The average of 4, 9, 16, 25 and x is 2x means that;
(4+9+16+25+x)/5=2x
Multiply both side by 5
5(54+x)/5=2x(5)
54+x=10x
Subtract x to both side
54+x-x=10x-x
54=9x
Divided 9 to both side
54/9=9x/9
x=6
Check:
Substitute x with 6
(4+9+16+25+x)/5=2x
(4+9+16+25+6)/5=2(6)
60/5=12
12=12; so x=6 which marks B as the correct answer. Have a nice day!

How much of a 3/4 cup serving is in a 2/3 of yogurt
lukranit [14]
To figure this problem out, we need to divide 2/3 by 3/4.

2/3 / 3/4 = 8/9 or 0.888888 repeating.

Therefore, there are 8/9 of the 3/4 cup servings in 2/3 cup of yogurt.

A circular jogging track forms the edge of a circular lake that has a diameter of 2 miles. Johanna walked once around the track
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

  C.  2.0 < t < 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

  time = distance / speed

The circumference of the lake is given by ...

  C = πd = 2π miles ≈ 6.28 miles

Then Johanna's time is ...

  (6.28 mi)/(3 mi/h) ≈ 2.09 h

This time is in the interval (2, 2.5), so matches choice C.

___

<em>Alternate solution</em>

If we take pi to be 3, then this boils down to ...

  2×3/3 = 2 . . . hours

Pi is on the order of 5% more than 3, so her time will be on the order of 5% more than 2 hours, or just above 2, but not as great as 2.5 hours. This sort of estimating can get you to the correct answer without a calculator.

How does the value of log Subscript 2 Baseline 100 compare with the value of Log Subscript 6 Baseline 20?.
attashe74 [19]

You can use the change of base formula to get

\log_2(100) = \frac{\log(100)}{\log(2)} \approx 6.643856

and also

\log_6(20) = \frac{\log(20)}{\log(6)} \approx 1.671950

In general, the change of base formula is

\log_b(x) = \frac{\log(x)}{\log(b)}
