Answer:
$7
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount max keeps for spending = 1/2(total allowance - amount he spends on snacks)
total allowance = $17
amount he spends on snacks = $3
Amount he would have for his college fund and spending money. = $17 - $3 = $14
Since he splits the amount equally between his college fund and spending money, the amount he would have for spending can be determined by dividing 14 by 2
$14/2 = $7
Answer:
Hi there!
The answer to this question is x=4.
Step-by-step explanation:
you first want to get all the x's on one side, in order to do that you add six on both sides to get 4x+2x=24
next you add 4x to 2x because they both end in the variable 'x' to get 6x
then you divide 6 on both sides to single out 'x' and you get 4
6p=13.50
there are 6 notebooks and it costs $13.50 altogether. P represents the cost of one notebook, therefore the equation would be 6p=13.5. It can be rearranged to p=13.5/6
Alright, since there are 5 numbers, and the mean (or average) is (sum)/(amount of numbers), we have (sum)/5=14. Multiplying both sides by 5, we have the sum being 80. The median of 10 means that in a, b, c, d, e, 10 has to be c and the numbers have to be in ascending order. A and b must be 10 or lower, while d and e must be 10 or higher. Putting some random numbers in, we can have 1, 1, 10, 15, and e. We left e there because the sum needs to be 80, and since 1+1+10+15=27, 80-27=53=e. This, however, would not work if e was less than 10 and we therefore would have needed to make some numbers lower to compensate for this. Our answer is therefore 1, 1, 10, 15, 53
