Answer:

a) Is it possible for Fred to accomplish this? Yes

b) If it is possible, what score does he need in his next game? 293

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Let us represent the number of games Fred bowled to get an average of 177 = X

His total points scored in that game would be

177 × X

= 177X

To achieve an average of 178 for his next game,

The total number of points he scored was 199, hence that is represented as:

178 = 177X + 199/ X + 1

178(X + 1) = 177X + 199

178X + 178 = 177X + 199

178X - 177X = 199 - 178

X = 21

Hence, Fred bowled 21 games to achieve an average of 178

Therefore, the score he needs to have on the 23rd game is obtained as:

= (23 × 183) - (22 × 178) = 4209 - 3916 = 293

Therefore, it is possible for Fred to raise his average from 178 to 183 in a single game, but he must bowl 293 in his next game to do this.

I(t) = 27, 992 * (1.017) ^ t covert to log

klemol [59]

Answer:

By 2034 Texas per capita income would reach at least $50,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

$I(t) = 27,992(1.017)^t$

Converting the given function to log;

$I(t) = 27,992(1.017)^t \\\\\frac{I(t)}{27,992} = (1.017)^t\\\\Log_{1.017} ( \frac{I(t)}{27,992} )= t \\\\(Based \ on \ log \ rule; if \ a = b^y , in \ log \ it \ will \ be \ written \ as, Log_b \ a = y)$

(B) When I(t) = $50,000, the time "t" will become;

$Log_{1.017} ( \frac{I(t)}{27,992} )= t\\\\Log_{1.017} ( \frac{50,000}{27,992} ) = t\\\\Log_{1.017} (1.7862) = t\\\\34.4 \ years = t$

Thus, by 2034 Texas per capita income would reach at least $50,000

The intercepted arc is twice as much as the intercepted angle.

Multiply the intercepted angle by 2.

110 x 2 = 220 degrees.

erika needs a test average of 85 or higher to make the honor roll there are four tests in the term her first three test grades 7

jenyasd209 [6]

First, notice that we want the average to be 85 or higher. We can write this like this:

$\mu\ge85$

where mu is the average.

We know that there are four tests, and there are already three grades: 78,80 and 88. Then if we calculate the mean we have:

$\begin{gathered} \mu=\frac{78+80+88+x}{4}=\frac{x+246}{4} \\ \Rightarrow\mu=\frac{x+246}{4} \end{gathered}$

but we already know that the average must be greater or equal than 85, then, combining both expressions we get the following:

$\begin{gathered} 85\le\mu=\frac{x+246}{4} \\ \Rightarrow\frac{x+246}{4}\ge85 \end{gathered}$

solving the inequality for x, we get:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{x+246}{4}\ge85 \\ \Rightarrow x+246\ge85\cdot4=340 \\ \Rightarrow x\ge340-246=94 \\ x\ge94 \end{gathered}$

therefore, Erika needs a score of 94 or higher in order to make the honor roll

When studying the population of flying squirrels, only a sample of flying squirrels population was measured. Why would just a sa

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

When studying a random sample of the population, you are studying one of many (generally the same) flying squirrels that live. This small selection represents the whole population, (because as said before, they are generally the same). In this way, you can assume that the small section that you picked is going to represent the entire flying squirrel population.
