To find the mean, add all the values and then divide the sum by how many values you added. In this case, if the teacher drops the lowest score (68) that would leave 5 values. So,

90 + 83 + 88 + 74 + 80 = 415 < this is the total of all (minus the lowest) or Lorenzo's test scores. Now take this number, and divide it by 5 (because we added five tests together):

415 / 5 = 83 < this is the new mean, and also his percentage grade. 

Answer: 83

Alternatively, you can list the grades from least to greatest, and cancel one value from each side until you get to the middle.

Solve for x<br> 6x + 9 &lt; 63
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

x < 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given inequality:

6x + 9 < 63

Subtract 9 from both sides:

⇒ 6x + 9 - 9 < 63 - 9

⇒ 6x < 54

Divide both sides by 6:

⇒ 6x ÷ 6 < 54 ÷ 6

⇒ x < 9

Sue has 100 dimes and quarters. If the total value of the coins is $21.40, how many of each kind of coins does she have?
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

There would be 24 dimes and 76 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, start by defining the number of dimes by x and the number of quarters as y. Now we can create a system of equations. Make the first about the total number of coins.

x + y = 100

Make the second about the amount of money.

.10x + .25y = 21.40

Now we can solve using elimination by multiplying the second equation by -4 and adding through.

x + y = 100

-.40x - y = -85.60

-----------------------

.60x = 14.4

x = 24

Now we can use the amount of dimes we have to find the number of quarters.

x + y = 100

24 + y = 100

y = 76
