Answer:

14.6

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The average weight of the top 5 fish caught at a fishing tournament was 12.3 pounds. From the attached figure, the weight of 5 fish are given. We need to find the weight of Wayne S. fish.

Average = sum of terms/no of terms

Let the weight of Wayne S. is x. So,

Here the sum of terms is x+12.8+12.6+11.8+9.7 and the number of terms is 5.

12.3=\dfrac{x+12.8+12.6+11.8+9.7}{5}\\\\61.5=x+12.8+12.6+11.8+9.7\\\\61.5=x+46.9\\\\x=14.6

So, the weight of the heaviest fish is 14.6.

-2(x - 5) = -14 PLEASEEEEE HELPPPPPP
juin [17]
Okay so you need to start off by using the distributive property, meaning you are going to multiply -2 by both items within the parentheses. this gives you -2x + 10 = -14. from here you want to isolate x, so you’ll subtract both sides by 10 to move it to the other side. this gives you -2x=-24. then you’ll divide both sides by -2 to completely isolate x. this gives you x=12. does that make sense?

Simon leans a 20 ft ladder against the side of his house so that the base of the ladder is
finlep [7]
The answer is 19.4
Most of the time when you try to find a missing length of a right triangle you use Pythagorean theorem. Pythagorean theorem is A squared plus B squared equals C squared. C squared is always going to be the longest length/diagonal line otherwise known as your hypotenuse. In this case the ladder is the hypotenuse. So instead of adding five squared +20 squared you’re going to square 20 and then subtract five squared to get the missing length which would be B squared and then you have to find the square root of B squared. So 20 squared is 4000. 5squared is 25 400-25 = 375 square root of 375 is about 19.4.

Factor the common factor out of 8x3 + 12x. please help asap.
Hitman42 [59]
So 8x3 = 24

24 + 12x
the common factor is 12
so you divide everything by 12
24 ÷ 12 = 2
12x ÷ 12 = x

final answer: 12 (2+x)
