Answer:

1.26 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Mr. Snow bought 90 grams of Christmas candy for each of his 14 grandchildren. We are asked to find the amount of candy bought by Mr. Snow in kilograms.

First of all, we will find the amount of candy in grams by multiplying 90 grams by 14 as:

$\text{Amount of candy bought in grams}=14\times 90$

$\text{Amount of candy bought in grams}=1260$

We know that 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams. To convert 1260 grams into kg, we will divide 1260 by 1000 as:

$\text{Amount of candy bought in kilograms}=\frac{1260}{1000}$

$\text{Amount of candy bought in kilograms}=1.26$

Therefore, Mr. Snow bought 1.26 kilograms of candy.

Help pls ;) <br> Find the geometric mean of 14 and 20

Kipish [7]

Answer:

The geometric mean of 14 and 20 is 16.73.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is required to find the geometric mean of 14 and 20. Let the numbers are :

a = 14 and b = 20

The geometric mean for two numbers is given by :

$M=\sqrt{ab}$

Plugging the values in above formula as follows :

$M=\sqrt{14\times 20}\\\\M=\sqrt{7\times 2\times 5\times 4} \\\\M=16.73$

So, the geometric mean of 14 and 20 is 16.73.

Solve the equation for<br> x 3/4(x+21) = 10.5 <br> x =

MrRa [10]

<h3>✍️ Answer:</h3><h3> $x=-\frac{294}{13}$ </h3>

✽✽✽✽

$\frac{x\cdot \:3}{4\left(x+21\right)}=10.5$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}4\left(x+21\right)$

$\frac{x\cdot \:3}{4\left(x+21\right)}\cdot \:4\left(x+21\right)=10.5\cdot \:4\left(x+21\right)$

$3x=42\left(x+21\right)$

$3x=42x+882$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}42x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$3x-42x=42x+882-42x$

$-39x=882$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-39$

$\frac{-39x}{-39}=\frac{882}{-39}$

$x=-\frac{294}{13}$

Allen wants to have a mean of 90 on his math quizzes. So far, he has scored 86, 94, 88, 95, and 89. What is the least score that

viva [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{86 + 94 + 88 + 95 + 89 + x}{6} = 90$

The mean would be the sum of all the math quiz grades divided by the number of quizzes taken.

Solve for x:

$86 + 94 + 88 + 95 + 89 + x = 540$

$452 + x = 540$

$x = 88$

Thus, Allen needs at least an 88 to obtain a mean of at least 90.
