Mathematics

Answer:

a = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is calculated as

mean = \frac{sum}{count}

          = \frac{25+28+a+30+32}{5}  = \frac{115+a}{5}

Then

\frac{115+a}{5} = 27 ( multiply both sides by 5 to clear the fraction )

115 + a = 135 ( subtract 115 from both sides )

a = 20

Need brief explanation about why false is correct
anyanavicka [17]

<u>We are given the equation:</u>

(a + b)! = a! + b!

<u>Testing the given equation</u>

In order to test it, we will let: a = 2 and b = 3

So, we can rewrite the equation as:

(2+3)! = 2! + 3!

5! = 2! + 3!

<em>We know that (5! = 120) , (2! = 2) and (3! = 6):</em>

120 = 2 + 6

We can see that LHS ≠ RHS,

So, we can say that the given equation is incorrect
