So what I would do is first multiply the mean by 4 and that is the total u need, 146.5, to have a mean of 36 and 5/8. Next I add the lengths given, which is 110.625, and then I would subtract it from 146.5 which is 35.875 which is 35 and 7/8. You can also check the answer by finding the mean of the 4 numbers and determining if it comes out to 36 and 5/8. The answer is C. Hope this helps!
Right side:
(1/27)^(2x+10)
=(3^-3)^(2x+10)
= 3^(-6x - 30)
Re-write both sides:
3^(4x-5) = 3^(-6x - 30)
from here, you can solve x
4x - 5 = -6x - 30
4x + 6x = -30 + 5
10x = -25
x = -2.5
This is just about substitution!! 9(5)-3(5), 3 • 5 = 15
9 • 5 = 45
so Now you have, 45 - 15 = 30
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the age of the youngest child
Let x + 1 = the age of the middle child
Let x + 2 = the age of the oldest child
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 39
3x + 3 = 39
3x = 36
x = 12 years
Answer:
108 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
For the polygon on the left, we are given the length of one side (3 ft) and the total area (27 ft²). With this information, we can determine the length of the other side - 9 ft. I found this by dividing 27 ft² by 3 ft, giving me the final result of 9 ft.
Next, we have to find the other side of the polygon on the <em>right</em> so we can ultimately determine its area. It looks like there is a scale factor of 2 between the two polygons, since 3 × 2 = 6. We know that the bottom side of the left polygon is 9, so multiplying 9 by 2 should give us the bottom side of the polygon on the right. 9 × 2 = 18.
Now, we have the side lengths for the polygon on the right and can determine its area. What is 6 ft × 18 ft? Well, the answer is 107 ft², and this is the answer to the question.
Hopefully that's helpful! :)
