Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean of a group of values is calculated as
mean = 
Given 5 numbers with a mean of 12, then
= 12 ( multiply both sides by 5 )
sum = 60
let the number removed be x , then
= 11 ( multiply both sides by 4 )
60 - x = 44 ( subtract 60 from both sides )
- x = - 16 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = 16
The number removed was 16
-3. Put the two equation equal to each other and solve.
4x+18=2x+12
-2x=-2x
2x+18=12
-18=-18
2x=-6
2x/2=-6/2
x=-3
Answer:
See explanation below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The prime numbers are bold:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17
18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31
a) We can see that as we go higher, twin primes seem less frequent but even considering that, there is an infinite number of twin primes. If you go high enough you will still eventually find a prime that is separated from the next prime number by just one composite number.
b) I think it's interesting the amount of time that has been devoted to prove this conjecture and the amount of mathematicians who have been involved in this. One of the most interesting facts was that in 2004 a purported proof (by R. F. Arenstorf) of the conjecture was published but a serious error was found on it so the conjecture remains open.
Answer:
y=3x/2-3
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+c
9=m(8)-3
9+3=8m
12=8m
m=12/8
m=3/2
The equation of the line is y=3x/2-3
