A golf tournament has five rounds. The players are given scores for each round based on how many strokes they are above or below

72. Ricky has recorded his score for each of the 5 rounds.
Strokes - how many times a player swings the club or hit the ball

Round ------------------------------------------------1 2 3 4 5
Number of Strokes Above or Below 72 -5 +6 -2 +4 +5

Write an expression to represent Ricky's total number of strokes for the five rounds.

What was his average number of strokes per round? Show your work.​

Answer:

(A) ∫₁⁵[Xₙ + k] where n ranges from 1 to 5

(B) 73.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is clear enough. Kudos!

So there are many players but we're focusing on Ricky.

Ricky has already recorded his score for each of the 5 rounds in the tournament.

The number of strokes in Ricky's record are to be added to or subtracted from a given number 72

ROUND 1:    [72 - 5] strokes = 67

ROUND 2:   [72 + 6] strokes = 78

ROUND 3:   [72 - 2] strokes = 70

ROUND 4:   [72 + 4] strokes = 76

ROUND 5:   [72 + 5] strokes = 77

(A) Write an expression to represent Ricky's total number of strokes for the five rounds.

Do not panic at this first exercise. You are to write an expression which when evaluated, will give the total number of strokes for all five rounds!

You are already given an abstract number '72' to work with in this question.

It is a fixed quantity which influences the value of strokes for each round.

We will represent this by an algebra, if we have to create the above required expression.

The expression will then be:

∫₁⁵[Xₙ + k] where n ranges from 1 to 5

You already know that the sigma sign '∫' represents summation and that's summation from the subscript '1' to the superscript '5'.

X₁ would be -5,   X₂ would be +6,   X₃ would be -2,   X₄ would be +4,   X₅ would be +5

K is the constant 72

(B) What was Ricky's average number of strokes per round?

Out of the 5 rounds, the average number of strokes per round would be

[67 + 78 + 70 + 76 +77] ÷ 5

= 368/5  = 73.6

If the parallel sides of a trapezoid are contained by the lines and , find the equation of the line that contains the midsegment
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Equation of midsegment line: y = (-1/4)x + 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the parallel sides of a trapezoid are contained by the lines:-

y = (-1/4)x +5 and y = (-1/4)x - 1

Midsegment of any trapezoid is the line segment

1. that is parallel to pair of parallel side of trapezoid and

2. that passes through the middle of the trapezoid and cuts the other two sides into equal-half.

It means the midsegment would have same slope as the parallel lines and y-intercept would be in the middle of intercepts of parallel lines.

So y = mx + b

where m = -1/4 and b = (5 - 1)/2 = 4/2 = 2.

Hence, the equation of midsegment would be y = (-1/4)x + 2.

PLEASE HELP For the expression below, write two other equivalent expressions using different terms. Make sure one is fully simpl
Julli [10]

Given:

The given expression is

-4(x+2)-2x+4

To find:

The two other equivalent expressions.

Solution:

We have,

-4(x+2)-2x+4

Using distributive property, we get

=-4(x)-4(2)-2x+4

=-4x-8-2x+4

So, one equivalent expression is -4x-8-2x+4.

On further simplification, we get

=(-4x-2x)+(-8+4)

=6x-4

Therefore, the second and fully simplified equivalent expression is 6x-4.
