Answer: The value of x is 7 and the value of y is 8.

Explanation:

It is given that 5 whole numbers are written in order, 4, 6, x, y, 10. The mean and median of the 5 numbers are the same.

Mean=\frac{\text{Sum of observations}}{\text{No. of observations}}

Mean=\frac{4+6+x+y+10}{5}

Mean=\frac{20+x+y}{5}

The 5 numbers are arranged in ascending order. The total numbers are 5 which is odd number so the median is  (\frac{n+1}{2})_{th}  term.

n=5

\frac{n+1}{2}th=\frac{5+1}{2}th=3rd

The third term is median. So the median is x.

Since mean and median are same.

\frac{20+x+y}{5}=x

20+x+y=5x

20=4x-y     ... (1)

Since the whole numbers are arranged in the ascending order therefore the value of x and y must a whole number greater than 6 and less than 10.

Put x=7 in equation (1).

20=4(7)-y

y=8

Therefore, the value of x and y are 7 and 8 respectively.

Put x=8.

20=4(8)-y

y=12>10

Therefore the value of x can not be 8 or not more than that.

Bob ran the first part of a 12 km race at a speed of 8 kmph. He ran the second part of the

race at 10 kmph. If his total time for the entire race was 1.74 hours, how far did he run in

the first part of the race?

First part :

Total Distance = 12 km

Answer:

  $1790.99

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>:

  $1625 is invested at an annual rate of 1.95% compounded quarterly for 5 years

<u>Find</u>:

  the ending balance

<u>Solution</u>:

The compound interest formula applies.

  FV = P(1 +r/n)^(nt) . . . Principal P at rate r for t years, compounded n per year

  FV = $1625(1 +0.0195/4)^(4·5) = $1625(1.004875^20) ≈ $1790.99

The account ending balance would be $1790.99.

Which of the systems of equations below is equivalent to the system shown?
amm1812

Answer:

D.....is\:   the \: equivalent \: system

Step-by-step explanation:

if \to 4x + 5y = 3 \\ if  \to 2x + 3y = 1 \\then \\ 2 \times  \: 4x + 5y = 3 \\ 4 \times 2x + 3y = 1 \\ 10y - 12y = 6 - 4 \\  - 2y = 2 \\ \boxed{ y =  - 1} \\ 4x  +  5y = 3 \\ 4x  +5( - 1) = 3 \\ 4x  -  5 = 3 \\ 4x = 3  + 5 \\ 4x =  8 \\  \boxed{x =  2} \\ hence \: the \: equivalent \: system \: is \to D \\
