Yanka [14]
Represent 'a number' by x
7 times x equals 9 more than 4 times x
7 times x=9+4 times x
7x=9+4x
subtract 4x from both sides
3x=9
divide 3
x=3

If 3220 = 80+7, what is the value of c?
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Correct option is

C

36.25

Modal class =30−40

So we have, l=30,f0=12,f1=32,f2=20 and h=10

⇒  Mode=l+2f1−f0f2f1−f0×h

                  =30+2×32−12−2032−12×10

                  =30+6.25

                  =36.25

∴  Mode =36.25

Adding the two equations
3x + 6y + 3x - 6y = 36+0
6x = 36
x = 6
.
subtracting second equation from first
(3x + 6y ) - (3x-6y) =36 -0
12y = 36
y = 3
.
therefore
x = 6 and y = 3
(6,3)
