Let price of one scarf be $x
Price of the other is 3 more than $x
Therefore price of the other scarf =$x +3
The total price she paid = $25.00
That is, x+x+3=25
2x+3=25
2x=25-3
2x=22
x=22/2
x=11
The price of one scarf is $11 and the price of the other is 11+3=$14
The price of the expensive scarf =$14.
85 x 3 = 255
first 2 test grades were 81 and 86:
81 + 86 = 167
Need to find the 3rd to have exact average 85:
255 - 167 = 88
So her 3rd test needs to make 88 to make average of 85
Double check: 81 + 86 + 88 = 255 = 85 + 85 + 85
Try dividing both sides by 2.
Hope i helped :)
(It's kinda cool, because by dividing both sides by 2 we get !<3u :)
Log (25¹/⁵) = (1/5) log(25) = (1/5) (1.3979) = 0.2796
