Answer:
option (c) The mean age will stay the same but the variance will decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
Case I: For 3 executives of ages 56, 57 and 58
Number of executives, n = 3
Mean =
or
Mean = 57
Variance =
or
Variance =
or
Variance =
or
Variance = 1
For Case II: For 4 executives of ages 56, 57, 58 and 57
Number of executives, n = 4
Mean =
or
Mean = 57
Variance =
or
Variance =
or
Variance =
or
Variance = 0.67
Hence,
Mean will remain the same and the variance will decrease
Hence,
The correct answer is option (c) The mean age will stay the same but the variance will decrease

Answer:
-12, -21
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the first number. Then the second is x-9. The other relation is ...
4x = 2(x-9) -6
2x = -24 . . . . . subtract 2x, simplify
x = -12
x-9 = -21
The first number is -12; the second number is -21.
Volume is legnth times widht times height
lenght=2x-1
width=x-2
height=x+1
multiply all together
use mass distributive property
distributive=a(b+c)=ab+ac so extending that
(a+c)(c+c)=(a+b)(c)+(a+b)(d) then keep distributing so
(2x-1)(x-2)(x+1)
do each one seperately
do the first two first and put the other one (x+1) to the side for later
(2x-1)(x-2)=(2x-1)(x)+(2x-1)(-2)=(2x^2-x)+(-4x+2)=2x^2-5x+2
then do the other one
(x+1)(2x^2-5x+2)=(x)(2x^2-5x+2)+(1)(2x^2-5x+2)=(2x^3-5x^2+2x)+(2x^2-5x+2)=2x^3-3x^2-3x+2
the lasst form is 2x^3-3x^2-3x+2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable of y from one side of the equation.
-14=5(3y-10)-5y
<u>First, switch sides.</u>

Use the distributive property.
<u>DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY:</u>
A(B-C)=AB-AC
5(3y-10)
Multiply by expand.
5*3y=15y
5*10=50
15y-50-5y
15y-5=10y
= 10y-50
10y-50=-15
Add by 50 from both sides.
10y-50+50=-15+50
Solve.
10y=35
Then, you divide by 10 from both sides.
10y/10=35/10
Solve.
Divide the numbers from left to right.
35/10=7/2
y=7/2
Divide is another option.
7/2=3.5

- <u>Therefore, the correct answer is y=7/2.</u>

Each dvd cost $7.50 how? Your friends buy 8 dvd's and in total is 60, you want to divide 60 from 8 and find that it's 7.50 and then multiply 8 to 7.50 and it should be 60. Hope this helps!!
