Answer:

The median is 26

Step-by-step explanation:

A "median" is equivalent to, when the terms are arranged in the proper order, whichever term is in the "middle".

So- first, arrange the terms in ascending order.

[22, 22, 23, 23, 29, 29, 29, 31]

There are an even number- eight- terms in total, so we will take the average of the two "middle" terms.

(29+23)/2; 29 and 23 are the "middle" terms, and there are two of them.

(52)/2 = 26

Therefore, the median is 26.

I hope this helped! :)

Simplify 4/(√5+ √2) - 3/(√5- √2)

MakcuM [25]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{4}{ \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{2}} - \frac{3}{ \sqrt{5} - \sqrt{2} } = \\ = \frac{4( \sqrt{5} - \sqrt{2} ) - 3( \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{2} ) }{( \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{2} )\times ( \sqrt{5} - \sqrt{2} )} = \\ = \frac{4 \sqrt{5} - 4 \sqrt{2} - 3 \sqrt{5} - 3 \sqrt{2} }{5 - \sqrt{10} + \sqrt{10} - 2 } = \\ = \frac{ \sqrt{5} - 7 \sqrt{2} }{3}$

Y=2x+6 and y=-3x+16 for solving the system

Butoxors [25]

Substitution

Step 1: Solve for x or y in either of the two equations. In the equations that you are given, y is already solved for you.

Step 2: Plug in 2x + 6 into the opposite equation.

2x + 6 = -3x + 16
   - 6 - 6
------------------------------
2x = -3x + 10
+ 3x + 3x
------------------------------
5x = 10
------   ------
5    5

x = 2

Step 3: Plug in the x value into either equation.

y = 2(2) + 6
y = 4 + 6
y = 10

The final answer gets expressed as a coordinate pair: (x,y) (2,10)

I hope this helps you :)
