The mean and median can be calculated for quantitative data only.
Multiply the values then either divide by 2 or multiply by 2
We can solve this by substitution method.
Look at the second equation. If we rearrange to find 7x, we can substitute in the value into the first equation.



Therefore, 
Now replace the 7x in the first equation with 5y - 12:
(substitute in 7x = 5y - 12)




Now that we know y, we can find x by substituting in y = 1 into any equation we want. I will use the equation: 7x = 5y - 12
(substitute in y = 1)

Theophilus had a bag of toffees that he wanted share with all of his best friends.
Because Theophilus had a huge number of best friends, and because he was
concerned for their dental dental health, he began by cutting each toffee into
smaller pieces before passing them out.
He began with 6 toffees in the bag. Each toffee was 3-inches long, and he cut
each piece into 1-inch pieces.
To how many friends was he then ready to hand a chunk of toffee ?
