Answer and Explanations

ACT score percentile help colleges compare students with one another, rather than just looking at everyone’s score. The score range is between 1 and 36, the highest score that one can receive on the ACT is 36. Moreover, 36 is the perfect score.

The maximum ACT score (36) is that in 2018, only 3,741 students (out of millions of test-takers) scored a perfect 36 on the ACT. The 99th percentile of test-takers includes those who earn 35 or 34 on the ACT. We can miss up to five questions on the ACT and still earn a 36. That is a reason why the maximum ACT score is 36 at the 100th percentile.

The ACT score report will provide more information about test-taking experience in the form of sub score. The higher the score, you will get into the colleges of your choice.

find three consecutive even integers so that the twice the sum of the second and third is twelve less than six times the first

zysi [14]

n, n + 2, n + 4 - three consecutive even integers

the twice the sum of the second and third: 2[(n + 2) + (n + 4)]

twelve less than six times the first: 6n - 12

The equation:

2[(n + 2) + (n + 4)] = 6n - 12

2(n + 2 + n + 4) = 6n - 12

2(2n + 6) = 6n - 12 <em>use distributive property</em>

(2)(2n) + (2)(6) = 6n - 12

4n + 12 = 6n - 12 <em>subtract 12 from both sides</em>

4n = 6n - 24 <em>subtract 6n from both sides</em>

-2n = -24 <em>divide both sides by (-2)</em>

n = 12

n + 2 = 12 + 2 = 14

n + 4 = 12 + 4 = 16

<h3>Answer: 12, 14, 16</h3>

3, 9, 10, 5, 8, 5, 9, 11, 10, 3, 10 Find the mean of the data.

slava [35]

Answer:

7.55

Step-by-step explanation:

An arithmetic mean is the average value of all the data points.

In order to find the average value, you add all the data points then divide the resulting sum by the number of data points there are.

The sum of all data points:

3 + 9 + 10 + 5 + 8 + 5 + 9 + 11 + 10 + 3 + 10 =

The number of data points:

3, 9, 10, 5, 8, 5, 9, 11, 10, 3, 10

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, 11 = 11 data points

Average value/ Mean:

83 / 11 = 7.545454545454 = rounded to 7.55
