Answer:

The two expressions are;

1) -8 ft. + 3 × 6 ft. = 12 feet

2) -6 ft. + 2 × 5 ft. + 8 ft. = 12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The lengths in feet Cecil can travel = 5 feet, 6 feet, and 8 feet

The distances Cecil can travel forward = (positive 5, 6, 8)

Backwards Cecil can travel distances of (-5, -6, -8)

Cecil can go forward past the ladder and return back

Therefore, the number expressions by which Cecil can cross a tightrope 12 feet long are;

1) -8 ft. + 3 × 6 ft. = 12 feet

Which is to go back 8 feet and then to go forward 6 feet three times

2) -6 ft. + 2 × 5 ft. + 8 ft. = 12 feet

Which is to go back 6 feet then to go forward in 5 feet two times and then in forward again in 8 feet.

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Sample mean =119.42

Median = 92

25% trimmed mean = 102.42

10% trimmed mean = 95.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Data in increasing order :

12 13 20 23 31 35 40 43 48 49 58 62 66 67 69 71 73 77 78 79 82 85 86 89 91 93 97 99 101 105 106 106 112 117 124 135 139 141 147 159 161 168 183 207 249 262 289 323 388 513

Total no. of observations = 50

Sample mean = \frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observations}}

= \frac{5971}{50} = 119.42

Median: Since we have even number of observation

Median = \frac{1}{2}({25\text{th term} + 26\text{th term}) = \frac{91+93}{2} = 92

10% Trimmed Mean: We remove 5 values from each side

Trimmed set = 35 40 43 48 49 58 62 66 67 69 71 73 77 78 79 82 85 86 89 91 93 97 99 101 105 106 106 112 117 124 135 139 141 147 159 161 168 183 207 249

Trimmed mean =  \frac{\text{Sum of Trimmed Set}}{\text{Total number of observations}} = \frac{4097}{40} = 102.42

25% Trimmed Mean: We remove 12 values from each side.

Trimmed set =  66 67 69 71 73 77 78 79 82 85 86 89 91 93 97 99 101 105 106 106 112 117 124 135 139 141

Trimmed mean =  \frac{\text{Sum of Trimmed Set}}{\text{Total number of observations}} = \frac{2488}{26} = 95.69

Help me please! will mark brainliest if ur correct!
Zina [86]

Answer:

i think it's c

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so i think i get it, volume is width*length*depth so dividing the known volume by its width gives you the length*depth.

after that set up a porportion:

(L*W)of known/92 = x/46

solve for x gives you the length*depth of the unknown volume, times that but the 46 width.. i got 60

i think that's right but im not a teacher or anything
