7 0

Answer:

B. (1,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can substitute the x and y values of each coordinate into the inequality and test if they work.

Let's start with A, 5 being y and 0 being x .

$5 > |0|+5\\5> 0+5\\5 > 5$

5 IS NOT greater than 5, they are the exact same, so A is out.

Let's try B, 1 being x and 7 being y.

$7 > |1| + 5\\7 > 1 + 5\\7 > 6$

7 IS greater than 6, so B. (1,7) does work for this inequality!

Let's do C for fun, when 7 is x and 1 is y.

$1 > |7| + 5\\1>7+5\\1>12$

1 IS NOT greater than 12, it is quite less than 12, so C doesn't work.

Therefore B. (1,7) works for the inequality of $y > |x|+5$ .

Hope this helped!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of a data set is the average of the data set. It can be found by adding up all of the values and then dividing by the total number of values added. In this case, one is given the mean, and one needs to find a missing value. Since there is a missing element, add one to the total number of values in the data set. The missing element is represented by the parameter (x). Set up an equation and solve:

$\frac{(236)+(342)+(328)+(352)+(352)+(306)+(317)+(x)}{8}=325\\$
