one-third of a number x is equal to 22 less than the number. Write and solve an equation to find the number.

The scores on a test for a sample of 42 statistics students are summarized in the following table. 9, 90, 18, 80, 15, 70. Find t

<h3>Answer: 78.6</h3>

Work Shown:

$\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2}\text{Number of People} & \text{Score}\\\cline{1-2}9 & 90\\\cline{1-2}18 & 80\\\cline{1-2}15 & 70\\\cline{1-2}\end{array}$

Multiply across the rows to form a third column. Example: 9*90 = 810 in the first row.

$\begin{array}{|c|c|c|} \cline{1-3}\text{Number of People} & \text{Score} & \text{Number*Score}\\\cline{1-3}9 & 90 & 810\\\cline{1-3}18 & 80 & 1440\\\cline{1-3}15 & 70 & 1050\\\cline{1-3}\end{array}$

The values in the third column add to 810+1440+1050 = 3300

Divide this over the total number of people which is 9+18+15 = 42

The mean is 3300/42 =78.571 approximately which rounds to 78.6

_____________________________________________________
Part A) " (3x + 4) " units .
_____________________________________________________
Part B) "The dimensions of the rectangle are:

" (4x + 5y) " units ; AND: " (4x − 5y)" units."
_____________________________________________________

Explanation for Part A):
_____________________________________________________

Since each side length of a square is the same;

Area = Length * width = L * w ; L = w = s = s ;

in which: " s = side length" ;

So, the Area of a square, "A" = L * w = s * s = s² ;

{Note: A "square" is a rectangle with 4 (four) equal sides.}.

→ Each side length, "s", of a square is equal.

Given: s² = "(9x² + 24x + 16)" square units ;

Find "s" by factoring: "(9x² + 24x + 16)" completely:

→ " 9x² + 24x + 16 ";

Factor by "breaking into groups" :

"(9x² + 24x + 16)" =

 → "(9x² + 12x) (12x + 16)" ;
_______________________________________________________

Given: " (9x² + 24x + 16) " ;
_______________________________________________________
Let us start with the term:
_______________________________________________________

" (9x² + 12x) " ;

 → Factor out a "3x" ; → as follows:
_______________________________________

 → " 3x (3x + 4) " ;

Then, take the term:
_______________________________________
→ " (12x + 16) " ;

And factor out a "4" ; → as follows:
_______________________________________

→ " 4 (3x + 4) "
_______________________________________
We have:

" 9x² + 24x + 16 " ;

= " 3x (3x + 4) + 4(3x + 4) " ;
_______________________________________
Now, notice the term: "(3x + 4)" ;

We can "factor out" this term:

3x (3x + 4) + 4(3x + 4) =

→ " (3x + 4) (3x + 4) " . → which is the fully factored form of:

" 9x² + 24x + 16 " ;
____________________________________________________
→ Or; write: " (3x + 4) (3x + 4)" ; as: " (3x + 4)² " .
____________________________________________________
→ So, "s² = 9x² + 24x + 16 " ;

Rewrite as: " s² = (3x + 4)² " .

→ Solve for the "positive value of "s" ;

→ {since the "side length of a square" cannot be a "negative" value.}.
____________________________________________________
→ Take the "positive square root of EACH SIDE of the equation;
to isolate "s" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "s" ;

→ ⁺√(s²) = ⁺√[(3x + 4)²] '

To get:

→ s = " (3x + 4)" units .
_______________________________________________________

Part A): The answer is: "(3x + 4)" units.
____________________________________________________

Explanation for Part B):
_________________________________________________________

The area, "A" of a rectangle is:

A = L * w ;

in which "A" is the "area" of the rectangle;
"L" is the "length" of the rectangle;
"w" is the "width" of the rectangle;
_______________________________________________________
Given: " A = (16x² − 25y²) square units" ;

→ We are asked to find the dimensions, "L" & "w" ;
→ by factoring the given "area" expression completely:
____________________________________________________
→ Factor: " (16x² − 25y²) square units " completely '

Note that: "16" and: "25" are both "perfect squares" ;

We can rewrite: " (16x² − 25y²) " ; as:

= " (4²x²) − (5²y²) " ; and further rewrite the expression:
________________________________________________________
Note:
________________________________________________________
" (16x²) " ; can be written as: "(4x)² " ;

↔ " (4x)² = "(4²)(x²)" = 16x² "

Note: The following property of exponents:

→ (xy)ⁿ = xⁿ yⁿ ; → As such: " 16x² = (4²x²) = (4x)² " .
_______________________________________________________
Note:
_______________________________________________________

→ " (25x²) " ; can be written as: " (5x)² " ;

↔ "( 5x)² = "(5²)(x²)" = 25x² " ;

Note: The following property of exponents:

→ (xy)ⁿ = xⁿ yⁿ ; → As such: " 25x² = (5²x²) = (5x)² " .
______________________________________________________

→ So, we can rewrite: " (16x² − 25y²) " ;

as: " (4x)² − (5y)² " ;

→ {Note: We substitute: "(4x)² " for "(16x²)" ; & "(5y)² " for "(25y²)" .} . ;
_______________________________________________________
→ We have: " (4x)² − (5y)² " ;

→ Note that we are asked to "factor completely" ;

→ Note that: " x² − y² = (x + y) (x − y) " ;

→ {This property is known as the "difference of squares".}.

→ As such: " (4x)² − (5y)² " = " (4x + 5y) (4x − 5y) " .
_______________________________________________________
Part B): The answer is: "The dimensions of the rectangle are:

" (4x + 5y) " units ; AND: " (4x − 5y)" units."
