Total money Marcus has = $28

Money spent to buy a notebook = $3.75

Money left now = 28-3.75=24.25

Money needed to be saved = $11.25

So, the amount of money Marcus can spend = 24.25-11.25=13

Cost of a packet of chips = $1.30

The inequality to determine the maximum number of chips he can buy is:

Let the number of chips Marcus can buy = x

As he cannot spend more than $13 to buy chips so equation becomes:

1.30x\leq 13

Solving this we get

x\leq 10

Hence, Marcus can buy a maximum of 10 packs of chips and  save $11.25

What are the mean and the median?​
lukranit [14]

Answer: The Mean is 12 while the median is 10.

Step-by-step explanation: To find the mean we need to add all points scored which equals 108 points. Next, you will divide this by the number of players that scored points. Because there are 9 players we will follow 108/9=12. To find the median, you write out each number from smallest to largest or largest to smallest and find the number in the middle, this should act somewhat like an average however i would recommend using the mean to find an average. When writing out all the number they should look something like this: 6,7,7,7,10,11,13,23,24

Now that we have written them out, we find the middle most number which is 10 which means that our median is 10.

The mean is 12 points.

The median is 10 points.

Triangle EFG in which segment EF measures 3 units and segment FG measures 5 units
Softa [21]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be 6 units. The rule relating to the sides of the triangle is that you should be able to add two sides and get a length that is longer than the third side. You usually add the lower two numbers because it basically says that it will work for all sides but, if you're still in doubt you just have to compare the numbers.

For Example

3+5 is greater than 6

5+6 is greater than 3

6+3 is greater than 5.

All of these makes sense so 6 can be a possible answer.
