X=y+2
x=3y
2x=4y+2
4y+2=2(y+2)
4y+2=2y+4
2y+2=4
2y=2
y=1
x=3
1+3=4

Their sum is 4

Hope this helps :)

The median, because the data is not symmetric and there are outliers is the data is not symmetric and there are outliers.

The median of the data set is 8 cakes, while the average is 7.5.

However, 21 of the 31 chefs, or roughly 2/3, made 8 or more cakes. This makes the median a better center for this data, since the data is clearly skewed. The four chefs that made 1 cake each brings the average down, skewing the mean and making the median a better representation of the data.

You and your friend drive toward each other. The equation 50h=190−45h represents the number h of hours until you and your friend

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

The answer is 2 hours later.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find how many hours you and your friend meet, you have to solve the equation to find h :

$50h = 190 - 45h$

$50h + 45h = 190$

$95h = 190$

$h = 190 \div 95$

$h = 2$

Help plz I'm desperate

<u>Anna:</u>

1st month = 18 + $\frac{3}{4}$ = 18 $\frac{3}{4}$ inches

2nd month = 18 $\frac{3}{4}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = 19 $\frac{1}{2}$

3rd month = 19 $\frac{1}{2}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = 20 $\frac{1}{4}$

4th month = 20 $\frac{1}{4}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = 21

5th month = 21 + $\frac{3}{4}$ = 21 $\frac{3}{4}$

<u>Grace:</u>

Because Anna is $\frac{9}{4}$ inches shorter than Grace, we can start the count from the third month:

1st month = 20 $\frac{1}{4}$

2nd month = 21

3rd month = 21 $\frac{3}{4}$

4th month = 21 $\frac{3}{4}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = 22 $\frac{1}{2}$

5th month = 22 $\frac{1}{2}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = 23
