Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean is the sum of all values divided by the amount of values.
We take the sum of all the numbers:
-3 + -8 + 12 + -15 + 9
-11 + 12 + -15 + 9
1 + -15 + 9
10 + -15
-5
We then divide the sum by how many number we have (we are given 5 numbers):
-5/5 = -1
Therefore, our mean is equal to -1.
There will be 38 grams remaining.
The equation would be of the form
y = a(1+r)ˣ, where a is the initial value, r is the rate as a decimal number, and x is the amount of time. Using our values from the problem, we have:
y = 670(1-0.273)^9 = 670(0.727)^9 = 38
The easiest way to find the factors of a pair of numbers, is simply to
write out the factors until you find the ones that they have in common.
So in this case, these factors would be listed as follows:
20: 1,2,4,5,10,20
50: 1,2,5,10,25,50.
From looking at these numbers, we can therefore see that the common factors are: 1,2,5,10
