + 14x = 0

x2 + 3x -5 = 0

x2 - x = 3x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation has the highest power of x to the second power. It must have x to the second power

7x2 + 14x = 0 quadratic

x3 - 3x2 + 1 = 0 not quadratic but cubic

5x - 7 = 0 not quadratic but linear

x2 + 3x -5 = 0 quadratic

x - 5 = 9x + 7 not quadratic but linear

x2 - x = 3x + 7 quadratic
