Answer:
96
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to know the mean of the Steve's scores on 6 of his tests. Given the six scores as 92, 78, 86, 92, 95, and 91.
Mean = sum of the scores/Total test taken
Mean = 92+78+86+92+95+ 91/6
Mean = 534/6
Mean = 89
If he took the seventh test and the mean score is raised by 1 them the new mean will be expressed as;
New mean = 92+78+86+92+95+ 91+x/7 = 89+1
Where x is the new score. Note that of a new score is added, the total year taken will also change to 7
To get x;
92+78+86+92+95+ 91+x/7 = 89+1
92+78+86+92+95+ 91+x/7 = 90
534+x/7 = 90
Cross multiply
533+x = 90×7
533+x = 630
x = 630-534
x = 96
Hence the score of the seventh test is 96
Wait is it not at all 14.5 or 14 1/2 Because with the math I did I got 14 1/2
Let's define the following variables first.
A = number of tickets sold for adults
C = number of tickets sold for children
From the question, we can say that or form the following equations:
1. A + C = 790 tickets
2. $7A + $4C = $4, 390
The first equation can also be written as A = 790 - C. We can use this equation and replace "A" in the second equation.
From that, we can solve "C" by solving the equation formed above.
Therefore, 380 tickets for children were sold.
Since there are 790 tickets in total that are sold and 380 tickets for children were sold, we can say that 410 tickets for adult was sold.
The answer would be 5.
When adding a negative to a positive, it's the same thing as subtracting.
