X + y = 16 (1)
x/y = 3 (2)
-------
x + y = 16
x = 16 - y
1. Substitute x into equation 2
16-y/y = 3
16 - y = 3y
16 = 4y
y = 4
2. Now substitute y into equation 1
x/y = 3
x/4 = 2
x = 12
Therefore, x = 12, y = 4
The 3 values would be 9 , 10 and 11.
because:
48<6(9)
48<54
48<6(10)
48<60
48<6(11)
48<66
In positively skewed distributions, the mean is usually greater than the median, which is always greater than the mode
-|2x+3| > 2 and <span>-|2x+3| > - 2
</span>-2x+3 > 2
-2x > 2 - 3
-2x > -1
-2x / -2 > -1 / -2
x < 1/ 2
-|2x+3| > - 2
x < 5/2
