The mean of a dataset is the sum of all data elements divided by the count of the elements.

The location of the 6th score relative to the mean is 5 points below the mean

Let:

\bar x \to<em> Mean</em>

a \to<em> 5 scores</em>

b \to<em> 6th scores</em>

Given that:

n = 6

The 5 scores that are 1 above the mean implies that:

a = \bar x + 1

The mean of a dataset is calculated using:

\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}

So, we have:

\bar x =\frac{5a + b}{6}

\bar x =\frac{5(\bar x + 1) + b}{6}

Open brackets

\bar x =\frac{5\bar x + 5 + b}{6}

Multiply both sides by 6

6\bar x =5\bar x + 5 + b

Make b the subject

b = 6\bar x -5\bar x - 5

b = \bar x - 5

This means that the 6th score is 5 points below the mean

Question 9 (10 points)<br> Solve for x,<br> 2(x - 1) + 4 = 4(x + 1)
Nutka1998 [239]
1. Expand
2x − 2 + 4 = 4x + 4

2. Simply
2x + 2 = 4x + 4

3. Subtract
2 = 4x + 4 - 2x

4. Simplify
2 = 2x + 4

5.Subtract
2 - 4 = 2x

6. Simplify
-2 = 2x

7. Divide both sides by
-1 = x

8.Switch sides.
x = -1

Can someone solve this?
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

B : 4x\sqrt{17}

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide a rhombus using its diagonals, you get 4 right triangles, whose legs are both 1/2 the length of the diagonals.

This means that the legs of one of those 4 triangles have lengths of 2x/2, and 8x/2, so the legs of one of those triangles x and 4x. This makes the length of one side equal to \sqrt{x^{2} + (4x)^{2}} = \sqrt{17x^2} = x\sqrt{17}. Because all 4 sides are the same length, you multiply this value by 4, and get 4x\sqrt{17}, which is B.

For which pair of triangles would you use AAS to prove the congruence of the 2 triangles
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to AAS congruence rule, two triangles are congruent if two angles and a non included side are congruent to corresponding angles and side of another triangle.

We need two angles and a non included side, to use AAS postulate.

In option A, two sides and their inclined angle are congruent, therefore these triangles are congruent by SAS postulate and option A is incorrect.

In option B, two angles and a non included side are congruent, therefore these triangles are congruent by AAS postulate and option B is correct.

In option C, two angles and their included side are congruent, therefore these triangles are congruent by ASA postulate and option C is incorrect.

In option D, all sides are congruent, therefore these triangles are congruent by SSS postulate and option D is incorrect.

Please help me ASAP..
Triss [41]

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x - 1) = -45

5x - 5 = -45

add 5 to each side of the equation:

5x = -40

divide both sides by 5:

x = -8
