Answer:
So I believe the question is asking what number divided by 4 is equal to -8.
This is the same as saying 4 times -8 equals what
x=4 times -8
x= -32
The answer is -32.
At approximately 4.5 hours.
15.75x + 70 = 13.25x + 81
15.75x - 13.25x = 81 - 70
2.5x = 11
x = 4.4
found to the nearest tenth 4.5
Answer: The mean increases by 3
-----------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------
The original data set is
{50, 76, 78, 79, 79, 80, 81, 82, 82, 83}
The outlier is 50 because it is not near the group of values from 76 to 83 which is where the main cluster is.
The original mean is M = (50+76+78+79+79+80+81+82+82+83)/10 = 77
If we take out the outlier 50, the new mean is N = (76+78+79+79+80+81+82+82+83)/9 = 80
So in summary so far
old mean = M = 77
new mean = N = 80
The difference in values is N-M = 80-77 = 3
So that's why the mean increases by 3
Let us assume number of n.
The number is decreased by 15.
Decreasing by 15 means, we need to subtract 15 from that number.
So, it would be come n-15.
Now, it is said that the number would become less than 2.
So, we need to setup an inequality:
n-15 is less than 2.
<h3>n-15 < 2 : required inequality .</h3>
Adding 15 on both sides, we get
n-15+15 < 2+15
n < 17.
<h3>So, we could say the number would be less than 17.</h3>
