HELP; The life spans of 10 adult mayflies have a mean of 4 hours and a MAD of 2 hours. Fill in the table below with possible val

Step-by-step answer:

Assuming MAD stands for mean absolute deviation (2 hours), then the total absolute deviation from the mean (4 hours) is 10*2=20 hours.

If one of the flies live for 1 full day, the absolute deviation is 24-4=20 hours.  This automatically requires the other flies live exactly 4 hours to have the MAD equal to 20 hours.  

However, the above arrangement does not give a mean of 4 hours, but a mean of (24+9*4)/10=6 hours. This means that it is not possible to have a fly living for a full day.

Solve the system of equations by elimination.
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 2x - 9y = 23

2 x = 9 y + 23

y = (2 x)/9 - 23/9

2 x - 9 y - 23 = 0

2. 5x - 3y = -1

5 x + 1 = 3 y

y = (5 x)/3 + 1/3

5 x - 3 y + 1 = 0

I belive that should help you out a bit :D

Micheal has been awarded a pay rise of 4%.His salary is £ 24 492 <br> What was his apart before?
Nesterboy [21]
Because there was a pay rise, we can write the equation as x+0.04x = 24.492 and solve for x.

x+0.04x = 24.492
1.04x = 24.492
x=23.55

His original pay was £23.55

3,989.237
A thousandth = 1/1000 = 0.001
Round 4th decimal place = 5
5 and over is rounding up and under 5 rounds down so it would be 3,989.237
