<h2>Answer:</h2>

Total price = Mean price × No. of books

Total price = Mean price × No. of books= $10 × 5 = $50.

Now, we will find the cost of other 3books except expensive price and cheapest price.

$50 - ( $15 + $6)

$50 - $21 = $29.

Cost of the 2 books except middle one,

$29 - $8

= $21.

Now, we need a price which is lower than middle one but higher than cheapest price i.e, 7 so

$21 - $7

= $14.

So, the price of remaining two books are $7 and $14 respectively.

Mean is average. Multiply total books by the mean to find the total cost:

5x 10 = $50 total.

Subtract the highest and lowest prices to find the total of the remaining 3 books.

50 - 15-6 = 29

The median price was 8, this is the middle number, subtract 8 from 29 to get the cost of the last 2 books:

29-8 =21

Now you need a price lower than the median but higher than the lowest cost so that has to be 7

Subtract 7 from 21 to get the cost of the last book 21-7 = 14

The price of the remaining books is $7 and $14

Sam works 1/5 hour at the register of a store. He works 2/3 hour in the back stock room and 1/2 hour helping customers. How many

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Sam worked $\frac{41}{30}$ hours that day (fractional answer)

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of hours Sam worked is the sum of all the three hours given.

Let's add the first 2 using LCM and then add that result with the last.

Firstly:

$\frac{1}{5}+\frac{2}{3}\\=\frac{1(3)+2(5)}{15}\\=\frac{13}{15}$

Now,

$\frac{13}{15}+\frac{1}{2}\\=\frac{13(2)+1(15)}{30}\\=\frac{41}{30}$

The hours worked by Sam is 41/30 hours (fractional answer).

How do you use the distance formula and slope formula to find the lengths of a quadrilateral?

Natasha_Volkova [10]

The distance formula to find the length of the sides... opposite sides equal it could be a rectangle or parallelogram all sides equal, square or rhombus adjacent equal, kite and then the slope is used to check angles if the product of the 2 lines in -1 the lines are perpendicular (right angle) the slopes of 2 lines are the same the sides are parallel. Hope it helps.

Write the expression as a whole number with a negative exponent. Do not evaluate the expression.

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: $\frac{1}{3^6}=3^{-6}$

Explanation: Denominators of a fraction can be equivalently written as their value to the power of negative 1. In this case the denominator expression itself has an exponent of 6, which taken to the power of negative one becomes -6:

$\frac{1}{3^6}=(3^6)^{-1}=3^{6(-1)}=3^{-6}$
