Answer:

See Below:

Step-by-step explanation:

Average is take by adding all the terms together and dividing by the number of terms. In this case it terms is people in the room.

22= (25+18+17+13+24+x)/6

Where 22 is the average age. The numerator is all the known ages added together, plus x which is the age of the person who just entered. Divided by 6 because you are finding the average age of 6 people.

22 = (25+18+17+13+24+x)/6     Multiply both sides by 6

132= 97+ x  Subtract 97 from both sides.

35 = x

The person who just entered the room is 35 years old.

Last week, it rained g inches. This week, the amount of rain decreased by 5%. Which expressions represent the amount of rain tha
dybincka [34]

Answer:

The correct answers are:

0.95g

g - 0.05g

(1 - 0.05)g

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of last week's rain = g inches

this week = 5% decrease on last week's amount

5% of last week's amount = 5/100 × g = 0.05g

∴ This week's amount of rain = 0.05g decrease

∴ Amount of rain this week = (Amount of rain last week) - 0.05g

∴ Amount of rain this week = g - 0.05g

This can be simplified by factorizing the common term "g"

g - 0.05g = g(1 - 0.05) = 0.95g
