So we know that an average is the sum of the scores divided by the number of scores that were added together. In this case we are going to be dealing with 4 tests. So let's say x is the score for our fourth test. We can create this equation:
So then we need to simplify the top:
Then multiply by 4 on both sides to get rid of the denominator:
Then solve for x:
So now we know that Sam needs to score a 67 on the fourth test to have an average score of 50.
If half of two acres was planted with green beans, the answer would be one acre
Answer:
C) -1
Step-by-step explanation:
(ax+3)²=36
<em>Square root both sides</em>
ax+3=6
<em>Subtract 3 from both sides</em>
ax=3
<em>Put x in</em>
-3a=3
a= -1
C) -1 would work.
The first term a = 1,
Common difference, d: 7 - 1 = 6.
a(n) = a + (n -1)d,
For 30th term. = 1 + (30 -1)*6
= 1 + 29*6 = 1 + 174 = 175
1/2 pounds,
assuming that each friend takes an equal part of the 2 1/2 pounds, then 2 1/2 divided by 5 would get you 1/2 pound
