Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
6x + 7 = 9x - 2
-3x = -9
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 8 + 9 + 9 / total of numbers or 10 = 65 ÷ 10 = 6.5 This is the mean.
3 - 6.5 = 3.5
4 - 6.5 = 2.5
5 - 6.5 = 1.5
6 - 6.5 = 0.5
6 - 6.5 = 0.5
7 - 6.5 = 0.5
8 - 0.5 = 7.5
8 - 0.5 = 7.5
9 - 0.5 = 8.5
9 - 0.5 = 8.5
MAD = 1.7
So since there is a mixed number, 8 means there are 8 one-hundreds and 23 remaining ones. So, 800+23=823 ones. 823/100 as an improper fraction. since it is already out of 100, your job is easy. you now divide 823 by 100 (move the decimal over to the left 2 places) and you get 8.23 as a decimal. Hope i helped!!
Answer:
(a) b = (4/7)c
(b) Bill: 40 shingles/hour; Chip: 70 shingles/hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b and c represent Bill's and Chip's rates in shingles per hour, respectively. Then we have ...
7b = 4c
c - b = 30 . . . . shingles per hour difference in rates
(a) Bill's rate in terms of Chip's rate can be found by dividing the first equation by 7
b = (4/7)c . . . . . Bill's rate is 4/7 of Chip's rate
__
(b) To find the rates, we can multiply the second equation by 7 and substitute using the first equation:
7c -7b = 210
7c -4c = 210
c = 210/3 = 70
b = (4/7)(70) = 40
Bill's rate is 40 shingles per hour; Chip's rate is 70 shingles per hour.
20/10 is same as 20:10 so the whole number is 2
