Answer:

  Mark must score at least 11 points to have an average of 10 points per game.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of a set of data is its sum, divided by the number of data points in the set. If p is the number of points Mark scores in his next game, and he wants his average at least 10, then the relation is ...

  (12 +14 +10 +8 +5 +p)/6 ≥ 10

  49 +p ≥ 60 . . . . . . . . . multiply by 6 and simplify

  p ≥ 11 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 49

Mark must score at least 11 points in the next game to average at least 10 points per game.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Sometimes, it is convenient to work with the average directly. Relative to the average Mark wants (10), his scores so far are +2, +4, 0, -2, -5, for a total of -1. In order to bring the average to the value Mark wants, he must bring this total to 0 or higher. That is, he must score at least 10+1 = 11 points in his next game.

If u(x)=-2x^2+3 and v(x)=1/x what is the range of (u*v)(x) **the picture should help
nasty-shy [4]
We have that
u(x)=-2 x^{2} +3 \\ \\ v(x)= \frac{1}{x}
u(v(x))=u( \frac{1}{x})=-2( \frac{1}{x} )^{2}  +3 \\ u( \frac{1}{x})= \frac{(3 x^{2} -2)}{ x^{2} }

using a graph tool
see the attached figure

The horizontal asymptote of this function is at <span>y=3</span><span>.
So,
the range of this function is from </span><span>(−∞,3<span>)</span></span>
