While solving an equation the first step is to get the variable (x) alone on either side.
2.3 x - 1.6 = 8.8 - 2.9 x
+ 1.6 +1.6
2.3 x = 10.4 - 2.9 x
2.3 x - 1.6 = 8.8 - 2.9 x
-8.8 - 8.8
2.3 x - 10.4 = 2.9 x
2.3 x - 1.6 = 8.8 - 2.9 x
+2.9 x + 2.9 x
5.2 x -1.6 = 8.8
<span>A sample of n=8 has an ss=50 if these were a population the ss value of the population would be
(50/8) of the sample = 6.25 of sample. Usually, ss value of the population i s calculated by dividing ss by the sample values. This is the way to calculate ss value of the population.</span>
79. Set up an equation to solve this problem. Suppose she needs at least a score of x points. Her current total scores is 89+65+68+88=310. Her total score will be 310+2x (since final exams counts as two tests). The average score is total points divided by number of tests, and it has be bigger or equal to 78, so (310+2x)/6>=78. We solve it and get x=79. She has to score at least 79 on her final exam in order to jhave an overall average of 78.
