Mean is average
so we have 4 numbers
sum them then divide by 4
(32+31+37+44)=144
divide by 4
144/4=36
answer is C
37.88888888 and it just keep repearing so there is no right answer dont foeget to mark me as the best answer
Answer:
Use the Pythagorean theorem for right triangles to solve this
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where 'a' and 'b' are the legs of the triangle and 'c' is the hypotenuse
so:
8^2 + b^2 = 17^2 solve for the second leg, b
64 + b^2 = 289
b^2 = 289 - 64= 225
b = 15
It's a binomial times a binomial, so you FOIL
First multiply the First numbers
3z*z = 3z(^2)
Then multiply Outers:
3z* -4 = -12z
Nest, Inners:
9*z = 9z
Finally, the Lasts:
-4*9 = -36
Then, throw it all together in descending order, starting with the variable of highest degree to lowest:
3z^2 - 12z + 9z - 36
Last of all, simplify coefficients with like terms and you're good to go:
3z^2 - 3z - 36
Hope this helps!
The easiest way to think about this is to give all of the numbers common denominators:
1 can be written as 6/6
0 can be written as 0/6
Now we can see that 5/6 is only 1/6 away from 1, while it is 5/6 away from 0.
So, 5/6 is closer to 1!
