The average of a set of data is equal to the sum of the values divided by the number of data present. So, if we have three numbers, the average would be:
let x, y and z represent the three numbers
average = x + y + z / 3 = 45
Two number are equal in value, so let x = y. Substituting the value to the expression of average,
45 = x + x + z / 3
45 = 2x + z / 3
It said that the last number is 89 so z is equal to 89.
45 = 2x + 89 / 3
135 = 2x + 89
46 = 2x
x = 23
Therefore, the two numbers are both 23.
Basically, ur just solving for y
6x + 4y = 8...subtract 6x from both sides
4y = -6x + 8....now divide both sides by 4
y = (-6/4)x + 8/4...reduce
y = -3/2x + 2 <=== slope intercept form
Let's work on Sections. The top rectangle has an area of 54 (6x9) the base rectangle has an area of 360 ((9+6+9+5)×12) and the bottom rectangle has an area of 54 (9×6) now we add and we get 468. thus the answer is C.
x^2 = 16/100
We must solve for x by taking the square root of both sides.
But imagine x^2 = 9. x = 3 is a solution because 3^2 = 9. But x = -3 is also a solution because (-3)^2 = 9. So we need to add the plus and minus sign to account for all of our solutions.
√x^2 = √(16/100)
We square root both sides to remove the exponent 2 on x. Then
x = ±√(16/100)
Then we have to use a Property of Radicals which is √(x/y) = √(x) / √(y).
Then the square root of 16 is 4 and the square root of 100 is 10. 4/10 is 2/5 simplified.
