Answer:
x = 39.1
Step-by-step explanation:
mean = average off all the numbers =
sum of the numbers / amount of numbers.
35 = sum of the #'s / # of #'s
35 = 100.9 + x / 4
35 × 4 = 100.9 + x / 4 × 4
140 = 100.9 + x
140 – 100.9 = 100.9 + x – 100.9
39.1 = x
x = 39.1
If your looking for the positive it’s 58
x is just a stand-in for an unknown/variable number, so we could use phrases like "a number," "a value," "an unknown," etc. Here, I'll use "a number." We can verbally refer to the result of subtraction as "the difference" as well, so we can write x - 6 in English as "The difference of a number and 6."
