---------------------------------------------------
Define x and y :
---------------------------------------------------
Let x the number of 2.5M downloads.
Let y the number of 4.6M downloads.

---------------------------------------------------
Construct Equations :
--------------------------------------------------
There was a total of 1230 downloads.
⇒ x + y = 1230

Total downloaded size was 4797M.
⇒2.5x + 4.6y = 4797

---------------------------------------------------
Find x and y :
---------------------------------------------------
x + y = 1230 -------------------- (1)
2.5x + 4.6y = 4797 ------------ (2)

---------------------------------------------------
From equation 1 :
---------------------------------------------------
x + y = 1230
x = 1230 - y                               // Take away y on both sides

---------------------------------------------------
Sub x = 1230 - y into equation 2 :
---------------------------------------------------
2.5 (1230 - y) + 4.6y = 4797      // Sub x = 1230 
3075 - 2.5y + 4.6y = 4797         // Apply distributive property
3075 + 2.1y = 4797                   // Combine like terms
2.1y = 1722                               // Take away 3075 from both sides
y = 820                                      // Divide by 2.1 on both sides

---------------------------------------------------
Sub y = 820 into equation 1 to find x :
---------------------------------------------------
x + y = 1230   
x + 820 = 1230                        // Sub y = 820
x = 410                                     // Take away 820 from both sides

---------------------------------------------------
Find the number of each type of downloads :
---------------------------------------------------
Number of 2.5M downloads = x = 410
Number of 4.6M downloads = y = 820 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: There were 410 downloads for the standard version.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How can you get equation b from equation A. 3(x+2)=18 B. X+2=18
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

We start with the equation:

A: 3*(x + 2) = 18

And we want to construct equation B:

B: X + 2 = 18

where I suppose that X is different than x.

Because in both equations the right side is the same thing, then the left side also should be the same thing, this means that:

3*(x + 2) = X + 2

Now we can isolate the variable x.

(x + 2) = (X + 2)/3

x = (X + 2)/3 - 2

Then we need to replace x by  (X + 2)/3 - 2 in equation A, and we will get equation B.

Let's do it:

A: 3*(x + 2) = 18

Now we can replace x by =  (X + 2)/3 - 2

3*( (X + 2)/3 - 2 + 2) = 18

3*(  (X + 2)/3 ) = 18

3*(X + 2)/3 = 18

(X + 2) = 18

Which is equation B.

URGENT<br>please find the mean and standard deviation too​ (number 6)
adell [148]

Answer:To calculate the standard deviation of those numbers:

1.Work out the Mean (the simple average of the numbers)

2.Then for each number: subtract the Mean and square the result.

3.Then work out the mean of those squared differences.

4.Take the square root of that and we are done!
