Distribute 2/5 and 3/5 into the ():
2/5(a+b)+3/5(a+c)
2/5 a+ 2/5 b+3/5 a+ 3/5 c
combine the like terms:
2/5 a+3/5 a= 5/5 a --> 1a --> a
new simplified equation:
a+2/5 b+3/5 c
Combining three equal groups means that we will mainly depend on multiplying the quantity by 3 to get the total
<u><em>Examples are shown below:</em></u>
1- Mrs Nadia teaches three classes. Each class has 25 student. How many students does Mrs Nadia teach in total?
<u>In this problem</u> we will be combining three equal groups of students where each group has 25 students, therefore:
Total number of students = 3 * 25 = 75 students
2- John has three bags of candies. Each bag contains 10 pieces of candies. How many candies does John has?
<u>In this problem</u> we will be combining three equal groups of candies where each group has 10 pieces, therefore:
Total number of candies = 3 * 10 = 30 candies
Hope this helps :)
Hey!To solve this problem, we need to set up two equations and use the system of equations to solve.
Let x be the first number.
Let y be the second number.
(x + y) ÷ 2 = 34
x = 3y
Now, we can use substitution to solve.
(3y + y) ÷ 2 = 34
4y ÷ 2 = 34
2y = 34
y = 17
Now, you plug the value of y in the equation to solve for x.
x = 3*17
x = 51
hope this helps!!
Answer:
Mean absolute deviation is the average of the absolute deviations from the mean. It is a measure of variability, which gives us an idea about the spread of data points from mean. Therefore, the small MAD means the data points are less deviated from mean. And the large MAD means the data points are more deviated from mean.
Hence, smaller the MAD lesser the variation in data.
