The three scores are 86, 74, and an unknown score x. The average (i.e. the sum divided by how many there are) is 80, so we have
Multiply both sides by 3 and you get
Subtract 160 from both sides to get
Note: you could solve this exercise very quickly if you notice that the two numbers, 86 and 74, are symmetrical with respect to 80, which is the average. So, the third number must be the average.
Hi there! The answer is D. kite.
A kite is a quadrilateral with four sides. These four sides can be grouped into two pairs of two sides. The sides in a pair equal in length. The two pairs of angles are adjecent to each other.
An easy way to recognise this mathematical shape is by comparing it to a kite in real life (a kite is a frame covered with paper or plastic, designed to be flown in the air).

Answer:
14. 4 + x - 2
15. 8k - 3k
16. 5 + 2y + 15
Step-by-step explanation:
14. "sum" means adding, "minus" means subtract
sum of four and x: 4 + x
minus two: 4 + x - 2
15. "product" means multiplying, "decreased by" means subtract, "times" means multiply
the product of k and 8: 8k
three times k: 3k
the product of k and 8 decreased by three times k: 8k - 3k
(Depending on what the question is asking, you may or may not need to simplify this to 5k (8k - 3k = 5k))
16. "more" means add, "plus" means add, "twice" means multiply by two
five: 5
plus twice y: 5 + 2y
fifteen more: 5 + 2y + 15
What is an estimate of 23 times 67
1,500
To subtract? as minus means subract/take away?
