Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
16=x
16 square root is 4
16=4
x2
(4)2= 8
Alright, since there are 5 numbers, and the mean (or average) is (sum)/(amount of numbers), we have (sum)/5=14. Multiplying both sides by 5, we have the sum being 80. The median of 10 means that in a, b, c, d, e, 10 has to be c and the numbers have to be in ascending order. A and b must be 10 or lower, while d and e must be 10 or higher. Putting some random numbers in, we can have 1, 1, 10, 15, and e. We left e there because the sum needs to be 80, and since 1+1+10+15=27, 80-27=53=e. This, however, would not work if e was less than 10 and we therefore would have needed to make some numbers lower to compensate for this. Our answer is therefore 1, 1, 10, 15, 53
Answer:
The flower garden width would be 6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 12 ft^2 = x(x + 4) becomes:
x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0, or (by completing the square) x^2 + 4x + 4 - 4 - 12 = 0
Thus, we have (x + 2)^2 - 16 = 0, or (x + 2)^2 = 16
Taking the square root of both sides yields x + 2 = ±4.
In this context only a positive x value makes sense: x = 2 + 4 => x = 6.
The flower garden width would be 6 ft. The other dimension would be 6 - 4, or 2, ft.
X + 9 = 2x - 3
<u>-x -x </u>
9 = x - 3
<u> +3 +3</u>
12 = x
