This question is easier than it seems. If there are 9 consecutive integers with the mean being 16, then 16 must be the median. So just add four on top and four below 16 to give you your range of 9 values, 12-20. 12+13+14+15+16+17+18+19+20=144, 144/9=16. So the mean of the first four numbers is (12+13+14+15)/4= 13.5. If you check, 13.5 is also the median of these four numbers.
Harry can rake the leaves in the yard 8 hours faster than his little brother Jimmy can.
<span>If they join to work together they can complete the job in 3 hours. </span>
<span>1/x + 1/(x - 8) = 1/3 </span>
<span>3(x - 8) + 3x = x(x - 8) </span>
<span>x^2 - 14x + 24 = 0 </span>
<span>(x - 12)(x - 2) = 0 </span>
<span>Solutions: </span>
<span>x = 2 </span>
<span>x = 12 </span>

Answer:
Compound Interest= $3440
Final Amount= $5440
Step-by-step explanation:
Compound Interest's formula= P(1+r/100)^n
where P is Principal, r is Rate then n is Years
So in this case,,2000(1+.72)^1 = $3440
Hence, Total Amount = Principal+Interest
therefore T.A= $2000+$3440
T.A=$5440

Five times the difference of a number n and forty two is ten more than twice the product of a number x and number y
- Five times: 5 ×
- difference of a number n and forty two: (n - 42)
- is: =
- twice the product of a number x and a number y: 2(xy)
- ten more than: + 10
Rewrite the expression into an equation.
<h3>5(n - 42) = 2(xy) + 10</h3>
