The height of the blue spruce was 45.
We find the mean by adding all of the data points and dividing by the number of data points. We will add the unknown value x and change the number we're dividing by to 7:
(160+320+100+110+200+220+x)/7 = 165
(1110+x)/7 = 165
Multiply both sides by 7:
1110 + x = 1155
Subtract 1110 from both sides:
x = 45
We solve the as follows:
<span>1. Solve proportion 12/15 = 18/b
</span>( 12/15 = 18/b ) b<span>
( 12b/15 = 18 ) 15/12
b = 18(15/12)
b = 45/2
2. Solve equations
A. -x + 4 = x +6
</span>-x + 4 - x = x +6 - x
<span>-2x + 4 - 4 = 6 - 4
-2x = 2
x = -1
B. 5n + 7 =7(n+1) -2n
5n + 7 = 7n + 7 - 2n
5n -7n + 2n = 7 - 7
0 = 0
C. -4(p+2) + 8 = 2(p-1) - 7p + 15
-4p - 8 + 8 = 2p - 2 - 7p + 15
-4p + 7p - 2p = -2 + 15 + 8 - 8
p =13
3. Solve a/b x - c = 0 for x
</span>a/b x - c = 0
( a/b x = c ) b/a
x = bc / a
I would have to say
Maria is 21
Jose 9
If Maria was 12 and Jose wasn’t born yet look at their ages in nine years.
Hope this helped.
