If the average (arithmetic mean) of 2, 7, and x is 12, what is the value of x?

1 answer:

6 0

The three numbers are 2, 7 and x.

Ther sum is
2 + 7 + x = 9 + x

Because the arithmetic mean is 12, therefore
(9 + x)/3 = 12
9 + x = 12*3 = 36
x = 36 - 9 = 27

Answer: x = 27

What sets of ordered pairs represents a function ? A={(2,-2), (5,-5) (-2,2)(-5,5)} B={(4,2), (4,-2) , (9,3) (9,-3)}

Zina [86]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

In a function, one x value (the number in front) goes to one y value.

In {(4, 2), (4, -2)}, the x value 4 goes to two y values (2 and -2), which lets you know it’s not a function.
