Answer:

59.98

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average of a set of numbers, we sum them all together and divide them by the size of the set. Here, we start out with 11 IQ scores. We don't know what they are, but we can still set up an equation with the information we do have. Let's call the sum of those 11 score <em>s</em>. The average must be s/11, which we know is 101.5. With that, we can set up and solve and equation for <em>s</em>:

\dfrac{s}{11}=101.5\\s=101.5(11)\\s=1116.5

Let's call the score of the reality TV star <em>r</em>. If we add their score to the set, we now have <em>12</em> scores. The sum of those scores is gonna be the sum of the previous scores, 1116.5, plus the reality TV star's score, r. To find the average, we divide the sum by 12. Finally, we're told that this average is exactly 98.04. Putting all of this into an equation gives us

\dfrac{1116.5+r}{12}=98.04

We can now solve for r algebraically, first by multiplying both sides by 12:

1116.5+r=98.04(12)\\1116.5+r=1176.48

And then subtracting 1116.5 from both sides:

r=1176.48-1116.5\\r=59.98

Answer:

 ∠STU = 69°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle with vertex T is called an "inscribed angle." It intercepts arc SU. The relationship you are asked to remember is that the measure of the inscribed angle (T) is half the measure of the arc SU.

Point V is taken to be the center of the circle. The angle with vertex V is called a "central angle." It also intercepts arc SU. The relationship you are asked to remember is that the measure of the central angle (V) is equal to the measure of arc SU.

__

Using these two relationships together, we realize angle V is twice the measure of angle T:

  ∠SVU = 2×∠STU

  18x +12° = 2(18x -57°) . . . . . . relationship between the marked angles

  18x +12° = 36x -114° . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  126° = 18x . . . . . . . . . . . add 114°-18x

  ∠STU = 18x -57° = 126° -57°

 ∠STU = 69°

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

You may notice we did not solve for x. We only needed to know the value of 18x, so we stopped when we found that value. (Actually, we only need the value of 18x-57°. See below.)

__

<em>Alternate solution</em>:

  (18x +12°) -(18x -57°) = 18x -57° . . . . . . . subtract 18x -57° from both sides of the first equation.

  69° = 18x -57° . . . . . simplify. This is the answer to the problem.

At CD Shack, all used CDs are the same price. Jesse spent $54 and Mimi spent $66 on used CDs. What is the most each used CD coul
Alinara [238K]
Hey there
__________
The correct answer is
Whatever each CD costs, what each person paid is that cost times the number of CDs purchased (no sales tax for this problem).
So, the price of one CD is a factor of $66 (a number of $ that divides $66 evenly).
In theory, it could be $1, $2, $3, $6, $11, $22, $66.
It could even be $0.50, $0.25, $0.20, $0.10, $0.05,...
Also, the price of one CD must be a factor of $54. such as $54,$27,$18,$9,$6,$3,$2,$1,... .
You are looking for the most that price could be.


The grew greatest price that is in both lists is $6.

How can you make those lists?
You can start with the total price, then the price divided by 2, by 3, by whatever whole number you can divide it.

Otherwise, you could find the greatest common factor of 66 and 54
from the prime factorization of both numbers.
