The average score of those students who passed a test was 65, the average score of those who did not pass was 35, and the overal
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total pass = 65 * number of student that passed, let it be be represented by P and number of students that failed F

Total pass = 65p

And total fail = 35F

For the total pass and failure will be 53(P+F)

Equating to total pass and total fail

65P +35F = 53( P+ F)

65P+35F = 53P+ 53F

65P-53P =53F-35F

12P=18F

2P= 3F

Hence there are 3 passing scores for every 2 failure scores, hence there are a multiple of 5 scores and the same multiple of 3 passing scores.

3/5 * 100= 60%

Answer: If i was living there usually , The climate in Ancient Greece generally has hot summers and mild winters. Because it can get so hot, most people wore lightweight clothing throughout most of the year. They would put on a cloak or wrap during the colder days of the winter months. The environment would make a HUGE impact on the Greeks by teaching them how to collect food and survive in a harsh environment. Therefore, I would have to adapt to adapt to their environment efficiently. The environment also affected them because they had to learn to fish instead of hunt on
