Answer: A. 85.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Two sections of a class took the same quiz.

Section A had 15 students who had a mean score of 80, and Section B had 20 students who had a mean score of 90.

We know that  , \text{Mean}=\dfrac{\text{Sum of observations}}{\text{No. of observations}}

Then , for section A :

\text{Mean score }=\dfrac{\text{Sum of scores in sec A}}{\text{No. of students}}

\Rightarrow\ 80=\dfrac{\text{Sum of scores in sec A}}{15}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Sum of scores in sec A}=80\times15=1200

Similarly in Section B, \text{Sum of scores in sec B}=90\times20=1800

Total scores = Sum of scores in sec A+Sum of scores in sec B

=1200+1800=3000

Total students = Students in sec A +Students in sec B

=15+20=35

Now , the mean score for all of the students on the quiz =\dfrac{\text{Total score}}{\text{Total students}}

=\dfrac{3000}{35}=85.7142857143\approx85.7

Hence, the approximate mean score for all of the students on the quiz = 85.7

Thus , the correct answer is option A. 85.7.

what is the area of the shaded sector of the circle if the radius is 14 ft? leave your answer in terms of pi
Strike441 [17]

Given:

Radius = 14 ft

θ = 45°

To find:

Area of the shaded sector

Solution:

Area of the sector formula:

$\text { area of sector }=\frac{\theta}{360^{\circ}} \times \pi r^{2}

                      $=\frac{45^\circ}{360^{\circ}} \times \pi \times 14^{2}

                      $=\frac{1}{8} \times \pi \times 196

                      =24.5\pi ft²

The area of the shaded sector of a circle is 24.5π ft².
