Answer:
Mean = 28.33
Step-by-step explanation:
Comment
You need two inputs. The first is the sum of the numbers and the second is the number of entries in the data.
Givens
Sum = 3 + 32 + 36 + 30 + 33 + 36
Number of entries = 6
Solution
Sum = 170
Mean = sum / number of enteries
Mean = 170 / 6
Mean = 28.33

Explanation:</h2>
We use an equation to say that two things are equal. An equation always has an equal sign "=". So an equation tells us that the left side is equal to the right side. In this case, we have the following equation:

So the only value that makes this equation to be true is 5, because:

For instance, let's choose another value, say, 8. So substituting:

X=5 because 2x plus 6x equals 8x and then when you divide the 40 by 8 u get 5
X = t - 3 is also -t = -x - 3 or t=x+3
Substitute it in
y=2/t+5
y=2/(x+3)+5
Let y=0 to solve for x
0=2/(x+3)+5
-5= 2/(x+3)
-10=x+3
-7=x
Now solve for t
t = x+3
t = (-7)+3
t = -4
Now we can solve for y
y = 2/(-4)+5
y = -0.5+5
y = 4.5
To check
4.5 = 2/(-4) + 5
4.5 = -0.5 + 5
4.5 = 4.5
-7 = -4 - 3
-7 = -7
Therefore
x = -7
y = 4.5
t = -4
