The mean score on a set of 17 test is 72. Suppose two more students take the test and score 68 and 63. What is the new mean?

Mathematics

Masja [62]3 years ago

Answer:

New mean=71.32

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression for the total initial score is;

T=M×S

where;

T=total initial score

M=mean score

S=number in the set

replacing;

T=unknown

M=72

S=17

replacing;

T=72×17=1,224

The total initial score=1,224

Determine the total score by;

total score=total initial score+total final score

where;

total initial score=1,224

total final score=(68+63)=131

replacing;

total score=1,224+131=1,355

Determine the new mean;

New mean=total score/new number

where;

total score=1,355

new number=(17+2)=19

replacing;

new mean=1,355/19=71.32

Slope: -2/3 y-intercept: -8 find the linear equation
puteri [66]

Answer:

y = - \frac{2}{3} x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

here m = - \frac{2}{3} and c = - 8, hence

y = - \frac{2}{3} x - 8 ← linear equation

How do you simplify 3 1/4 x 3/5 someone please help me
kifflom [539]

Answer:

We want to simplify:

(3 + 1/4)*(3/5)

The first step is to write the first term as a single rational number.

We know that:

3*1 = 3

and 4/4 = 1

then:

3*1 = 3*(4/4) = (3*4)/4 = 12/4

We do this because we want to have the same denominator in both numbers, so we can directly add them.

Then we get:

(3 + 1/4)*(3/5) = (12/4 + 1/4)*(3/5) = (13/4)*(3/5)

And remember that in the multiplication of rational numbers the numerator are multiplied together and the same for the denominators, then we get:

(13/4)*(3/5) =  (13*3)/(4*5)

If we solve the multiplications we get:

(13*3)/(4*5) = (39/20)

Now, we can notice that in the numerator we have two prime numbers, 13 and 3.

And in the denominators, we have a 4 (which is equal to 2*2) and a 5.

So the prime numbers in the numerator and the denominator are all different, this means that we can not simplify it furthermore.

Then we have:

(3 + 1/4)*(3/5) = (39/20)

19. When baking a cake, you have a choice of the following pans:
dimaraw [331]

The answer is

round cake - 82.42 in²

rectangular cake - 114 in²

Round cake:

d = 7 in

r = d/2 = 7 in / 2 = 3.5 in

h = 2 in

The surface are of a cylinder is:

A = 2πr² + 2πrh

The surface are of the round cake (which is actually a cylindrical cake) excluding the bottom is:

A = 2πr² + 2πrh - πr²

A = πr² + 2πrh

A = 3.14 * 3.5² + 2 * 3.14 * 3.5 * 2

= 38.46 + 43.96

= 82.42 in²

Rectangular cake:

w = 6 in

l = 9 in

h = 2 in

The surface are of a rectangle is:

A = 2wl + 2wh + 2lh

The surface are of the rectangular cake excluding the bottom is:

A = 2wl + 2wh + 2lh - wl

A = wl + 2wh + 2lh

A = 6 * 9 + 2 * 6 * 2 + 2 * 9 * 2

= 54 + 24 + 36

= 114 in²

Step-by-step explanation: This answer is not mine but JcAlmighty’s so all credits go to them.

HELPPPP (x-y)^3-(y-x)^2
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

(x-y)(x-y)(x-y)= x²-yx+x²-yx-yx+y²-yx+y²

2x²-4yx+2y²

(y-x)(y-x)= y²-yx-yx+x²

y²-2yx+x²

-(y²-2yx+x²) = -y²+2yx-x²

2x²-4yx+2y²-y²+2yx-x²= x²-2yx+y²

or

(x−y−1)(x−y)² ≡ x³−x²+3xy²+2xy−y³−y²−3yx³
