Assume the following:
Brad has been in the soccer team for b years.
Scot has been in the soccer team for s years.
"The number of years that brad has been on the soccer team is 2 less than 5 times the number of years that Scott has"
means: b=5s-2
"in total,the boys have been on the soccer team for 10 years."
means: b+s=10
so we have the equations:
i) b=5s-2
ii) b+s=10
substitute b in ii) with 5s-2, as they are equal, from i
(5s-2)+s=10
5s-2+s=10
6s=12
s=2,
then , from b+s=10, b=8
Answer: Brad has been in the team for 8 years.

Your answer is 0.0909090909 if I'm not mistaken.
Answer: 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can ensure that 12 is the median by putting it in the middle and putting the same amount of numbers to its left and right side. To make the values have a mean of 12, the easy why to do it is to subtrate one as you move to the left and add one as you move to the right, that way they will cancel each other out and keep the mean at 12. The answer has a total of 11 values, has more than 3 values that are different, and has a mean and median of 12.
7+8+9+10+11+12+13+14+15+16+17=132
132/11=12
There are 5 values to each side of 12, making 12 the median.
I think it’s either 2 or 3
