The new mean is 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean = sum of the numbers ÷ numbers

  • The mean of a set of 5 numbers is 12
  • One of the number is 16
  • We need to find the new mean if 16 is removed from the set of numbers

∵ The set has 5 numbers

∵ The mean of the 5 numbers is 12

- Substitute these values in the rule of the mean above

∴ 12 = sum of the numbers ÷ 5

- Multiply both sides by 5

∴ 60 = sum of the numbers

∵ One of the number is 16

∵ 16 is removed from the set of the number

- Subtract 16 from the sum and the numbers will be four numbers

∵ The new sum = 60 - 16

∴ The new sum = 44

∵ The set has 4 numbers

∴ The new mean = 44 ÷ 4 = 11

The new mean is 11

Find the measure of the missing angles.<br> 62°<br> b\co
tiny-mole [99]

The measures of angles B and C are 118° and 62°, respectively.

<h3>What are the measures of two missing angles generated by the intersection of two lines?</h3>

A system of three angles is generated by two lines intersecting each other. In accordance with Euclidean geometry, angle C is opposite to the angle with measure 62° and angle B is supplementary to the same angle.

When two angles are opposite, then both have the same measure, and when two angles are supplementary, then the sum of their measures equals 180°. Therefore, the measures of angles B and C are 118° and 62°, respectively.
