In 4 games, Larry averaged 23 PPG (points per game). How many points does he need to score in the last game to have an average o
ivann1987 [24]
Larry needs to score 33 points in the last game to have an average of 25 PPG.

To find the answer, we can solve the equation:

\frac{(4)23+p}{5}=25

<em />(where <em>p</em> is how many points he needs to score in the last game)

To find the mean of a group of numbers, you add them all up and divide the total by the number of numbers there are. Since Larry averaged 23 PPG in 4 games, we can multiply 23 by 4 to get the total of the first 4 games from the data. Then, we find <em>p</em>, which we will add to get our final total. Then, you divide by the 5 games.

\frac{(4)23+p}{5}=25
\frac{92+p}{5}=25
{92+p}=125
p=33

First, I simplified 4 x 23 to get 92. Then, I multiplied each side by 5 to get rid of the denominator. Finally, I subtracted 92 from each side to isolate <em>p</em>, and found that <em>p</em> = 33.

Ramiro earns $20 per hour during the week and $30 per hour for overtime on the weekends. One week Ramiro earned a total of $650.
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Week=25 Hours

Weekend= 5 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

So we need to use the info they gave us and create two equations. Firstly we know how much he gets paid per hour during the week (x) and how much he gets paid on the weekend (y).

$20x+$30y=$650

We get this because we know the combined rates he is paid times the hours should add up to the amount he earned.

The next equation will be made off of the information that he worked 5 times as many hours during the week as on the weekend. This tells us that we will take the weekend hours (y) and multiply them by 5 in order to get the week hours (x).

x=5y      Now, since we have one variable by itself, we can plug it in for x in the first equation.

20(5y)+30y=650    Our first step here is to distribute the 20 to the 5y in order to eliminate the parenthesis.

100y+30y=650    Next add the like terms together (100y+30y).

Now all we have to do to find y is divide by 130 on both sides to get y alone.

130y=650  

________

130     130

y=5             Now to solve for x we just plug our y value into one of the equations above. I'm going to use the second equation.

x=5(5)

x=25

Each set had the same number of books

She reads 7 books and has 11 more to go

Therefore the number of books in each set can be calculated as follows

= 18

18/6
