<h3>Answer: 120</h3>

=============================================

Explanation:

S = sum of the first four values

S/4 = 70 since we divide the sum by 4 to get the mean of the first four values

S = 280 is the result after multiplying both sides by 4

Let x be the fifth unknown value. Adding it onto S leads to S+x = 280+x. This represents the sum of all five values.

Dividing that sum 280+x over 5 leads to the new mean 80, which leads to...

----------

(280+x)/5 = 80

280+x = 5*80

x+280 = 400

x = 400-280

x = 120

The fifth number is 120

Approximately how many degrees are in the measure of an interior angle of a regular seven sided polygon
kramer
The interior angle of a regular polygon is equal to each other since all sides of the polygon are congruent. The formula that expresses the relation of the sides of the polygon and the measurement of the interior angle is (n2)*180/n where n is 7. Each interior angle then measures 128.6 degrees.

A system of equations and its solution are given below.
Fittoniya [83]
Answer: Option <span>C. To get system B, the second equation in system A was replaced by the sum of that equation and the first equation multiplied by -3. The solution to system B will be the same as the solution to system A.

First equation of system A multiplied by -3:
(-3)(x+6y=5)
(-3)(x)+(-3)(6)=(-3)(5)
-3x-18=-15

Sum of the second equation of system A and the first equation multiplied by -3:
(-3x-18)+(3x-7y)=(-15)+(-35)
-3x-18+3x-7y=-15-35
-25y=-50

System B
x+6y=5
-25y=-50 </span>

Two number cubes are rolled. What is the probability of rolling a sum of 9 or a sum that is even?
Murljashka [212]

Well I don't know !
Let's figure it out together.

Each cube can land in 6 different ways, so the total number
of possible results with two cubes is (6 x 6) = 36 .

Now we need to figure out how many of those 36 possibilities
meet your specifications ... either 9 or any even number.

Ways to make 9 :

3 . . . 6
6 . . . 3
4 . . . 5
5 . . . 4

Four ways to make 9.
____________________________

Ways to make an even number:

1 . . . 1
3 . . . 1
1 . . . 3
2 . . . 2
5 . . . 1
1 . . . 5
6 . . . 2
2 . . . 6
6 . . . 4
4 . . . 6
6 . . . 6

Eleven ways to make an even number.
_____________________

Total number of ways to succeed = (4 + 11) = 15 ways

So the probability of succeeding (rolling 9 or an even number)
is

               15 / 36  =  5 / 12  =  0.41666... =  (41 and 2/3) % .
