Answer:

$4.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the mean formula: mean = sum of elements / number of elements

Let x represent the cost of the fifth book, and solve for x:

mean = sum of elements / number of elements

3.25 = (11.75 + x) / 5

16.25 = 11.75 + x

4.5 = x

So, the cost of the fifth book was $4.50

What is RS? Please help will give Brainlyest.
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

<h2>         RS = 47</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

RV=VU and SW=WT    ⇒    VW=\dfrac{RS+UT}{2}

Therefore:

3x+5=\dfrac{2x+15+6x-37}{2}\\\\3x+5=\dfrac{8x-22}{2}

3x + 5 = 4x - 11        {subtract 5 from both sides)

3x = 4x - 16             {subtract 4x from both sides)

-x = -16                   {divide both sides by (-1)}

x=16

So:

RS = 2x + 15 = 2×16 + 15 = 32 + 15 = 47

The measures of the sides of a triangle are 2x + 3, 8x – 4, and . Write an expression that describes the perimeter of the triang
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

C


Step-by-step explanation:


Perimeter of a triangle is the sum of all the sides.


A triangle has 3 sides, so if we add up all the 3 sides lengths <em>(given as expressions here)</em> of the triangle, we will have the perimeter.

Perimeter = (2x+3)+(8x-4)+(x^2)\\=2x+3+8x-4+x^2

<em>Now combining like terms we have:</em>

<em>2x+3+8x-4+x^2\\=x^2+10x-1</em>


Answer choice C is the correct one.
