Writing this word problem symbolically: 6x + 4 = x = 11.
Combining like terms, 5x = 7, and so x = 7/5 (answer)
Answer:
New mean=71.32
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression for the total initial score is;
T=M×S
where;
T=total initial score
M=mean score
S=number in the set
replacing;
T=unknown
M=72
S=17
replacing;
T=72×17=1,224
The total initial score=1,224
Determine the total score by;
total score=total initial score+total final score
where;
total initial score=1,224
total final score=(68+63)=131
replacing;
total score=1,224+131=1,355
Determine the new mean;
New mean=total score/new number
where;
total score=1,355
new number=(17+2)=19
replacing;
new mean=1,355/19=71.32
Step-by-step explanation:
"Solutions to the equation" just means that they are points on the line. To find out if these two points land on this line, plug each one in, like this:
1.5 = (1/4)(1) + (5/4)
1.5 = (1/4) + (5/4)
1.5 = (6/4)
1.5 = 1.5
Since the expression is true, this point is on the line.
Do the same process for the second point (remember a point is formatted (x,y)) and see if it is also a point on the line.
To find the x-intercept, simply plug in 0 for y and see what you get. It should look like (x,0).
