The mean is where you add all of the numbers in that set together, and divide it by the amount of numbers you have. E.g. For Set 1 - 10 + 15 + 20 + 25 + 30 + 50 = 150 ÷ 6 = 25
For Set 2 you just repeat the process:
1. Add the numbers in the set together, this gives you a total of 111
2. Then divide 111 by 5 as you have 5 numbers, giving you 22.2
Therefore set 1 has the higher mean :)
The answer is C, set 1, 25 :)
Given your ordered pair you would assume a = 5, b = 2
Set up both equations
5 + 2 = 7
7 = 7 (the numbers are equal so this correct)
2(5) - 8 = 2
10 - 8 = 2
2 = 2 (the numbers are equal so this is also correct)
Because both equations work with the ordered pair they <em>are</em><span> the solution of the given system.</span>

Problem Solving
Linear equations are often used to solve practical problems that have an unknown quantity. We use a suitable pronumeral to represent the unknown quantity, translate the information given in the problem into an equation, and then solve the equation using the skills acquired earlier in this chapter.
Example 11
If a number is increased by 8, the result is 25. Find the number.
Solution:
Let x be the number. Increasing x by 8 gives x + 8, which we are told is 25. Therefore, x + 8 = 25. Subtract 8 from both sides to find x = 17. So, the number is 17.

Answer:
16.2
Step-by-step explanation:
r = k/x
72 = k/9
k = 72*9
When r = 40 ,
x = k/r
x = 72*9/40 = 16.2
Answer:
P (black marble) =3/11
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the total number of marbles
4 black marbles+ 2 red marbles+ 6 white marbles= 12 marbles
We take away a black marble and throw it away
3 black marbles+ 2 red marbles+ 6 white marbles= 11 marbles
The probability of drawing a black marble is
P (black marble) = black/total
=3/11
