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

What value correctly fills in the blank so that the expressions are equivalent?
Rasek [7]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice:

32 = (8 x 4)

72 = (8 x 9)

Hence,

32 + 72

= (8 x 4) + (8 x 9)       (factorize out the 8)

= 8 x (4 + 9)

therefore the musing number is 8

What are the angles of a triangle
Talja [164]
The angles inside a triangle are called interior angles. The diagram below shows the interior and exterior angles of a triangle. The three interior angles in a triangle will always add up to 180°. At each corner the exterior and interior angles are on a straight line, so at each corner these two angles add up to 180°.
