Answer:

A score of greater than equal to 128 and less than 188 will get a grade of Upper C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Scores:

66​, 74​, 71​, 81

Let x be the score on fifth test.

\text{Average} = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observation}}

To get a grade of Upper C​, the average of the first five tests scores must be greater than or equal to 70 and less than 80.

70 \leq \text{Average} < 80

The fifth test counts as two​ tests.

Putting the values we get:

70 \leq \dfrac{66 +74+71 + 81+ x}{6} < 80\\\\420 \leq 292 + x < 480\\420 -292 \leq x < 480 - 292\\128 \leq x < 188

Thus, a score of greater than equal to 128 and less than 188 will get a grade of Upper C

Kim is 5 years older than her brother Jack. If the sum of their ages is 21, find each of their ages.
yarga [219]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • Kim is 13
  • Jack is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let k represent Kim's age. Then Jack's age is k-5 and the total of their ages is ...

  k + (k -5) = 21

  2k = 26 . . . . . . . add 5, collect terms

  k = 13 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2; Kim's age

  k -5 = 8 . . . . . . . Jack's age

Kim is 13; Jack is 8.

Find the measure of the exterior angle.
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

120 degrees! (line) or 300.

Step-by-step explanation:

All lines are 180 degrees, this triangle is congruent, so all sides are 60 degrees. 180 minus 60 is 120.

If it's a measure of a 360 degree angle, using 2 lines from the triangle, then you take 60 away from 360. A circle formed with that angle at it's radius would be 300 degrees.

What are the similarities and differences between the standard form and vertex form of a quadratic equation?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: <u>Standard</u> <u>form</u> of a quadratic equation is expressed as: y=ax²+bx+c, while <u>vertex</u> <u>form</u> is written as:

y=a(x-h)²+k.

The similarities between standard and vertex forms is that they show if the graph of the equation has a <u>minimum</u> (when a>0) or <u>maximum</u> (a<0) and it's easier to determine the y-intercept: for standard, the value of c is the intercept; for vertex, the value k is the intercept.

The advantage of standard form is that you can determine the product and sum of the equation's roots, which is a method to determine them.

The advantages of vertex form are: easier to find the vertex of the graph, which is the pair (h,k) and the axis of symmetry, which is the value of h.
