The mean is the average of a set of numbers.

So if the remaining 40% of students score 100 points, and the 60% score like 50 points, then the mean would still be 70 points because of the 40% of students that scored super high.

So yes, it can be true.

Hey! Hope that I can help.

This can be true if the 60% of students scored really low and the 40% that didn't score below scored really high. Example: 20 kids in the class. 12 of the kids (60%) got 10% on their last test. 8 of the kids got 100%. The mean: ((10x12)+(100x8)) / 20 = 48. The mean is 48, but 60% of students got 10.

Answer: Yes

Stella [2.4K]

Answer: 300 ml

1000 milliliters = 1 liter

Therefore, 2.1 liters = 2.1 × 1000 = 2100 millimeters.

Therefore, since the liters of water is divided into 7 containers, the vlaue in each container will be:

Choose the equation of the line that contains the points (1,-1) and (2,2)
natka813 [3]
(1,-1)(2,2)
slope = (2 - (-1) / (2 - 1) = 3/1 = 3

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3
use either of ur points...(2,2)...x = 2 and y = 2
now we sub and find b, the y int
2 = 3(2) + b
2 = 6 + b
2 - 6 = b
-4 = b

so ur equation is : y = 3x - 4

a tennis player hits a serve that cannot be returned 45 percent of the time. Out of 300 serves, how many can yiu predict will no
lubasha [3.4K]

Remember that 45%=45/100=0.45

So if the tennis player serves the ball 300 times, and 45% cannot be returned, then we can use the following expression to solve for the answer:

300*0.45=135serves

Answer: 135 serves will not be returned
