6 0

Answer:

Let the smaller number be x

Then the sum is

(6 + 2x) + x = 27

We now find for x

2x + x + 6 = 27

3x + 6 = 27

3x = 27-6

3x = 21

x = 21/3

x = 7

Therefore the smaller number is 7

The larger number is (2×7) + 6 = 20

Find the equation of the line that contains the given point and has the given slope-
mylen [45]

Answer:

y-5 = -3x

or

y = -3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the point slope form of the equation

y-y1 = m(x-x1)  where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line

y-5 = -3(x-0)

y-5 = -3x

We can change it to slope intercept form y= mx+b by adding 5 to each side

y-5+5 = -3x+5

y = -3x+5

For which data representation is the median the better measure of center
arlik [135]
Answer: The second graph

In all but the 3 graphs, the data is perfectly symmetrical. This means that the mean and the median would be the same.

However, in the second graph the data is skewed to the right. This means that the mean would also be skewed to the right due to the larger scores there. Using the median in this case would give a clearer picture of the data.

Use the relationship between the angles in the figure to answer the question.
Brut [27]

Answer:

​x + 49 + 28 = 180​

Step-by-step explanation:

​The angles on a straight line with x° are 28° and 49° respectively, side by side with x°. This is because, vertical angles are equal. Therefore, the angle vertically opposite 28° and 49° are equal to 28° and 49° respectively.

Therefore, since angles on a straight line is 180°, thus:

​x + 49 + 28 = 180​
