Answer:

x...third number

4x...second number

x-9...first number

(x)+(4x)+(x-9)=141

x+4x+x-9=141

6x-9=141

Let's add 9 to both sides...

9+6x-9=141+9

6x=150

Let's divide both sides by 6...

(6x)/6=150/6

x=25

third number...25

second number...(4)(25)=100

first number...(25-9)=16

Let's check our work...

25+100+16=141

141=141

What are the mean and the mode of the following sets of data 5 12 1 5 7
Alik [6]
To find the mean (average), u add up all ur numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are.
mean = (5 + 12 + 1 + 5 + 7) / 5 = 30/5 = 6

To find the mode (and there does not have to be one)...u find the number that is used the most. That number would be 5...because it is used twice, whereas, the other numbers are just used once.
