We want to find the mean of two elements in a set, given that we know the other elements of the set and the mean of the whole set.

The answer is: -490

-----------------------------

For a set with N elements {x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ} the mean is given by:

M = \frac{x_1 + x_2 + ... + x_n}{N}

Here we know that:

  • The mean of the set is 0.
  • The set has 1000 elements.
  • 998 of these elements are ones, the other two are A and B.

We want to find the mean of the values of A and B.

First, we can start by writing the equation for the mean:

\frac{1 + 1 + 1 + ... A + B}{1000}  = 0

We can rewrite this as:

1 + 1 + 1 +... + A + B = 0

And we have 998 ones, then:

1 + 1 + 1 +... + A + B = 998 + A + B = 0\\\\B = - 998 - A

Now we have B isolated.

With this, the mean of A and B can be written as:

\frac{A + B}{2}  = \frac{A - 980 - A}{2} = -490

So we can conclude that the mean of the other two numbers is -490.

Please help with my question it is the millers shower uses 25 gallons of water for a 10 min shower. Now how many gallons of wate
klasskru [66]
Answer: The Millers need 15 gallons of water for 6 minutes.


Lets start by finding how much water is needed for 1 min shower. 
<span>
25 gallons of water is used for 10 min shower:

</span>10 mins = 25 gallons <span>

To find 1 min shower, we will divide the 25 gallons of water by 10. 
</span><span>
10 mins = 25 gallons            </span>← Divide by 10 on both sides<span>
÷ 10           ÷ 10
1 min = 2.5 gallons

Now that we know the Millers need 2.5 gallons for every 1 minute of shower, we can find 6 minutes of shower by multiplying by 6.

1 min = 2.5 gallons</span>         ← Multiply 6 on both sides<span>
   x6           x6
6 min = 15 gallons

-----------------------------------------------</span>---------------------------------------<span>
Answer: The Millers need 15 gallons of water for 6 minutes.
