Answer:Next  homework  Score should be  87.

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1

Listing the scores in ascending order ie from least to greatest gives

74, 82, 83, 85, 87, 88, 91,92, 96

STEP 2

we find the median--- The median score is the score  that is in the middle of the set of results when arranged from lowest to highest as we have done above , which give  us 87 as the median.

74, 82, 83, 85,   87,    88, 91,92, 96

Also Mode is the score with the highest frequency , ie the score which appears more than other numbers. For now we have no mode as all the numbers occurred once

Therefore in next exam, I should get a score of 87,  making my scores to become

74, 82, 83, 85, 87, 87, 88, 91,92, 96

Now my mode becomes 87 ( highest frequency of  occurrence ) and

My median becomes (87+ 87)/2 = 87  ( with the addition of a new score the total score become ten, which is now even, so we divide the addtion of the two middle numbers by 2 )

If x varies inversely as y, and x=27 when y=6 find x when y=2
kondaur [170]

For this case we have that the inverse variation is defined as:

y = \frac {k} {x}

Where:

k: It is the constant of proportionality

According to the statement we have:

x = 27\\y = 6\\6 = \frac {k} {27}

We find the constant of proportionality:

k = 27 * 6\\k = 162

Then we find the value of x when y = 2:

2 = \frac {162} {x}\\x = \frac {162} {2}\\x = 81

Answer:

x = 81

Someone help ASAP!!!!!!
Alchen [17]

Answer:

Length, l = 11 ft.

Width, w = 9 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given data, the area of the rectangle = 99 ft².

Area of the rectangle = Length, l X Width, w

Here, Length, l = 7 more than twice the width

⇒       Length, l = 7 + 2w

Therefore, Area, A = 99 = (7 + 2w)w

⇒ 99 = 7w + 2w²

⇒ 2w² + 7w - 99 = 0

Solve the Quadratic equation using the formula: x = $ \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} $ for the quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0.

Therefore, w = $ \frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{7^2 -4(2)(-99)}}{2(2)} $

$ = \frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{49 + 8(99)}}{4} $

$ = \frac{-7 \pm + \sqrt{841}}{4} $

Since, $ \sqrt{841} = 29 $ we get:

$ w = \frac{-7 \pm 29}{4} $

This gives two values of 'w', viz., w = $ \frac{-7 - 29}{4} $, $ \frac{-7 + 29}{4} $

$ \implies w = \frac{22}{4}, \frac{-36}{4} $

⇒ w = $ \frac{22}{4} $, -9.

We take the integer values.

If w = -9, then l = 2(-9) + 7

⇒ l = - 18 + 7 = - 11

Therefore, the length, l of the rectangle = - 11 ft.

and the width, w of the rectangle = - 9 ft.

Hence, the answer.
