To calculate the mean of two numbers you add them together and divide the sum by 2.
We can set up an equation for this problem: (x+55)/2 = 67

Now we need so solve for x: (x+55) = 67x2
x+55 = 134
x = 134-55
x = 79

Hope this helps, and May the Force Be With You!

If (55 + x)/2 is to be 67, then 55+x = 2*67, so x = 2*67 - 55 = 79

If 4x-3<32, Which of the following are solutions: 26/3, 9.1, 20, or -6?

ValentinkaMS [17]

The answer is :
$4x - 3 < 32 \\ 4 x < 32 + 3 \\ 4 x < 35 \\ x < \frac{35}{4} \\$
$x < 8.75$
and the only number among the choices that is less than 8.75 is -6
hope it's true

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A, B and D are all only a few digits long and can be expressed as the ratio of two integers, where at least one is even:

A = -6/16 = -3/8, so it's rational

B = 7.0398 = 35199/5000, so it's rational

D = 6,907 = 13814/2, therefore rational

C, on the other hand is irrational.

If we simplify the surd √8, we get 2√2. The 2's on the top and bottom can now cancel out, giving us √2, which is irrational. [There's a proof but it's kinda long].

A boat sails 20 miles wast of the port and then 15 miles south to an island how far is the boat from the port if you measure thr

Answer:

25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A boat sail 20 miles west of the port and then 15 miles south to an island.

Picture attached.

The distance from port to island could be measured in a straight line. It will form a hypotenous.

∴ we can use Pythogorean theorem to find the distance.

$h^{2} = a^{2} +b^{2}$
