The answer is:  - 6 .
_____________________________________________

Evaluate the value INSIDE the "bars". 
  b - a  =  -2  -  4  = -6 .  The absolute value of the value inside inside the bars is the "positive" number of that value.  The value is negative 6; so, the absolute value, or "magnitude", of "-6", is "6";  Then, then "-" (6) = -6.  So the answer is: -6 .

Two sections of a class took the same quiz. Section A had 15 students who had a mean score of 80, and Section B had 20 students
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

85.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that two sections of a class took the same quiz. Section A had 15 students who had a mean score of 80, and Section B had 20 students who had a mean score of 90.

Section A total score = 15*80=1200

Section B total score 20*90 = 1800

Overall total score=3000

Overall total students = 15+20 =35

Hence overall mean = \frac{3000}{35} \\=85.7143

rounding off to one decimal place

overall mean = 85.7
