Abstraction in mathematics is the process of extracting the underlying structures, patterns or properties of a mathematical concept, removing any dependence on real world objects with which it might originally have been connected, and generalizing it so that it has wider applications or matching among other abstract
Answer:
The mean of the combined group is 76.67 ≈ 77
Step-by-step explanation:
- The sum of the grades in Tom's group is 20×70 = 1400
- The sum of grades in Alice's group is 10×90=900
- The sum of gradees in the combined group is =1400+900=2300
- Then the mean grade of the combined group is

where
- 2300 is the sum of the all grades in the combined group
- 30 is the total number of people in the group
Answer:
(a). 15
(b). 78
Step-by-step explanation:
Growth of the population of a fruit fly is modeled by
N(t) = 
where t = number of days from the beginning of the experiment.
(a). For t = 0 [Initial population]
N(0) = 
= 
= 
= 15
Initial population of the fruit flies were 15.
(b).Population of the fruit fly colony on 11th day.
N(11) = 
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 77.82
≈ 78
On 11th day number of fruit flies colony were 78.
Steps:
57.68÷8
=7.21minutes per hour
(p.s. make sure they don't want you to round!)
