Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When we take an average of something, we have to add up all the data on the somethings and then divide by the number of somethings we have. Ed takes 5 tests, and we have scores for them; we also have his current average. What we don't know for sure are 2 of the 5 test scores, but we have enough to determine what they are.
If one test has a score of x, and the other test is 3 points less than that, the score on that last test is x - 3. Putting all of that together into an average problem:
and simplfiying a bit:
. Multiply both sides by 5 to get
256 + 2x = 450; subtract 256 from both sides to get
2x = 194 and divide by 2:
x = 97
The one test score was a 97 and the other one, which was 3 less than that, was a 94.
Answer:
The possible parking lengths are 45.96 feet and 174.031 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the length of rectangular plot and y be the breadth of rectangular plot
A rectangular parking lot must have a perimeter of 440 feet
Perimeter of rectangular plot =2(l+b)=2(x+y)=440
2(x+y)=440
x+y=220
y=220-x
We are also given that an area of at least 8000 square feet.
So, 
So,

So,
General quadratic equation : 
Formula : 

So, The possible parking lengths are 45.96 feet and 174.031 feet
If you plug in the x and y, you get
7(1)(3)
7 x 1 x 3 = 21, so the answer is 21
