The average of 8 scores is Q. If the average of 3 of the scores is Z, what is the average of the other 5 scores?

1 answer:

7 0

$\dfrac{s_1+\cdots+s_8}{8}=Q\implies s_1+\cdots+s_8=8Q$
$\dfrac{s_1+s_2+s_3}{3}=Z\implies s_1+s_2+s_3=3Z$

Substituting into the first equation, this means

$s_4+\cdots+s_8=8Q-3Z$

Divide by 5 to get the average:

$\dfrac{s_4+\cdots+s_8}{5}=\dfrac{8Q-3Z}5$

anastassius [24]

Answer:

(a) 7.6%

(b) 46.2% 42.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)According to the definition of Continuous probability distribution

$f(x) = \frac{d}{dx}F(x)$

$f(x) = \frac{F(x + h) - F(x - h)}{(x + h) - (x - h)}$

$f(69) = \frac{F(69 + 0.2) - F(69 - 0.2)}{0.4}$

⇒ 0.19 × 0.4 = F(69.2) - F(68.8)

⇒ F(69.2) - F(68.8) = 0.076

⇒ 7.6%

(b) Given F(69) = 0.5

$f(x) = \frac{d}{dx}F(x)$

$f(x) = \frac{F(x) - F(x - h)}{x - (x - h)}$

$f(69) = \frac{F(69) - F(69 - 0.2)}{0.2}$

⇒ 0.19 × 0.2 = F(69) - F(68.8)

⇒ F(68.8) = 0.5 - 0.038 = 0.462

⇒ 46.2%

$f(x) = \frac{d}{dx}F(x)$

$f(x) = \frac{F(x) - F(x - h)}{x - (x - h)}$

$f(69) = \frac{F(69) - F(69 - 0.4)}{0.4}$

⇒ 0.19 × 0.4 = F(69) - F(68.8)

⇒ F(68.8) = 0.5 - 0.076 = 0.424

⇒ 42.4%

What is the value of x?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.<br><br> x =

Nikitich [7]

You are given that all three sides are equal. You also know that all three angles are also equal. Therefore since all three angles are equal and every triangle has 180 degrees, each angle is 180/3 = 60

7x - 3 = 60 Add three to both sides

7x - 3 + 3 = 60 + 3 Combine

7x = 63 Divide by 7

7x/7 = 63/7

x = 9 And that's your answer.
