Hi there

One pound of salmon will cost $13, and one pound of tuna will cost $8.

Here's why.

X will be the cost of pound of salmon, and y will be the cost of a pound of tuna.
| 15x+8y=259
| 12x+6y-204

6y = 204-12x
y=34-2x

15x+8(34-2x)=259
272-259=16x-15x
x=13

y=34-2*13
y=34-26
y=8

So, again...
1lb Salmon : $13
1lb Tuna : $8

This is a parabola open upward (since a>0) with an axis of symmetry = -b/2a:
a) axis of symmetry: x = -(-8)/(2*2) = 8/4 = 2. Then x = 2, which is the x component of the vertex

Mean is the "meanest" because it requires the most work. Add up the values in your data set and divide by the number of terms in the data.

Let x represent attendees at Harry's Hoedown, then

Mean = \frac{Martha's (M) + Shirly's (S)  + Harry's (x) }{3}

41 = \frac{48 + 33 + x}{3}

123 = 48 + 33 + x

123 = 81 + x

42 = x

Answer: 42

usa el teorema de la altura para proponer como se podria construir un segmento cuya longitud sea media proporcional entre dos se
Mrac [35]
Usando el teorema de altura 

El teorema de altura relaciona la altura (h) de un triángulo rectángulo (ver figura) y los catetos de dos triángulos que son semejantes al anterior ABC, al trazar la altura (h) sobre la hipotenusa. De manera que e<span>n todo </span>triángulo rectángulo, la altura (h<span>) relativa a la </span>hipotenusa<span> es la </span>media geométrica<span> de las dos proyecciones de los </span>catetos<span> sobre la </span>hipotenusa<span> (</span>n<span> y </span>m<span>). Es decir, se cumple que:

</span>\frac{n}{h}= \frac{h}{m}

Dado que el problema establece <span>construir un segmento cuya longitud sea media proporcional entre dos segmentos de 4 y 9 cm, entonces, digamos que n = 4cm y m = 9cm tenmos que:

</span>\frac{4}{h}= \frac{h}{9}

De donde:

h= \sqrt{(4)(9)}=\sqrt{36}=6cm

¿Cómo se podria construir si los segmentos son de a cm y b cm?

Si los segmentos son de a y b cm entonces a y b son parámetros que pueden tomar cualquier valor positivo siempre que se cumpla que:

h= \sqrt{ab}
