mean = sum/n
mean = (5 + 7 + 7 + 9 + 12 + 16 + 21)/7
mean = 77/7
mean = 11
47.5% in decimal form is 0.475.
Since the price was increased, we add 1 to 0.475 to get 1.475.
80 * 1.475 = 118
Another way to solve this is to multiply 80 by 0.475, which is 38, then add it to 80.
The retail price of the shoes is $118.
The first thing you should do is calculate how many pounds of cheese a hamburger has
1 hamburger = 1/4 pound of cheese.
Then, you can make a rule of three to know how many pounds of cheese were sold:
1 ---> 1/4
310 ---> x
Clearing x we have:
x = ((310) / (1)) * (1/4) = 77.5
Answer
they sell last saturday 77.5 pounds of cheese
$9.00 per hour. take 45 and divide by 5 you get 9.
(3x + 4)2 = 14
(3x + 4)2 means that 2 will multiply both 3x and 4
2 * 3x = 6x 2 * 4 = 8
6x + 8 = 14
Move +8 to the other side of the equation
6x = 14 - 8 Note : Moving +8 to the other side will change the sign in front of it, that is from + to -
6x = 14 - 8
6x = 6
Divide both sides by 6 because of the 6 beside the x : 6x
6x/6 = 6/6
x = 1
