Answer:

C. The mean increases by 0.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of a data set is given by the sum of all its values, divided by the number of values.

Data set {10, 2, 8, 9, 5, 2, 6}

7 values

Sum: 10 + 2 + 8 + 9 + 5 + 2 + 6 = 42

Mean: 42/7 = 6

Adding number 12 to the data set

Now we have 8 values

The sum is 42 + 12 = 54

The mean is 54/8 = 6.75

This means that the mean increases by 0.75.

True or false: 4/8 and 10/16 are equivalent fractions?
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 8 by 2 to create the common denominator (which is 16).

Now multiply 4 by 2 to keep the fraction even.

This gives you the fraction 8/16 which is not equivalent to 10/16.

Another way you could write this inequality:

8/16 < 10/16

Find the value of d.<br> 1/2d - 5 -1/4d = 10
Ksenya-84 [330]
D=60. multiply both sides of the equation by 4 since it’s a factor, giving you 2d-20-d=40. since there are like terms with d, collect them to get d-20=40 and move 20 to the right and change it’s sign. that will give you d=40+20, then calculate to get d=60. hope this helped! :)
