the number of points in the first five games of the football season are listed below. what is the mean number of points scored?
yarga [219]
^ You again? Quit being sus and answer the question here instead of elsewhere.

To find the mean, all you have to do is add each number and then divide by how many numbers you added.

So, 38 + 29 + 16 + 42 + 33 = 158. There were five numbers added, so the next step is to divide 158 by 5. That equals 31.6 as your answer.

Answer:

The expressions for the payment made to Mary are,

(Monday) 90 = 15m + b

(Tuesday) 62 = 8m + b

where m and b are the fee per student and the base fee, respectively. Solving for m and b, the values are 4 and 30.

The equation that represents Mary's earning is

y = 4x + 30

For 20 students,

y = 4(20) + 30 = 110

For Lisa's earnings,

y = 8x + 15

Substituting 20,

y =8(20) + 15 = 175

Thus, Lisa would earn more than Mary by $65.

(Btw this is not my work, I got it from someone else on brainly and wanted to help lol)

Question #2
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

First, the student performed what was inside of the parentheses and was exponential, which is correct. We know this because of the rules called order of operations, outlined by PEMDAS, which tells us to perform mathematical operations in the following order: parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction.

So by the rules I just outlined, next the student should have performed the multiplication, but instead performed subtraction, which is incorrect.

The following is the correct simplification of the expression:

23 - 8 times 2 + 3 by the power of 2

So first we should perform parentheses, but there are none. So we move to the next option in the list, which is exponents, which we do have (3^2).

23 - 8 * 2 + 3^2

23 - 8 * 2 + 9

Next in PEMDAS comes multiplication and division. This means the next step in simplifying the expression is to evaluate 8*2.

23 - 16 + 9

Next in PEMDAS is addition, so we should perform the operation -16 + 9.

23 - 7

Finally, the last step in PEMDAS is to simplify the remaining operation (subtraction).

16

Therefore, the student did the first step correctly but performed the second step incorrectly. The final answer should be 16 after simplification.

Hope this helps!
