Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
The constant ratio (23 mi)/(1 gal) tells you the number of miles is a linear function of the number of gallons.
miles = (miles/gallon) × gallons
miles = constant × gallons . . . . . a linear function of gallons
Let be the 20 marks of the boys, and be the 10 marks of the girls.
We know that the global mean was 70, meaning that
Multiplying both sides by 30 we deduce that the sum of the scores of the whole classroom is
By the same logic, we work with the marks of the boys alone: we know the average:
And we deduce the sum of the marks for the boys:
Which implies that the sum of the marks of the girls is
And finally, the mean for the girls alone is
10 x 200 is 2000
therefore there are 200 tens .
