Mean = (total of contributors) / (number of contributors)
For the 6 people in the room, you have
40 = (total of contributors) / 6
(total of contributors) = 6*40 = 240
A 60-year-old left the room, decreasing the total of contributors by 60.
(new total of contributors) = (total of contributors) - 60
(new total of contributors) = 240 - 60 = 180
Then the new mean is
(new mean) = (new total of contributors) / (new number of contributors)
(new mean) = 180 / 6 = 36
The mean age of the remaining 5 people is 36.
Step-by-step explanation:
in such a case the easiest approach might be using the point-slope form of a line equation :
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
with m being the slope, and (x1, y1) being a point on the line.
so, in our case that would be
y - 8 = 8(x - 4)
simplified this would be
y - 8 = 8x - 32
y = 8x - 24
FYI - this would be then the slope-intercept form (-24 would be the intercept point on the y-axis).

This is equal to:

When you add a negative number, it turns into subtraction.
First, I would change it to mixed numbers:

Now, you need to change the denominators to make sure they are the same on both fractions. I changed the first fraction's denominator to 4 so they match. You can do this by multiplying the numerator by 2:

Now, you simply subtract:
10-9=1
1/4 is your answer.
I hope this helps :)
Lets say the number is 155:
100 + 50 + 5
one hundred and fifty-five
155
idk the last one tho
there should be only 3 ways, plz double check
