-6p < 12 Divide -6 on both sides to get "p" by itself
p > -2
When you divide or multiply a negative number to both sides of the inequality, the sign (< , > , ≤ , ≥) is flipped.
Answer:
What percentage of gold is in the new alloy after the recasting? 4
Step-by-step explanation:
(80/5)*(1/5)/80=0.04
So let's say he was earring x before his raise. That means that:
x times 1.09 = 654 (1.09 represents 100% (this is the 1.0) of his original salary plus 9% (this is the .09) his raise.
So,
1.09x = 654; now divide both sides by 1.09 to isolate and solve for x, and you get x = $600.
The <u>correct answers</u> are:
16) Mean = 10.25; Median = 10; Range = 17
17) The range.
18) 10
19) 5+5+6+6+7+8+8+8+9+9+10+10+10+10+10+11+12+12+12+13+13+15+15+22 = 246.
Explanation:
16) To find the <u>mean</u>, we first find the sum of the data values in the set:
5+5+6+6+7+8+8+8+9+9+10+10+10+10+10+11+12+12+12+13+13+15+15+22 = 246.
Next we divide this sum by the number of data points, 24:
246/24 = 10.25.
The <u>median</u> is the middle point of a data set. Since there are 24 points, this will be between two values. These two values are 10 and 10; the median is 10.
The <u>range </u>is found by subtracting the highest and lowest values:
22-5 = 17.
17) The <u>mean </u>is changed; the sum of the data values is 246. Taking 22 out of this, the sum is now 223, and we have 23 data points instead of 24; 223/23 = 9.7 for the new mean.
The <u>median </u>does not change; it is still 10.
The <u>range</u> changes; the highest value is now 15, and the lowest is 5: 15-5=10. The range is changed the most.
18) The <u>mean is affected</u> by the outlier and the <u>median is not</u>, so we use the <u>median</u>. This means the answer is 10.
19) The expression for the total number of cars sold is found by adding together all of the points.
One third is the written form.
Also, just a bit of extra information! The decimal of 1/3 is 0.33(recurring)
