Answer:
a) $40920
b) $38500
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
5 employees,
Mean = $40300
Median = $38500
Min = $32000
If he lowest paid employee gets a $3100 raise, then his salary becomes
$32000+$3100=$35100
a) If the mean was $40300, then the sum of 5 salaries is

After raising the lowest salary the sum becomes

and new mean is

b) The lowest salary becomes $35100. It is still smaller than the median, so the new median is the same as the old one.
New median = $38500
In this exact order:
5+1.75x=y
Sorry for the wait..Hope this helps
Answer:
3rd triangle can be constructed with dimensions 2,6,7.
Step-by-step explanation:
sum of any two sides > third side.
difference of any two sides < third side
1.
8+5=13 not >14 (no triangle.)
2.
7+8=15 not >15 (no triangle)
3.
2+6=8>7
2+7=9>6
7+6=13>2
7-2=5<6
7-6=1<2
6-2=4<7
so it is a triangle.
4.
6+3=9 not >10 (not a triangle)
Answer:
4 - ( 3x - 8 ) = 21
break the bracket first ,it gives : 4 - 3x + 8 = 21
12 - 3x = 21
- 3x = 21 - 12
- 3x = 9
-x = 9/3
-x = 3
X = - 3
[ check if the answer is correct, put -3 instead of X in the above equation ! we get 4 - { 3(-3) - 8 } = 21
4 - { - 9 - 8 } = 21
4 - { - 17 } = 21
break the bracket, minus and minus will multiply and will become plus , so we have 4 + 17 = 21 , hence 21 = 21 ! therefore X = -3
