Answer:

The answer to your question is: y = -54 / 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (3, 0)

B (12, -9)

r = 6/5

Formula

y = \frac{y1 + ry2}{1 +r}

y = \frac{0 + (6/5)(-9)}{1 + 6/5}

y = \frac{-54/ 5}{11/5}

y = -54/11

165 ounces for 11 boxes.  I want to know the weight of 1 box.  How do I get 11 boxes to be 1 box.  Divide it by 11.

11/11 = 1 box.  Since I chose 11 I have to also use 11 for the ounces
165/11 = 15 ounces per box

How do u find the mean median mode and range?
seropon [69]
Mean is the average. So you add up all the numbers and divide by how many numbers there were.

Mode is the number that occurred the most.

Median is the number that is in the middle when you list the numbers from least to greatest or greatest to least.

Range is calculated when you subtract the biggest number in the group by the smallest number.
