Answer: The mean of the data set is 25.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the mean of a data set, first add up all the values.
17 + 34 + 19 + 27 + 30 + 23 = 150
Then divide the sum by the amount of values in the data set. Our sum here is 150 and the amount of data values is 6.
150 ÷ 6 = 25
I love these problems, because it's just about reading the question. All you need to do is break it down. What do we know the "sum of" something is? We know that it means addition. What are we adding? "three times a number b and 33". Well, how can we express "three times b"? 3b! Right! Well, we know we're adding that to 33, so you're almost done. Right now you should have 3b+33. And what <em>is</em> 3b+33? at least 33. How can we express "at least"? >=, greater than or equal to, right! Finally, we have our answer. 3b+33>=35.
Let’s try the pythagorean formula.
1) 8^2+15^2=17^2
289=289 Yes
2) 7^2+24^2=26^2
625 ≠ 676 No
3) 6^2+8^2=11^2
100 ≠ 121 No
4) 10^2+24^2=25^2
676 ≠ 625 No
Therefor, 8,15,17 is your answer
