Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
he is benifeting from both
1. 1/9 since you take all the "a"s in the words which is 2/18
2.2/9 same thing as above
3.18/18 since there is no "O" it's a trick question
4.3/9
5.5/6 since you don't count 6
6.1/2 and 1/2 coins are always 1/2 unless you flip twice
7.5/13
8.1/2 because 1,3,5 odd 2,4,6 even
Hope that helps
<u>We are given:</u>
An even number 'n', multiplied by the next consecutive even number is 168
<u>Solving for n:</u>
From the given statement, we can say that:
n(n+2) = 168 [<em>n multiplied by the next even number 'n+2'</em>]
n² + 2n = 168
n² + 2n - 168 = 0 [<em>subtracting 168 from both sides</em>]
We can see that we now have a quadratic equation, solving using splitting the middle term
n² + 14n - 12n - 168 = 0
n(n + 14) -12(n + 14) = 0 <em>[factoring out common terms</em>]
(n-12)(n+14) = 0
Here, we can divide both sides by either (n-12) OR (n+14)
Checking the result in both the cases:
(n + 14) = 0/(n-12) (n-12) = 0/(n+14)
n + 14 = 0 n - 12 = 0
n = -14 n = 12
Both these values are even and since we are not told if the number 'n' is positive or negative, both 12 and -14 are the possible values of n
Answer: 25
Step-by-step explanation: The median is the average of the middle two numbers and if the median will be 17.5 then the sum of the middle numbers will be 35, and when we arrange the numbers in the least to greatest order we realize that 10 will be one of the middle two numbers when a number is added, and so the other number must be 25. Hope this helped!
