To start this problem, we know that one of the three pieces that the string is cut into is 15 meters longer than the others. Subtract 15 from 42 to get 27.
Then, from there, you can cut that number (<em>divide</em>) by three to get the length of the two shorter strings. Simply add the 15 meters you didn't use yet to one of the pieces to find the longer string, and you have your lengths.

Hope this helps!

Find the mean, median, and mode 77, 92, 80, 92. Please explain how you got your answer.​
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The mean is 85.25

The medium is 86

The mode is 92

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is all the numbers added divided by the number of values.

77 + 92 + 80 + 92 divided by 4

341 divided by 4 = 85.25

The median is the middle number

92 + 80 divided by 2

172 divided by 2 = 86

The mode is the number that occurs the most which is 92.

jamal is going to borrow 14000 from his credit union to buy a used car. the APR is 7.0% and the length of the loan is 4 years. h
ELEN [110]
The formula to use here would be:

A = P(1+r)^t  where P is the principal (starting) amount, r is the rate of interest, and t is time. Knowing this, plug in your values:

A = 14,000(1+0.07)^4 once worked out, you should get $18,351.14414 < this is the total amount he would be paying at the end of 4 years. to find the interest, subtract this amount from the principal amount (14,000):

$18,5351.14414 - 14,000 = 4,351.14414 < this is the amount of interest. Round your answer. 

Answer: Jamal will pain $4,351.14 interest.
