Answer:

Country A = 85, Country B = 29, Country C = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

A+B+C=134 ----- eq(1)

B=C+9 ------------ eq(2)

A=36+B+C ------ eq(3)

By substituting eq(2) in eq(3), we get:

A=36+C+9+C

A=2C+45 ------- eq(4)

Now substituting eq(2) & eq(4) in eq(1), we get

2C+45+C+9+C=134

4C+54=134

4C=134-54

4C=80

C=20

Now putting the value of C in eq(2),

B=20+9

B=29

Substituting the value of B & C in eq(1), we get:

A+29+20=134

A+49=134

A=134-49

A=85

If 2/3 of the lasagna is in the refrigerator, 1/3 of it is left.  If Bill and his friends eat 1/2 of the 1/3 remaining, they eat a total of 1/2*1/3=1/6 of the full pan of lasagna.

How does a large outlier affect the data set?
tresset_1 [31]
A large outlier could affect the data set because it could make the mean larger, which just means that the average number of the set would be a lot bigger than it already is.

An example would be: 1, 3, 5, 19

19 is obviously the large outlier, so to find the mean, we would add everything together then divide by 4.

The mean would be 28/4=7 So 7 is our mean, but if the large outlier were, let's say 50, then the mean would be way larger than it already is.

~Hope this helped!~

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

38

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to solve for the expression;

2 + 3² × (5 - 1)

We should aply BODMAS here!

So starting with the brackets;

2 + 3² × 4

Then solving the multiplication part;

3² × 4 = 9 × 4 = 36

Finally adding the integers;

2 + 36 = 38
