We have to remember that the mean will increase or decrease because you add all number to get it. The median is the middle number.
3600kg is the median, it will not change. So the mean will decrease due to the loss of weight.

Lunna [17]
Let's solve by eliminating
x
. Since 18 is the lowest common multiple , let's multiply the first equation by 3 and the second by -2.

Add the two equations.

Divide by -11 to isolate
y

y= -2

Substitute
y
=
−
2
into either of the 2 equations, I'll just use the second one.

Harman [31]
Shawntelle must be talking about the base (B) of the triangle.  This is because the base area (B) of the pyramid is area, so the unit must be INCHES SQUARED, not inches.  However, the base of the triangle is a one-dimensional line and so can be described by length in inches.

Answer: base of triangle

Ivan's favorite colors are \blue{\text{blue}}blue and \green{\text{green}}green. He has \blue{\text{1 blue shirt}}1 blue shirt,
Ivan

Answer:

P(A or B) = 2/3                      

Step-by-step explanation:

Blue Garments = 1 blue shirt, 1 blue hat, 1 blue pair of pants

Total blue garments = 3

Green garments= 1 green shirt, 1 green hat, 1 green pair of pants

Total green garments = 3

Total no. of garments = blue garments +green garments = 6

A = event that Ivan selects a green garment

P(A) = Favourable outcomes/Total no. of outcomes

P(A)    = 3/6

B = event that Ivan chooses a pair of pants

P(B) = 2/6

We need to find P(A or B) = P(A∪B)

By formula, P(A∪B) = P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)

P(A∩B) = Probability that a green pair of pant is chosen = 1/6

P(A∪B) = 3/6+2/6-1/6

           = 4/6

           =2/3
