A measure of center is a value at the center or middle of a data set. Graphically, the center can be viewed as the "balance point" of the display. Algebraically, the most common ways to find the center are with the mean, median, or mode. Mean is the average or sum of all data points divided by the number of points.

The center of a data set is a single number that we can use to stand in for the whole data set. You can usually think of it as a "typical" value. We usually use mean or median for the center. The median is often a better "typical" value if the distribution is skewed (that is, grossly asymmetrical).

The numbers are: "9" and "12" .
___________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________________
Let: "x" be the "first number" ; AND:

Let: "y" be the "second number" .
___________________________________
From the question/problem, we are given:
___________________________________
2x + 5y = 78 ; → "the first equation" ; AND:

5x − y = 33 ; → "the second equation" .
____________________________________
From "the second equation" ; which is:

" 5x − y = 33" ;

→ Add "y" to EACH side of the equation;

   5x − y + y = 33 + y ;

to get: 5x = 33 + y ;

Now, subtract: "33" from each side of the equation; to isolate "y" on one side of the equation ; and to solve for "y" (in term of "x");

5x − 33 = 33 + y − 33 ;

to get: " 5x − 33 = y " ; ↔ " y = 5x − 33 " .
_____________________________________________
Note: We choose "the second equation"; because "the second equation"; that is; "5x − y = 33" ; already has a "y" value with no "coefficient" ; & it is easier to solve for one of our numbers (variables); that is, "x" or "y"; in terms of the other one; & then substitute that value into "the first equation".
____________________________________________________
Now, let us take "the first equation" ; which is:
"  2x + 5y = 78 " ;
_______________________________________
We have our obtained value; " y = 5x − 33 " .
_______________________________________
We shall take our obtained value for "y" ; which is: "(5x− 33") ; and plug this value into the "y" value in the "first equation"; and solve for "x" ;
________________________________________________
Take the "first equation":
________________________________________________
→ " 2x + 5y = 78 " ; and write as:
________________________________________________
→ " 2x + 5(5x − 33) = 78 " ;
________________________________________________
Note the "distributive property of multiplication" :
________________________________________________
a(b + c) = ab + ac ; AND:

a(b − c) = ab − ac .
________________________________________________
So; using the "distributive property of multiplication:

→ +5(5x − 33) = (5*5x) − (5*33) = +25x − 165 .
___________________________________________________
So we can rewrite our equation:

→ " 2x + 5(5x − 33) = 78 " ;

by substituting the: "+ 5(5x − 33) " ; with: "+25x − 165" ; as follows:
_____________________________________________________

  → " 2x + 25x − 165 = 78 " ;
_____________________________________________________
→ Now, combine the "like terms" on the "left-hand side" of the equation:

+2x + 25x = +27x ;

Note: There are no "like terms" on the "right-hand side" of the equation.
_____________________________________________________
→ Rewrite the equation as:
_____________________________________________________
→ " 27x − 165 = 78 " ;

Now, add "165" to EACH SIDE of the equation; as follows:

→ 27x − 165 + 165 = 78 + 165 ;

→ to get: 27x = 243 ;
_____________________________________________________
Now, divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "27" ; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation ; and to solve for "x" ;
_____________________________________________________
27x / 27 = 243 / 27 ;

→ to get: x = 9 ; which is "the first number" .
_____________________________________________________
Now; Let's go back to our "first equation" and "second equation" to solve for "y" (our "second number"):

2x + 5y = 78 ; (first equation);

5x − y = 33 ; (second equation);
______________________________
Start with our "second equation"; to solve for "y"; plug in "9" for "x" ;

→ 5(9) − y = 33 ;

45 − y = 33;

Add "y" to each side of the equation:

45 − y + y = 33 + y ; to get:

45 = 33 + y ;

↔ y + 33 = 45 ; Subtract "33" from each side of the equation; to isolate "y" on one side of the equation ; & to solve for "y" ;

→ y + 33 − 33 = 45 − 33 ;

to get: y = 12 ;

So; x = 9 ; and y = 12 . The numbers are: "9" and "12" .
____________________________________________
To check our work:
_______________________
1) Let us plug these values into the original "second equation" ; to see if the equation holds true (with "x = 9" ; and "y = 12") ;

→ 5x − y = 33 ; → 5(9) − 12 =? 33 ?? ; → 45 − 12 =? 33 ?? ; Yes!
________________________
2) Let us plug these values into the original "second equation" ; to see if the equation holds true (with "x = 9" ; and "y = 12") ;

→ 2x + 5y = 78 ; → 2(9) + 5(12) =? 78?? ; → 18 + 60 =? 78?? ; Yes!
_____________________________________
So, these answers do make sense!

Exact volume: Approximate volume:

slamgirl [31]

Answer: Multiplying these factors gives the approximate volume of the original body

Step-by-step explanation:

The given convex body can be approximated by a sequence of nested bodies, eventually reaching one of known volume (a hypersphere), with this approach used to estimate the factor by which the volume changes at each step of this sequence.
