8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

mean is calculated as

mean = $\frac{sum}{count}$

Given the mean of 12 numbers is 20 , then

$\frac{sum}{12}$ = 20 ( multiply both sides by 12 )

sum = 240

Given the mean of 8 numbers is 25 , then

$\frac{sum}{8}$ = 25 ( multiply both sides by 8 )

sum = 200

Total sum of the 20 numbers = 240 + 200 = 440, then mean of 20 numbers is

mean = $\frac{440}{20}$ = 22

Fantastic Middle School is building a park, in the shape of a square, with an area of 256 square feet. How much fence do they ne

frez [133]

A = a^2.....where " a " is the size of 1 side
A = 256

256 = a^2...take sqrt of both sides, eliminating the ^2
sqrt 256 = a
16 = a

so each side is 16 ft....now we find the perimeter
P = 4a....where " a " is the size of each side
P = 4(16)
P = 64.......so they will need 64 ft of fencing <===
