Answer:
You can use a number line to subtract -6 from -7. The difference is -1.
Given:
The given sets are:
Set a : 200, 104, 100, 160.
Set b: 270, 400, 483, 300, x.
Mean of set a: mean of set b= 3:8
To find:
The value of x.
Solution:
Formula for mean:
The mean of set of a is:
The mean of set of b is:
It is given that,
Mean of set a: mean of set b= 3:8
Isolate the variable x.
Divide both sides by 3.
Therefore, the value of x is 427.
We conclude that after 50 days, there will be 67 lily pads.
<h3>how many will there be after 50 days?</h3>
We know that the number increases by 25% every 10 days.
In 50 days we have 5 groups of 10 days, so there will be five increases of 25%.
We know that the initial number is 22 lily pads, if we apply five consecutive increases of the 25% we get:
N = 22*(1 + 25%/100)*...*(1 + 25%/100%)
( the factor (1 + 25%/100%) appears five times)
So we can rewrite:
N = 22*(1 + 25%/100%)⁵
N = 22*(1 + 0.25)⁵ = 67.1
Which can be rounded to the nearest whole number, which is 67.
So we conclude that after 50 days, there will be 67 lily pads.
