First, square both sides (d.) leaving 3x + 1 = 16
Second, subtract 1 from both sides (a.) leaving 3x = 15
Third, divide by 3 from both sides (e.) leaving x = 5
Answer: First D, then A, then E
Answer:
Sandra need to score at least <u>56%</u> in her fifth test so that her average is 80%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
First 4 test scores = 87%, 92%, 76%,89%
Average targeted = 80%
We need to find the minimum score she needs to make on fifth test to achieve average of at least 80%.
Solution:
Let the minimum score she needs to make in fifth test be 'x'.
Total number of test = 5
Now we know that;
Average is equal to sum of all the scores in the test divided by number of test.
framing in equation form we get;
Multiplying both side by 5 we get;
Subtracting both side by 344 we get;
Hence Sandra need to score at least <u>56%</u> in her fifth test so that her average is 80%.
I think its ether 2 5/2 or 2 3/2

The answer is 12. You find this by counting all of the numbers to the right of the line (referred to as "leaves" in this stem-and-leaf plot)
Answer:
The final depth of Melissa is 14 meters below the surface
Step-by-step explanation:
In this kind of problems, involving directions, etc, usually one position is the positive direction and the other position is the negative direction.
In our problem, we suppose that the surface is the positivo zero, above the surface is the positive position(positive depth) and below the surface is the negative directions(negative depth).
The problem states that Melissa is 29 meters below the surface. So, her initial position is 29 meters in the negative direction, so it is equal to -29.
Then, the problem states that Melissa rises upward 15 meters. Upward is the positive direction, so she moved to the positive direction. It means that we are going to do -29+15 = -14 meters.
It means that the final depth of Melissa is 14 meters below the surface
