The mean is the average of the numbers.
It is easy to calculate: add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are.
Let the number of sit-ups you have to do Sunday be x. Then the sum of all sit-ups is
100+65+120+150+90+0+x=525+x.
The number of days is 7.
Thus, the mean is
You know that the mean number of sit-ups per day is 100, equate these two means and solve the equation:
Answer: 175 sit-ups

EXPLANATION
The given polynomial is
where a=1,b=k, c=30
Let the zeroes of this polynomial be m and n.
Then the sum of roots is
and the product of roots is
The square difference of the zeroes is given by the expression.
From the question, this difference is 169.
This implies that:
We substitute the values of k into the equation and solve for x.
The zeroes are given by;
