Let x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5, x_6, x_7, x_8, x_9, x_{10}, x_{11} be the weight of i-th player.

1. If the mean weight of 4 backfield members on the football team is 221 lb, then

\dfrac{x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4}{4}=221\ lb.

2. If the mean weight of the 7 other players is 202 lb, then

\dfrac{x_5+x_6+x_7+x_8+x_9+x_{10}+x_{11}}{7}=202\ lb.

3. From the previous statements you have that

x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4=221\cdot 4=884 \lb,\\ \\x_5+x_6+x_7+x_8+x_9+x_{10}+x_{11}=202\cdot 7=1414\ lb.

Add these two equalities and then divide by 11:

x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4+x_5+x_6+x_7+x_8+x_9+x_{10}+x_{11}=884+1414=2298\ lb,\\ \\\dfrac{x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4+x_5+x_6+x_7+x_8+x_9+x_{10}+x_{11}}{11}=\dfrac{2298}{11}=208\dfrac{10}{11}\ lb.

Answer: the mean weight of the 11-person team is 208\dfrac{10}{11}\ lb.

The flower shop makes bouquets with ten flowers in each bouquet.
denis-greek [22]
I agree with with the florist because when you divide 207 by 10 you will get 20.7. This means that the florist could make 20 bouquets but seven flowers would be left out.
Hope this helps and please mark brainliest!
