Answer:
It goes up by 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean equation: (n₁ + n₂ + n₃ + ...)/n
Current mean: (2 + 4 + 7 + 6 + 3 + 6 + 7)/7 = 35/7 =<em> 5</em>
New mean: (2 + 4 + 7 + 6 + 3 + 6 + 7 + 25)/8 = 60/8 = <em>7.5</em>
Difference: 7.5 - 5 = 2.5
Answer:
0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: the price of 1 yard of chicken wire is $2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of one yard of landscaping fabric.
Let y represent the cost of one yard of chicken wire.
Charlotte pays $24 for 3 yards of landscaping fabric and 6 yards of chicken wire. This means that
3x + 6y = 24 - - - - - - - - - - 1
Kami pays $30 for 6 yards of landscaping fabric and 3 yards of chicken wire. This means that
6x + 3y = 30 - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 6 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes
18x + 36y = 144
18x + 9y = 90
Subtracting
27y = 54
y = 54/27 = 2
Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes
3x + 6×2 = 24
3x = 24 - 12 = 12
x = 12/3 = 4
I got -19/655 and i know for sure this isnt the correct answer.
