Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Solving Equations Using Successive Approximations</u>
We need to find the solution to the equation

where


The approximation has been already started and reached a state for x=2.5 where


The difference between the results is 0.25, we need further steps to reach a good solution (to the nearest tenth)
Let's test for x=2.4


The new difference is -0.2+0.24=0.04
It's accurate enough, thus the solution is

Larry needs
to score
33 points in the last game to have an average of 25 PPG.
To find the answer, we can solve the equation:

<em />(where <em>p</em> is how many points he needs to score in the last game)
To find the mean of a group of numbers, you add them all up and divide the total by the number of numbers there are. Since Larry averaged 23 PPG in 4 games, we can multiply 23 by 4 to get the total of the first 4 games from the data. Then, we find <em>p</em>, which we will add to get our final total. Then, you divide by the 5 games.




First, I simplified 4 x 23 to get 92. Then, I multiplied each side by 5 to get rid of the denominator. Finally, I subtracted 92 from each side to isolate <em>p</em>, and found that <em>p</em> = 33.
Answer: 2.4 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation: just do 7.2/3=2.4
or another way you could do this is do 2.4 x 3=7.2
