Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic equation has degree 2.
You haven't told me what the question is. But I put the mouse
to my forehead, closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and I could
see it shimmering in my mind's eye. It was quite fuzzy, but I think
the question is
"What score does Andrew need on the next test
in order to raise his average to 72% ?"
The whole experience drew an incredible amount of energy
out of me, and the mouse is a total wreck. So we'll just go ahead
and answer that one. I hope it's the correct question.
The average score on 4 tests is
(1/4) (the sum of all the scores) .
In order for Andrew to have a 72% average on 4 tests,
the sum of the 4 scores must be
(4) x (72%) = 288% .
Out of that total that he needs, he already has
(64% + 69% + 73%) = 206%
on the first three tests.
So in order to average 72% for all 4 tests,
he'll need to score
(288% - 206%) = 82%
on the fourth one.
No, 1/3 is greater than 1/6.
1/3 converts to 2/6.
2/6 > 1/6
1.625 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 1.63
He used 53 pounds. I got this by using two equations.
a+b=117
and
5.8a+4.1b= 569.8
I took the first equation and subtracted 'b' so the equation looked like a=117-b.
I then plugged in 117-b into the second equation, so it ended up looking like this:
5.8 (117-b)=569.8
5.8 times 117 is 678.6. And 5.8 times negative b is negative 5.8b.
The equation now looks like this:
678.6-5.8b+4.1b=569.8
Add like terms
678.6-1.7b=569.8
Then subtract 678.6 from both sides
-1.7b= -108.8
divide each side by -1.7
you get b= 64.
But because you are looking for how many pounds for a, subtract 64 from 117. You get 53. 53 is the answer.
