Answer: It's either -6 or 12. I'm assuming it's 12 because it says "more than."

Step-by-step explanation:

You must account for both the number being more than 9 units smaller than 3 and being more than 9 units larger than 3. To do that, you set the absolute value of the difference between the number and 3 greater than 9.

Let x be the number

|x - 3| > 9

Now solve for x.

Suppose x - 3 is positive. Then

x - 3 > 9 ⇒ x > 12

Suppose x - 3 is negative. Then |x - 3| = -(x - 3) = 3 - x

Then

3 - x > 9 ⇒ x < -6

These are the 2 possibilities.

A box of granola weighs 24 ounces and a box of bran flacks weighs 6/8 as much as the ronal A box of Corn Pops weighs 1 1/8 as mu
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

54 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

A box of granola weighs 24 ounces and a box of bran flacks weighs 6/8 as much as the ronal

The number of ounces of the bran flakes = 6/8 of the box of the granola

= 6/8 × 24 ounces

= 18 ounces

A box of Corn Pops weighs 1 1/8 as much as the granola

Hence, the number of ounces of the box of corn pops =

1 1/8 of the granola box

= 9/8 × 24 ounces

= 27 ounces

The least number of ounces found in either box or ronal bran flakes or Corn Pops is calculated as:

We solve using LCM Method

Multiples of 18:

18, 36, 54, 72, 90

Multiples of 27:

27, 54, 81, 108

Therefore,

LCM(18, 27) = 54

The least number of ounces found in either box or ronal bran flakes or Corn Pops is 54 ounces

The values in a dataset are 3.5, 2.5, 2.5, 3.5, and 3.0. If Xbar (sample mean) = sigma X / n, what is the mean for the sample?
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

\bar x = 3.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x: 3.5, 2.5, 2.5, 3.5, 3.0

Required

The sample mean

This is calculated using:

\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}

So, we have:

\bar x = \frac{3.5+ 2.5+ 2.5+ 3.5+ 3.0}{5}

\bar x = \frac{15.0}{5}

\bar x = 3.0
