Answer:

  53.2 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Let E represent Esther's weight. Then Henry's weight is E/2, and David's weight is E-5.2. Their average weight is ...

  ((E-5.2) + E + (E/2))/3 = 42.6

  2.5E -5.2 = 127.8 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 3, simplify

  2.5E = 133 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 5.2

  E = 133/2.5 = 53.2 . . . . kg

Esther's weight is 53.2 kg.

Multiplying a trinomial by a trinomial follows the same steps as multiplying a binomial by a trinomial. Determine the degree and
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Degree = 4

Maximum possible number of terms for = 5

Solution:

Given expression:

\left(x^{2}+x+2\right)\left(x^{2}-2 x+3\right)

To multiply the trinomial by a trinomial:

\left(x^{2}+x+2\right)\left(x^{2}-2 x+3\right)

Multiply each of the first term by the each of the second term.

            =x^{2}(x^{2}-2 x+3)+x(x^{2}-2 x+3)+2(x^{2}-2 x+3)

            =(x^{4}-2 x^3+3x^2)+(x^{3}-2 x^2+3x)+(2x^{2}-4 x+6)

Remove the brackets and arrange the terms with same powers together.

            =x^{4}-2 x^3+x^{3}+3x^2-2 x^2+2x^{2}+3x-4 x+6

            =x^{4}- x^3+3x^2- x+6

The product of the trinomials is x^{4}- x^3+3x^2- x+6.

Degree is the highest power of the variable.

Degree = 4

Maximum possible number of terms for = 5

The average (arithmetic mean) of k scores
denis23 [38]

Answer:

(E) (20k - 150)/(k - 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of all scores = average × number of scores = 20 × k = 20k

                   Sum of 10 scores = 15 × 10 =150

      Sum of remaining scores = 20k - 150

Number of remaining scores = k -10

Average of remaining scores = sum of remaining/no. remaining

= (20 k -150)/(k-10)
