80 degrees because it decreases by a half each time so by the time it is E (the fourth letter) it has gotten to 20 so the answer is 160
862,840 is rounded to 900,000
Answer:
66
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula for the mean of a set of numbers:
sum of the numbers
average = --------------------------------
count of numbers
Here we know that the average mark was 68, so we can write:
75 + 62 + 84 + 53 + x
average = 68 = ----------------------------------
5
or 274 + x
68 = -------------------
5
Solving for x, we multiply both sides by 5: 340 = 274 + x.
Subtracting 274 from both sides effectively isolates x:
340 = 274 + x
- 274 -274
------------------------
66 = x
The fifth student's mark was 66.
