Answer:
58330.5 bones
Step-by-step explanation:
Essentially mean is taking the total and dividing that by the number of items.
Here, we need to add up all the bones and divide it by the number of dogs there are:
444 + 555 + 101010 + 131313 = 233322 bones
There are 4 dogs:
233322 / 4 = 58330.5 bones
With this problem, it's essentially asking how many groups of 6 can fit into 324. We can do that simply by dividing 324 by 6 to get 54.
the second one? Step-by-step explanation:
I believe the answer is 8
The generic equation for a linear function can be expressed in the slope intercept form f(x) = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. For this problem we can first find the equation of the line. Then we substitute x = 7 to get the f(x) value, which is n at the point x = 7.
To find the equation of the linear function we first find the slope. Slope is defined as the change in f(x) divided by the change in x. As we are given a linear function, the slope at every point is the same. We can pick any two points known to find the slope.
Let's pick (3, 7) and (9, 16). The slope m is m = (16-7)/(9-3) = 9/6 = 3/2.
Now that we have the slope, we can plug in the slope and one of the points to find b. Let's use the point (3, 7).
f(x) = mx + b
7 = (1/2)(3) + b
b = 11/2
Now we can write the equation
f(x) = (1/2)x + 11/2
Plugging in x = 7 we find that f(7) = 9. n = 9
