Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are 4 people who answered that they had 0 number of scarves we put 4 0's in a set of numbers. Then we see that there are 2 people who have 1 scarf. so there are 2 1's and we keep on going down the line.
{0,0,0,0,1,1,2,3,3,4,5,5} there are 12 numbers here
so we add up all of them
1+1+2+3+3+4+5+5=24
then divide that number by 12 because that's how many numbers there are
24/12=2
The mean of the numbers is 2
Hope that helps :)
Let n represent the number.
.. (n -9)^2 = n -3 . . . . . the square of 9 less than the number is 3 less than the number
.. n^2 -18n +81 = n -3
.. n^2 -19n +84 = 0
.. (n -7)(n -12) = 0
.. n = 7 or 12
The number could be 7 or 12.

Check:
.. (7 -9)^2 = (-2)^2 = 4 = 7 -3 . . . . answer checks OK
.. (12 -9)^2 = 3^2 = 9 = 12 -3 . . . . answer checks OK
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Say Jess owes 30 dollars
30 + 3(.05) = 31.5
30(1.05= 31.5
it makes a lot of sense
Now, If the exponent was negative like you asked....
