3.8,4.2,5.3,x; mean 4.8

Hello!

I would assume we are solving for x, so lets try to understand what we need to do here.

to find the mean, you add all the numbers together and divide by how many number sets there are.

so in this case: (3.8+4.2+5.3+x)/4

so what I did, was go in reverse

(4.8*4)-3.8-4.2-5.3=5.9

so x must be 5.9

I hope this helps, and have a nice day!

Vince has a rectangular rug in his room with an area of 10 ft the length of the rug is 18 inches longer than the width what coul

aev [14]

The length of the rug is 4 ft.

The width of the rug is 2.5 ft.

Explanation:

The area of the rug is 10 ft.

The length of the rug be l.

Let us convert the inches to feet.

Thus, $18 inches = 1.5 ft$

Thus, the length of the rug is $l=1.5+w$

Let the width of the rug be w.

Substituting these values in the formula of area of the rectangle, we get,

$A=length\times width$

$10=(1.5+w)(w)\\10=1.5w+w^2\\w^2+1.5w-10=0$

Solving the expression using the quadratic formula,

$w=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

Substituting the values, we have,

$$w=\frac{-15 \pm \sqrt{15^{2}-4 \cdot 10(-100)}}{2 \cdot 10}\\$

$w=\frac{-15 \pm \sqrt{4225}}{20}$

$w=\frac{-15 \pm 65}{2 0}$

Thus,

$w=\frac{-15 + 65}{2 0}\\w=\frac{50}{20} \\w=2.5$ and $w=\frac{-15 - 65}{2 0}\\w=\frac{-80}{20} \\w=-4$

Since, the value of w cannot be negative, the value of w is 2.5ft

Thus, the width of the rug is 2.5ft

Substituting $w=2.5$ in $l=1.5+w$ , we get,

$l=1.5+2.5\\l=4$

Thus, the length of the rug is 4 ft.

I can't seem to figure it out

tekilochka [14]

The slope is 2 because remember, y= mx+b
m= slope
the slope is always multiplied by x

2. Find the slope, or rate of change, represented in the table below. x -1 0 1 2 3 У -8 3 14 25 36

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is change in y over change in x. so, if x is increasing by one every time and y is increasing by 11, then the slope is 11/1, which we write as 11.
