6 m.p.g if that's the type of question your referring to...
We add up all those numbers (excluding 30) and divide by the number of numbers (9). This results in 78.8 (round up to 79).
79-74 = 5. So the mean has increased by 5 points. (C)
M = 135/19 and n = -5/19
You have to give them like terms so that when you eliminate they cancel out and you can solve. The easiest way to do so is by multiplying the top equation by -4 and the bottom by 3.
Answer:
35
Step-by-step explanation:
Make equations, l = w+5 and 2l + 2w = 150
Substitute w+5 into 2l + 2w = 150
Simplify to get 4w + 10 = 150
Subtract 10 from both sides to get 4w = 140
Divide both sides by 4 and you get 35 as width
Answer: The smaller piece is 750m long.
Step-by-step explanation:
let the smaller piece be x
so
150m + x + x = 1650
150 + 2x = 1650
or, 2x = 1500
so, x = 750 m
