Lets just say hypothetically that x=7. So to find the odd number before 7 we need to subtract a number. The odd before 7 is 5 which is 7-2. So by subtracting 2 from a odd value you get the odd value befire it so your equation is x-2

The average (arithmetic mean) of 7 numbers in a certain list is 12. The average of the 4 smallest numbers in this list is 8, whi
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 4 greatest numbers be, A, B, C D

(A + B + C + D)/4 = 8

Total sum = 4 × 8

= 32

Let the 4 lowest numbers be, D, E F G,

(D + E + F + G)/4 = 20

Total number = 4 × 20

= 80

Hence, the difference between the sums of the 3 greatest number and the 3 smallest numbers:

A, B, C and E, F, G

= D + (E + F + G) - (A + B + C) - D

= (E + F + G) - (A + B + C)

= 80 - 32

= 48.

Kryger [21]

Answer:

$230,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Contribution margin = Sales - Variable costs

=($250,000 - $137,500)

= $112,500

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin ÷ Sales

= ($112,500 ÷ $250,000)

= 0.45

Basically

Break-even sales = Fixed expenses ÷ Contribution margin ratio

=($103,500 ÷ 0.45)

= $230,000

If both sides of an inequality are multiplied or divided by the same negative number, the direction of the inequality symbol is
Luba_88 [7]

Answer: reversed.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition, when you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality  by the same negative number, then the direction of the inequality symbol must be reversed.

2. To understand this better, let's write the inequality shown below:

4>2

The symbol > means "greater than".

If you multiply both sides of the inequality by -1, you obtain:

(-1)4>2(-1)

-4>-2 (This is false, because -4 is not greater than -2)

But, if the symbol is reversed, then:

-4 (This is true because -4 is less than -2)

The symbol < means "less than".
