Answer:

The missing value is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 5 values but only 4 are given:

⇒ The given values are: 8, 14, 7, and 13

⇒ Let the fifth value be "x"

We also know the mean which is 9.6

<em><u>Solve for the missing value:</u></em>

⇒ 9.6 (mean) = \frac{8 + 14 + 7 + 13 + x}{5 numbers}

<em>multiply 5 on both sides </em>

⇒ 9.6 x 5 = \frac{8 + 14 + 7 + 13 + x}{5 numbers} x 5

⇒ 48 = 8 + 14 + 7 + 13 + x

<em>add the numbers:</em>

⇒ 8 + 14 + 7 + 13 + x = 42 + x

<em>the equation becomes: </em>

⇒ 48 = 42 + x

<em>Now, subtract 42 on both sides:</em>

⇒ 48 - 42 = 42 - 42 + x

⇒ 6 = x

James asked 60 pupils which drink they liked best from cola, milk and water.
Olin [163]

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 60 pupils in the survey

32 are boys, so we assume 28 are girls

12 of the boys said cola was their favourite

4 boys liked water best.

That is a total of 16 boys who prefer either cola or water out of 32 total boys

There are 16 boys leftover who must have milk as there favourite

9 girls liked water best

21 pupils altogether said milk was there favourite. We know there are 16 boys who said milk was there favourite, meaning 5 of these pupils must be girls.

That means 9 girls have water as their favourite and 5 have milk as their favourite, a total of 14

We know there are 28 girls total. That means 14 of them must have listed cola as their favourite drink.

There are 14 girls and 12 boys who said cola was their favourite, a total of 26 pupils

A carpenter designs two cabinets: one in the shape of an oblique rectangular prism and one in the shape of a right
natulia [17]

Answer:

  • The cabinets have the same base area.
  • The cabinets may have the same base dimensions.
  • The cabinets may have different base dimensions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a prism is the product of its base area and height. It doesn't matter whether the prism is right or oblique, and the shape of the base is immaterial.

Both the given prisms have the same volume and height, so their base areas must be the same. The dimensions of the base may be the same, but do not have to be the same.
