Two sections of a class took the same quiz. Section A had 15 students who had a mean score of 80, and Section B had 20 students
Ksju [112]

Answer:

86

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the average mean score for a group of students split into two different emerging groups.

We calculate the total score for each of the groups. This is done by multiplying the average score by the number of students.

Total score of section A is 15 * 80 = 1,200

For section B, total score is 20 * 90 = 1,800

Overall score is thus 1200 + 1800 = 3000

We add the scores together and divide by the total number of students in both sections

Average score is thus 3000/35 = 85.71 which is approximately 86

Chloe drew a triangle with side lengths of 30 centimeters, 24 centimeters, and 18 centimeters. Juan drew a triangle with side le
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

Each side in Chloe's triangle is 1.5 times the length of each side in Juan's triangle.  Thus, they are 'similar' by the <u>math </u>definition of that word, by the SSS Rule for Similar Triangles.

That means they are different only in size. So, their angle measures are the same and they are the same shape.

A and B are true.

C is never true, because the sum of all 3 angles in a triangle is always 180°.

D is not true, because they are similar.

A local little league has a total of 90 players of whom 20% are left-handed. How many left-handed players are there? Please help
german
18

First you want to change the 20% into a decimal which is .20
Next you want to multiply 90 by .20 because that will give you the answer for 20% of 90
90x.20=18

Hope that helps

3x - 2y + 3z = -20<br> 4x - 3y - 2z = 7<br> -5x + 5y + z = 9
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

x= 4 y= 7 z= -6

Step-by-step explanation:

solve for one and you get them all

First, I got rid of the z by multiplying common factors (multiplied z by 2) and added equations 2 and 3 together after multiplying by 2

4x - 3y - 2z = 7

-10x+10y+2z= 18

-6x+7y= 25

Then multiplied z by -3 (to get rid of the z) with the original equation 3

3x - 2y + 3z = -20

15x-15y-3z= -27

18x-17y= -47

Next find common thing between the 2 equations we got and multiply it by that and combine (we can multiply first equation by 3 to get rid of the x and solve for y)

-18x+21y= 75

18x-17y= -47

y=7

Work backwards, substitute 7 into the above equation, you get x= 4 and then same for z to get z= -6

What is the solution to the system of equations shown below?
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

  b.  (1, 3, ­-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

A graphing calculator or scientific calculator can solve this system of equations for you, or you can use any of the usual methods: elimination, substitution, matrix methods, Cramer's rule.

It can also work well to try the offered choices in the given equations. Sometimes, it can work best to choose an equation other than the first one for this. The last equation here seems a good one for eliminating bad answers:

  a: -1 -5(1) +2(-4) = -14 ≠ -18

  b: 1 -5(3) +2(-2) = -18 . . . . potential choice

  c: 3 -5(8) +2(1) = -35 ≠ -18

  d: 2 -5(-3) +2(0) = 17 ≠ -18

This shows choice B as the only viable option. Further checking can be done to make sure that solution works in the other equations:

  2(1) +(3) -3(-2) = 11 . . . . choice B works in equation 1

  -(1) +2(3) +4(-2) = -3 . . . choice B works in equation 2
