The mean of five numbers in a set is 12. If the set contains a total of six numbers and the mean of all six is
14, which of the following is the sixth number?
(1) 24
(3) 32
(2) 13
(4) 18

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:   24  (choice 1)

=========================================================

Explanation:

The process of finding the arithmetic mean involves two steps

add up all the numbersdivide by n, which is the number of values in the set

The first bit of info your teacher gave you is "the mean of five numbers in a set is 12". While we don't know the actual individual values themselves, we know that they must add to some variable y. Dividing y over n gets us the mean

y/n = mean

y/5 = 12

y = 5*12

y = 60

The five values add to 60.

----------

The next bit of info is that "the mean of all six is 14". That allows us to say:

(sum of all 6 values)/6 = mean

(sum of all 6 values)/6 = 14

( (sum of 5 values) + (6th value) )/6 = 14

(y + x)/6 = 14

(60 + x)/6 = 14

where x is the 6th number we want to find.

-----------

Solve for x

(60 + x)/6 = 14

60+x = 6*14

60+x = 84

x = 84-60

x = 24 so choice (1) is the answer

An airplane flying into a headwind travels the -mile flying distance between Indianapolis, Indiana, and Phoenix, Arizona, in hours. On the return flight, the airplane travels this distance in hours and minutes. Find the airspeed of the plane and the speed of the wind, assuming that both remain constant.

Answers

Answer:

the airspeed of the plane = 660 miles/hr

the speed of the wind = 60 miles/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

The values are missing in the given information in the question.

To able to solve this question, we will make some assumptions.

Let's assume that:

The airplane heading into the wind travels 1800 miles in 3 hours.

While returning via the same distance, it travels 2 hours 30 minutes.

We are to determine the plane's airspeed as well as the wind speed.

First, let us say that the speed of the plane is p and the wind speed is q

during the time the plane is traveling for 1800 miles in 3 hrs.

Then, we can say

3p -3q = 1800 ----- (1)

However, in  2hours 30 minutes, we have 2.5 hours

So, when the plane is returning, we have the following equation:

2.5p + 2.5q = 1800 ---- (2)

So, to find p and q, we can use the elimination method.

Simply by multiplying equation (1) with 5 and equation (2) with 6

 (5)3p    -  (5)3q     = (5) 1800

 (6)2.5p  + (6)2.5q = (6) 1800            

  15p -  15q  = 9000

+

 15p + 15q   = 10800      

 30p -  0     = 19800      

30p = 19800

p = 19800/30

p = 660

Since p = 660, then from equation (1) we can obtain the value of q:

So; Using equation (1):

3p -3q = 1800

3(660) - 3q = 1800

1980 - 3q = 1800

-3q = 1800 - 1980

-3q = -180

q = 180/3

q = 60

Therefore, the airspeed of the plane = 660 miles/hr

the speed of the wind = 60 miles/hr

If a spinner for a game is spun once, there is a 25% chance it will land on
orange. What is the chance that the spinner will not land on orange on both
the first and second spin in a game? Calculate the probability as a decimal
rounded to the nearest TENTH.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Pr = 0.6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

[tex]O \to Orange[/tex]

So:

[tex]P(O) = 25\%[/tex] --- probability of O

[tex]n=2[/tex] --- Number of spin

Using the complement rule, the probability that a spin will not land on orange is:

[tex]P(O') = 1 - P(O)[/tex]

[tex]P(O') = 1 - 25\%[/tex]

Express as decimal

[tex]P(O') = 1 - 0.25[/tex]

[tex]P(O') = 0.75[/tex]

On two spins, the probability that it will not land on orange is:

[tex]Pr = P(O') * P(O')[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Pr = 0.75* 0.75[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 0.5625[/tex]

[tex]Pr = 0.6[/tex] --- approximated

1.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

My hose = 3 hours ; my rate = 1/3

Let My friend's time = x ; his rate = 1/x

Answer:   3%

Most likely, you won't need to type in the percent symbol since that seems to be already done for you.

=========================================================

Explanation:

The outcome "2" shows up 3 times, as shown in the first column. Let A = 3.

Add up all the values in the bottom row: 3+6+8+11+14+16+15+12+9+5+1 = 100. Let B = 100. This is the total number of dice rolls.

Dividing the two values gets us A/B = 3/100 = 0.03 = 3%

The value "2" shows up 3% of the time, which is the experimental probability of getting a "2".

Hi there I hope you are having an great day :) There are 4 oranges, 7 bananas, and 5 apples in a fruit basket. Mansour selects a piece of fruit at random and then  Mahmoud selects a piece of fruit at random. Find the probability that two apples are chose. (5/16)*(4/15) Mya selects a fruit and you want it to be an apple so that is 5 apples out of 16 fruits total. After Mya selects one fruit and it is an apple, there is one less fruit and apple. So 5-1/16-1. Since the is also in one case, not two separate ones, you multiply the two fractions so (5/16)*(4/15).

In the circle shown, secants PE and PF have been drawn such that arc CE = 82, arc DF=98 and the ratio of arc CD to arc EF is 2:7. Determine the measure of angle P. Show how you arrived at your answer.

Answers

Answer:

m<P = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Arc CE = 82°

Arc DF = 98°

Ratio of arc CD to Arc EF = 2:7

Thus, let,

Arc CD = 2x

Arc EF = 7x

A full circle = 360°

Therefore,

Arc CE + Arc DF + Arc CD + Arc EF = 360°

Substitute

82° + 98° + 2x + 7x = 360°

Add like terms

180° + 9x = 360°

Subtract 180° from both sides

180° + 9x - 180° = 360° - 180°

9x = 180°

Divide both sides by 9

9x/9 = 180/9

x = 20

✔️Arc CD = 2x

Plug in the value of x

Arc CD = 2(20) = 40°

Arc EF = 7x = 7(20) = 140°

✔️Find m<P:

Recall: the measure of the external angle created when two secants intersect = half the difference of the major and minor arcs that are intercepted

Thus:

m<P = ½(arc EF - arc CD)

Substitute

m<P = ½(140° - 40°)

m<P = ½(100°)

m<P = 50°

The rational root of the function  f(x) = x³ - 3x² + 2 is - 1.

What is a polynomial?

A polynomial is an algebraic expression.

A polynomial of degree n in variable x can be written as,

a₀xⁿ + a₁xⁿ⁻¹ + a₂xⁿ⁻² +...+ aₙ.

Given, A polynomial function of degree three f(x) = x³ - 3x² + 2.

Now, The roots of the function is when f(a) = 0.

The last term is, 2, Hence the roots must be,

± 1, ± 2, The factors of 2.

f(-1) = - 2.

f(1) = 0.

f(-2) = - 18.

f(2) = - 2.

So, The only rational root is x = - 1 and the other roots are irrational and can be obtained by the obtained quadratic equation after factoring or by long division.

Answer:

Breadth = 14 cm

Perimeter = 65 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = [tex]18.5cm[/tex]

       Therefore, breadth = area / length

        Breath = 259 / 185 = 1.4 * 10 = 14 cm

Perimeter = 2 * (l + b)
