Answer:

The highest possible average is 348

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

No more than 60 means -----> maximum 60 ( less than or equal to 60)

To find the possible average using proportion

Remember that the average is the number of hits in 1,000 times at bat

If the average is 300 with maximum 60 times at bat

then

The number of hits is 60*300/1,000=18  hits

If the player gets 5 hits in her next 6 times at bat

then

In 66 times at bat the number of hits is 18+5=23 hits

Find out the average

Let

x ----> the average

\frac{66}{23}=\frac{1,000}{x}\\\\x=23*1,000/66\\\\x=348

Answer: x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these are supplementary angles, we know that if we add them together we would get 180 deg. so....

(7x-10)+ (6x-5)=180

Kay so now we can combine like terms.

13x-15=180

Now we can add 15 to both sides.

13x=195

Finally Divide 13 on both sides.

X would then now equal 15.

Using the quadratic formula to solve 2x2 = 4x – 7, what are the values of x? 2 plus-or-minus StartRoot 10 EndRoot i 1 plus-or-mi
ioda

Answer:

x = 1 +/- \frac{i\sqrt{10} }{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given is:

2x^2 = 4x - 7\\\\2x^2 - 4x + 7 = 0

Using quadratic formula:

x = \frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}

From the question:

a = 2, b = -4, c = 7

Therefore:

x = \frac{4 +/- \sqrt{(-4)^2 - 4 * 2 * 7} }{2 * 2}\\\\x = \frac{4 +/- \sqrt{(16 - 56)} }{4}\\\\x = \frac{4 +/- \sqrt{-40} }{4}\\

=> x = 1 +/- \frac{i\sqrt{10} }{2}
