Since we are asked to find the rate of change from Monday to Wednesday, we are dividing by 2, since Monday is day 1 and Wednesday is day 3. 3 - 1 = 2.
1800 + 500 = 2300 calories consumed Tuesday.
2300 - 100 = 2200 calories Wednesday.
(2200 - 1800)/2 = 400/2 = 200 calories
Z= 138/625 or in decimal form it’s 0.2208
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a,b,c,d and e are five numbers
mean = (a +b+ c+ d+e)/5 = 30
⇒ (a +b+ c+ d+e) = 150_______(1)
now, Let the number excluded be a
then, new mean = (b+ c+ d+e)/4 = 28
⇒ (b+ c+ d+e)= 112
putting this value in (1),
⇒a + 112 = 150
⇒a = 150 -112 = 38
excluded number = 38
Hi
You can choose to points (x,y) which solve the equation, like (0,-3) and (4,0) and then draw a line through the points.
