Answer:

180 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = total number of pages

Monday + Tuesday + Wednesday

2/15x + 1/3x + 2/9x

= (6x+15x+10x)/45

= 31/45x

Thursday

x - 31/45x

= (45x-31x)/45

= 14/45x

3/4 of 14/45x

= 3/4 * 14/45x

= 42/180x

Total pages read = 31/45x + 42/180x

= (124x+42x)/180

= 166/180x

If he still has 14 pages left to read on Friday

Total read from Monday to Thursday + Friday

x = 166/180x + 14

x - 166/180x = 14

(180x-166x)/180 = 14

14/180x = 14

x = 14 ÷ 14/180

x = 14 × 180/14

x = 180 pages

The mean height of a sample of 15-year-old boys is 175 centimeters, with a standard deviation of 10. For a sample of 15-year-old
Alina [70]
The equation for standard deviation is finding the mean of the numbers, subtracting each of the initial numbers by the mean, squaring each of the results, finding the mean of these results added together, then finding out the square root of the results added together.

The mean of 175 and 165 is 170, subtract 175 and 165 by 170, and you get 5 and -5 respectively. Then, square the results and you get 25 and 25.

Add the two numbers together (25 & 25) then find the square root of it, which is <span>7.07106781187, simplified to 7.07.</span>

Solve the equation for x:
4x+12=48
Subtract 12 from both sides: 4x=36
Divide 4 from both sides to isolate x: x=9
