Answer:
The answer to No. 4 is x = 12.
The answer to No. 5 is 160.
Step-by-step explanation:
(No. 4) The mean (average) is calculated by adding up all the numbers and then dividing by how many numbers there are.
In the first exercise, there are 6 number with a mean of 8.5. Since the mean is calculated by dividing the sum of the numbers by how many numbers there are, we know that the sum of the numbers have to be 8.5 × 6 = 51.
Subtracting all the known numbers from 51 leaves you with the only possible solution for x: 51 - 11 - 8 - 8 - 7 - 5 = 12.
(No. 5) Start by calculating the total mass of all the spiders. (16 × 175) + (24 × 150) = 6,400. Once again, to calculate the mean, divide the total sum of the numbers by how many numbers there are, in this case you divide the total mass of the spiders by how many spiders there are, leaving you with the average of 6,400 ÷ 40 = 160.
C the horizontal line represents x and it goes to -1 you place your coordinates as (x,y)
