Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
To get from 1 to 2 you multiply by 2.
To get from 2 to 4 you multiply by 2.
Notice how each number is multiplied by 2? Now try multiplying 16 times 2 which would be 32.
Firstly, put Derek and Paul's collection together:
1950, 1952, 1908, 1902, 1955, 1954, 1901, 1910, 1929, 1935, 1928, 1930, 1925, 1932, 1933, 1920
1950+1952+1908+1902+1955+1954+ 1901+1910+1929+1935+1928+1930+ 1925+ 1932+1933+1920
=30864
=30864÷16
=1929
∴the mean is 1929.
Median:
1901, 1902, 1908, 1910, 1920, 1925, 1928, 1929, 1930, 1932, 1933, 1935,
1950, 1952, 1954, 1955
1930÷1929
=1.0005184
= Median
Range:
1955-1901
=54
∴the range is 54.
I think the answer is 17/4
Eliminate one of the variables..
2x + 2y = 28
2x = -2y + 28
8x - 2y= 22
8x = 2y + 22
x = 0.25y + 2.75
combine equations...
-y +14 = 0.25y + 2.75
solve for the variable..
-y - 0.25y = 2.75 - 14
-1.25y = -11.25
y = 9
replace y with 9 in previous equation..
x = -y + 14
x = -9 + 14
x = 5
so y = 9 and x = 5
I hope I did that right good luck!
Answer:
The value of x is 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Matthew earned 7500 of 15000, that is, 1/2.
Rate of 5:2:x, with number 5 corresponding to Matthew, mean that his fraction of the earnings is given by:

Since he earned 1/2 of the total:
We have that 5/(7+x) = 1/2. So we use this to find x.

Applying cross multiplication:



The value of x is 3.
