Answer:

66

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for the mean of a set of numbers:

                  sum of the numbers

average = --------------------------------

                     count of numbers

Here we know that the average mark was 68, so we can write:

               

                           75 + 62 + 84 + 53 + x

average = 68 = ----------------------------------

                                           5

or                            274 + x

                  68 = -------------------

                                    5

Solving for x, we multiply both sides by 5:     340 = 274 + x.

Subtracting 274 from both sides effectively isolates x:

 340 = 274 + x

- 274    -274

------------------------

  66      =    x

The fifth student's mark was 66.

Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and contains the given point. y=4/3x-7; (7,2)
nalin [4]

Answer:

y = (4/3)x - (22/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

If it's parellel than they have the same slope.

m = 4/3

y = mx + b

y = (4/3)x + b

2 = (4/3)(7) + b

(6/3) = (28/3) + b

-(28/3) -(28/3)

(-22/3) = b

Schach [20]

Answer:

m<3 is 149 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

<1 and <2 are the same so x equal 4 and when you plug 4 into the equation the answer is 31 and a line equals 180 degrees so 180 - 31 is 149 so m<3 is 149 degrees.

How do you solve 7.5=x+3/2
labwork [276]
7.5 = x + \frac{3}{2} equals x = 6.

First, subtract \frac{3}{2} from both sides. / Your problem should look like: 7.5 - \frac{3}{2} = x.
Second, simplify 7.5 - \frac{3}{2} to 6. / Your problem should look like: 6 = x.
Third, switch sides. / Your problem should look like x = 6, which is your answer.
