72 is the minimum grade he must get on the last test in order to have an average of 77.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The grades of a student are given 72,91,78,72 and the grade of his last test is not given.
- You have to find the minimum grade the student shall get, so that the student average must be 77.
- The four grades are already given. Therefore, we need to find only the fifth grade.
The term average is defined as the sum of all the data in a set divided by the number of data in a set.
Here, the number of data is 5. (Because the students has 4 grades plus one grade for his last test).
The average he should get is 77.
Average = Sum of all grades / number of grades
Let, 'x' be the grade of the last test.
⇒ 77 = (72+91+78+72+x) / 5
⇒ 77 = (313+x) / 5
⇒ 385 = 313 + x
⇒ x = 385 - 313
⇒ x = 72
The minimum grade he must get on the last test is 72.
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The number of days Jonathan ran = 5
The most he ran in 1 day = 3.5 miles
Therefore, the maximum distance he ran in a week= 
Let x be the distance Jonathan could have rum in a week, such that

Hence, the required inequality is
.
Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
No, it is a linear equation. There are no exponents on the x or y variables.
You can do
3 * 2 and 11 * 2 which would be 6:22 and is still equal to the ratio 3:11. Your explanation can be the when divided by 2 or the number you multiplied by, you would get the original ratio
Examples:
6:22
9:33
12:44
