If the average of three numbers is V if one number is Z and another is y what is the remaining number ?

Mathematics

The formula for an average of three numbers is (x+y+z)/3.  So if V equals the average, then we find the formula
V = (x+y+z)/3
We are now looking for x.  We can divide each of the variables in the parentheses by 3, making the formula
V = x/3 + y/3 + z/3
So now bring the unwanted variables to the same side as V.
V - y/3 - z/3 = x/3
Now multiply both sides by 3 to find x.
3V - y - z = x

x = 3V - y - z

Can some please answer this
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

  B  (2 violet)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the colors be represented by their first letter. Then the balances give rise to two equation:

  o +y +b +v = r +g +b

  o +y +v = g +v

Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...

  (o +y +b +v) -(o +y +v) = (r +g +b) -(g +v)

  b = r +b -v

Adding v-b to both sides, we have ...

  b +(v -b) = r +b -v +(v -b)

  v = r

Multiplying this result by 2, we can match the final balance:

  2r = 2v . . . . . . . choice B

If x and y vary directly and x=25 when y=100 find x when y=24.<br> PLEASE HELP FASTTTTTTT
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that x and y vary directly then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition x = 25 when y = 100 , then

100 = 25k ( divide both sides by 25 )

4 = k

y = 4x ← equation of variation

When y = 24 , then

24 = 4x ( divide both sides by 4 )

6 = x

A group of 48 senior citizens attended a baseball game. The number of women in attendance was 12 more than the number of men. Ho
Sergio [31]

Answer:

18 men attended the baseball game, and 30 women attended the baseball game.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of men in attendance be x and the number of women in attendance be x+12.

No. of men + <em>No. of women</em> = <u>48 </u>

x +<em> x + 12</em> = <u>48</u>

2x + 12 = 48

2x = 48 - 12

    = 36

x = 36 ÷ 2

x = 18

x+12: 18 + 12 = 30
