Answer:

add all the numbers together then divide that number my all the numbers you have

Step-by-step explanation: lets say you have 10,20,43,52,65 if you add them together you would get 190 so you would divide by the amount of numbers you have which would be 5 and the average for that set is 38

The mean is the average of the numbers. It is easy to calculate: add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are. In other words it is the sum divided by the count.

Solve 2x2 + 20x = −38. (1 point)

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The solutions are $x=-5+\sqrt{6}$ and $x=-5-\sqrt{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$2x^{2} +20x=-38$

Divide by $2$ both sides

$x^{2} +10x=-19$ ------> $x^{2} +10x+19=0$

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form $ax^{2} +bx+c=0$ is equal to

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

in this problem we have

$x^{2} +10x+19=0$

$a=1\\b=10\\c=19$

substitute

$x=\frac{-10(+/-)\sqrt{10^{2}-4(1)(19)}}{2(1)}$

$x=\frac{-10(+/-)\sqrt{100-76}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-10(+/-)\sqrt{24}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-10(+/-)2\sqrt{6}}{2}$

$x1=\frac{-10(+)2\sqrt{6}}{2}=-5+\sqrt{6}$

$x2=\frac{-10(-)2\sqrt{6}}{2}=-5-\sqrt{6}$

Asa saves dimes and quarters so that he will have exact change for he bus. He dabs and then dumps the container that he has been

koban [17]

Asa has 15 dimes and 32 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total coins = 47

Worth of coins = $9.50 = 9.50*100 = 950 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

1 quarter = 25 cents

Let,

Number of dimes = x

Number of quarters = y

According to given statement;

x+y=47 Eqn 1

10x+25y=950 Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 10

$10(x+y=47)\\10x+10y=470\ \ \ Eqn\ 3$

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

$(10x+25y)-(10x+10y)=950-470\\10x+25y-10x-10y=480\\15y=480$

Dividing both sides by 15

$\frac{15y}{15}=\frac{480}{15}\\y=32$

Putting y=32 in Eqn 1

$x+32=47\\x=47-32\\x=15$

Asa has 15 dimes and 32 quarters.

Use the function notation to write a recursive formula to represent the sequence: 4, 8, 12, ...

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The correct answer is f(n) = f(n − 1) + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider the sequence: 4, 8, 12, …

Using f(n) = f(n − 1) + 4, we can easily get the sequence.

As the first term is 4 and next term is obtained by adding 4 to the first term.

i.e. 4+4 = 8

8+4 = 12

12+4 = 16 and so on.

Since the next term is obtained by adding 4 to the previous term.

So, f(n) = f(n-1) + 4 would be the correct recursive formula for the function of the sequence 4, 8, 12, ....

Verification:

f(n) = f(n-1) + 4

Putting n=2 in f(n) = f(n-1) + 4 to get the second term of the sequence.

f(2) = f(2-1) + 4

f(2) = f(1) + 4

f(2) = 4 + 4

f(2) = 8

Putting n=3 in f(n) = f(n-1) + 4 to get the third term of the sequence.

f(3) = f(3-1) + 4

f(3) = f(2) + 4

So, adding 4 in f(2)=8 would give us the next term i.e. 12

f(3) = 8 + 4

f(3) = 12

jada can write 3 1/4 pages in 8 minutes. At this rate, how many pages could jada write in 24 minutes?

makkiz [27]

Answer:

9 3/4 pages = x

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{pages}{minutes} = \frac{pages}{minutes}$ change 3 1/4 to a decimal

$\frac{3.25}{8} = \frac{x}{24}$

$3.25(24) = 8x$

$78 = 8x$

$\frac{78}{8} = x$

$9.75 = x$

$9\frac{3}{4} =x$

working with the fraction

3 1/4 /8 = x/ 24

3 1/4 (24) = 8x

13/4 (24) = 8x

316/4 = 8x

78 = 8x

78/8 = x

9 3/4 = x
