Solution:

8 = 8/1

5 3/4 = 23/4

23/4 * 8/1 = 184/4

184/4 = 46

How do you find the median of a data set when you have an even number of values?

natima [27]

Answer:

If there is an even number of numbers, the median is the average of the two numbers in the middle.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the median of any set of numbers, put them in order from smallest to greatest. If a number occurs more than once, list it more than once. The number in the middle is the median. If there is an even number of numbers, the median is the average of the two numbers in the middle. For your first example, we line them up: 3, 6, 6.

Find the value of the determinant using the method of expansion by minors; expand on the third row

valkas [14]

For the matrix

$\begin{bmatrix}{a_{11}} & {a_{12}} & {a_{13}} \\ {a_{21}} & {a_{22}} & {a_{23}} \\ {a_{31}} & {a_{32}} & {a_{33}}\end{bmatrix}$

the determinant using the method of expansion by minors, expanding on the third row is:

$\det \begin{bmatrix}{a_{11}} & {a_{12}} & {a_{13}} \\ {a_{21}} & {a_{22}} & {a_{23}} \\ {a_{31}} & {a_{32}} & {a_{33}}\end{bmatrix}=a_{31}\det \begin{bmatrix}{a_{12}} & {a_{13}} & {} \\ {a_{22}} & {a_{23}} & {} \\ {} & {} & {}\end{bmatrix}-a_{32}\det \begin{bmatrix}{a_{11}} & {a_{13}} & {} \\ {a_{21}} & {a_{23}} & {} \\ {} & {} & {}\end{bmatrix}+a_{33}\det \begin{bmatrix}{a_{12}} & {a_{12}} & {} \\ {a_{22}} & {a_{22}} & {} \\ {} & {} & {}\end{bmatrix}$

Answer:

First, we compute the determinants of the minors:

$\begin{gathered} \det \begin{bmatrix}{0} & {4} & {} \\ {-1} & {3} & {} \\ {} & {} & {}\end{bmatrix}=0+4=4, \\ \det \begin{bmatrix}{1} & {4} & {} \\ {1} & {3} & {} \\ {} & {} & {}\end{bmatrix}=3-4=-1, \\ \det \begin{bmatrix}{1} & {0} & {} \\ {1} & {-1} & {} \\ {} & {} & {}\end{bmatrix}=-1-0=-1. \end{gathered}$

Therefore:

$\det \begin{bmatrix}{1} & {0} & {4} \\ {1} & {-1} & {3} \\ {0} & {5} & {-2}\end{bmatrix}=0\times4-5\times(-1)+(-2)\times(-1)=5+2=7.$

Solve for x: x^2 + 14x + 49

Kaylis [27]

Answer: -7twice

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a question on root of quadratic equation. The interpretation of the question

x² 14x + 49 is

x² + 14x + 49 = 0.meaning that we are to find two possible values for x that will make the expression equal 0.

We can use any of the methods earlier taught. For the purpose of this class, I am using factorization methods

x² + 14x + 49 = 0

Now, find the product of the first and the last terms, is

x² × 49 = 49×²

Now find two terms such that their productbis 49x² and their sum equals 14x, the one in the middle.

We have several factors of 49x² but only one will give sum of 14x. Because of the time, I will only go straight to the required factors .

49x² = 7x × 7x and the sum gives 14x the middle terms..

Now we now replace the middle one by the factors and then factorize by grouping.

x² + 14x + 49 = 0

x² + 7x + 7x + 49 = 0

x(x + 7) + 7(x + 7) = 0

(x + 7)(x + 7). = 0

Now to find this value of x,

x + 7 = 0

x. = -7twice.

The root of the equation = -7twice.

Mark is making a decoration for a rally, using a string of triangular strips. Each strip is an isosceles triangle when flattened

jeyben [28]

Solution:

Consider the Given Isosceles Triangle

Considering the Possibilities

Case 1. When two equal angles are of 70°

Let the third angle be x.

Keeping in mind , that sum of Interior angles of Triangle is 180°.

70° + 70° + x= 180°

140° +x= 180°

x= 180°- 140°

x= 40°

Case 2:

When an angle measures 70°, and two equal angles measure x°.

Keeping the same property of triangle in mind, that is sum of interior angles of triangle is 180°.

70° + x° + x° = 180°

⇒ 70° + 2 x° = 180°

⇒ 2 x° = 180° - 70°

⇒ 2 x° = 110°

Dividing both sides by 2, we get

x= 55°
