Using the mean concept, it is found that we will need 15 more points to bring up his average up to 90%.

The mean of a data-set is the <u>sum of all observations divided by the number of observations</u>.

In this problem:

  • In the first 5 observations, total of 21 out of 25 points, hence the mean for these observations is \frac{21}{25} = 0.84.
  • In the next n observations, mean of 1.

Hence, the mean is:

M = \frac{0.84(5) + n}{5 + n} = \frac{4.2 + n}{5 + n}

We want the mean to be of 0.9, thus:

M = 0.9

\frac{4.2 + n}{5 + n} = 0.9

4.2 + n = 0.9n + 4.5

0.1n = 0.3

n = \frac{0.3}{0.1}

n = 3

3 more testes are need, each worth 5 points, hence, 15 more points are needed to bring up his average up to 90%.

Hey can you please help me posted picture of question
Flauer [41]
We can determine the correct graph by finding its roots

x² - 4x - 12 = 0

x² - 6x + 2x - 12 = 0

x(x-6) +2(x-6) = 0

(x+2)(x-6) = 0

This means the roots of the function are x=-2, and x=6 and the graph will cross x axis at these two points. From the given graphs, the graph B seems to cross these points.

So the answer to this question is option B

An ice cream shop sells 6 different flavors, 4 toppings, and 3 types of cones. How many different combinations of two different
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

360 combinations

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of different combinations of 2 different flavors, 1 topping, and 1 cone, we are going to use the rule of multiplication as:

<u>               6          </u>* <u>        5             </u> * <u>            4           </u>* <u>          3             </u>= 360

       1st flavor           2nd flavor              topping              cone

Because first, we have 6 possible options for the flavor, then we only have 5 possible options for the 2nd flavor. Then, we have 4 options for the topping and finally, we have 3 options for the cone.

It means that there are 360 different combinations of two different flavors, one topping, and one cone are possible
