Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram showing the three pieces of paper of three digit in which two of the letters were covered can be seen below.

From the diagram; we have;

243 , 1_7 , _26

Assuming the covered digits are _

The sum is 826.

i.e

243 + 1_7 + _26 = 826

The objective is to determine the sum of the two unknown digits

So; we need to think about what number can we add put in 1_7 to determine the covered digit in  _26

From ; 1_7 , we have the choice to pick from 0 - 9

Assuming the covered digit is 0; let's check if we are right

So; 243 + 1<u>0</u>7  +  _26 = 826

350 +   _26 = 826

_26 = 826 - 350

_26 = 476

So; the covered digit is in the position of 4 , but it doesn't tally together

i.e 426 is not the same as 476, which makes our assumption to be wrong.

Let consider the covered digit to be 5 for example.

So; 243 + 1<u>5</u>7  +  _26 = 826

400 +   _26 = 826

_26 = 826 - 400

_26 =  426

The covered digit is in the position of 4

SO;

<u>4</u>26 = 426

Here , our assumption is right.

As such , the covered digits are 5 and 4

The sum of the two  covered digits are = 5 + 4 = 9

Answer:

a. 104

b. 102, 104, and 105

Step-by-step explanation:

a. There are 13 data points plotted on the dot line. The median lies between the 6th and 7th data point.

Thus, on the dot line, the 6th and 7th data points both fall on 104.

Therefore, median = 104

b. The dot plot shows the high temperatures that occurred more than one day are:

102, 104, and 105

Find the values of x and y if 5 ˣ⁻³ x 3²ʸ⁻⁸ =225
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

x = 5, y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

{5}^{x - 3}  \times  {3}^{2y - 8}  = 225 \\ {5}^{x - 3}  \times  {3}^{2y - 8}  = 25 \times 9 \\  {5}^{x - 3}  \times  {3}^{2y - 8}  =  {5}^{2} \times  {3}^{2}  \\ equating \: like \: power \: terms \: from \: both \:\\ sides \\ {5}^{x - 3}  =  {5}^{2} \\ x - 3 = 2 (Bases\: are\: equal, \: so\: exponents \: \\will\: also\: be\: equal) \\ x = 3 + 2 \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ x = 5}} \\  \\ {3}^{2y - 8}  = {3}^{2} \\ 2y - 8 = 2(Bases\: are\: equal, \: so\: exponents \: \\will\: also\: be\: equal)  \\ 2y = 2 + 8 \\ 2y = 10 \\ y =  \frac{10}{2}  \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{y = 5}}
