If E is the midpoint, DE and EF are equivalent.
2x+4=3x-1
4=x-1
5=x
Plug the value of x in
2(5)+4
14
3(5)-1
14
14+14=28
Final answer: DE=14, EF=14, DF= 28
For b, by moving coins the mode and median changes but only the mean doesn't change.
Bought the same number of Guppies and only Hank bought 2 additional Platies. Thus, let’s subtract the total of Hank and Martha
=> 18.33 – 13. 95 = 4.38
Thus, Hank paid an additional of 4.34 for 2 platies. Let’s divide to get the price of platies
=> 4.34 / 2 = = 2.19 (price of platies each.)
Let’s solve for price of guppies
=> 13.95 – 4.34 = 9.61
=> 9.61 / 3 = 3.20 (Price of guppies each.)
