Answer:

The new mean is: 11.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data set

2.4 1.6 3.2 0.3 1.5

Sum of terms = 2.4 + 1.6 + 3.2 + 0.3 + 1.5 = 9

Number of terms = 5

We know that the mean of a data set is the sum of the terms divided by the total number of terms, so

Mean = Sum of terms / Number of terms

substituting Sum of terms = 9 and Number of terms = 5

= 9/5

= 1.8

Thus, the Mean = 1.8

We need to determine the mean when each piece of data is increased by 10.

All we need is to add 10 in the determined mean to determine the new mean.

New Mean = Mean + 10

= 1.8 + 10

= 11.8

Therefore, the new mean is: 11.8

VERIFICATION:

When each piece of data is increased by 10

$2.4+10+1.6+10+3.2+10+0.3+10+1.5+10=59$

so,

$\frac{59}{5}=11.8$

Please help !!! I can’t solve this The teacher doesn’t teach well

Scorpion4ik [409]

So here are 4 rules when it comes to exponents:

When you raise a power to a power, you really just multiply the exponents: $(x^m)^n=x^{m*n}$
When you multiply 2 exponents of the same base, you add the exponents together: $x^m*x^n=x^{m+n}$
When you divide 2 exponents of the same base, you subtract the exponents: $\frac{x^m}{x^n}=x^{m-n}$
To convert a negative exponent into a positive one, flip it to its reciprocal: $x^{-m}=\frac{1}{x^m}\\ \frac{1}{x^{-m}}=\frac{x^{m}}{1}=x^m$

Part A:

$\frac{2x^3y^3}{4y^2}=\frac{1}{2}x^{3-0}y^{3-2}=\frac{1}{2}x^3y$

Part B:

$(\frac{x^{-8}}{y^{11}})^{-2}=\frac{x^{-8*-2}}{y^{11*-2}}=\frac{x^{16}}{y^{-22}}=\frac{x^{16}y^{22}}{1}=x^{16}y^{22}$

Part C:

$\frac{(2x^3)(x^4)^2}{8x^{11}}=\frac{(2x^3)(x^{4*2})}{8x^{11}}=\frac{(2x^3)(x^8)}{8x^{11}}=\frac{2x^{3+8}}{8x^{11}}=\frac{2x^{11}}{8x^{11}}=\frac{1}{4}x^{11-11}=\frac{1}{4}x^0=\frac{1}{4}$
