Suppose ten distinct, positive integers have a median of 10. ("Distinct integers" means that no two integers are the same.)

What is the smallest the average of those ten integers could be?

Explain your answer in complete sentences.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we want to minimize the average, the integers should be made as small as possible. So, we have 4 integers:

1, 2, 3, 4

However, the median must be 10. The next two integers must have an average of 10 - and since the integers are distinct, we should use:

9, 11

From there, we use the smallest integers (that are still above 11) possible:

12, 13, 14, 15

The average of these 10 integers is 84/10, or 8.4.

The median is still 10, because (9+11)/2 is 10.

Answer 2

Answer:

8 (or 8.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the problem states the words: Distinct and positive.

That means that the smallest number we can use is 0.

We can make 10 blanks for 10 numbers for us to fill in.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Since 10 is an even number, and the median is not one single number, it will be the middle of the two numbers.

In this case, our two numbers are the 5th and 6th blank.

Any two numbers can be used, as long as they are the same actual value from 10.

Let us first put in the numbers we can, which are the numbers before the two middle blanks.

0,1,2,3, _ _ _ _ _ _

To find the median between two numbers, we can do:

(a+b) divided by 2 = median

We can use the smallest following number, 4. Then the 6th number will have to be 16 for 10 to be in the middle.

Also try the largest possible number for the 5th blank, 9. Then the 6th number will be 11.

4+16 and 9+11 both equal 20, and 20 divided by 2 is 10. So both of these work.

Now let's place the other numbers in for these two equations.

0,1,2,3,4,16,17,18,19,20

0,1,2,3,9,11,12,13,14,15

If we add the numbers of each together, we get:

0,1,2,3,4,16,17,18,19,20=100

0,1,2,3,9,11,12,13,14,15= 80

If we now divide each sum by 10 (to find the average) we get:

10

8

Since both of these were the most we could go, one with the 5th number as small as possible and one with the 5th number as large as possible.

Since the smaller answer we got was 8, the answer must be 8.

(I believe 0 is a positive integer because it doesn't carry a negative sign. If 0 is not a positive integer, the answer is 8.4. Use the same process

Answer:

AB= 2√137 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

because we have a right triangle we apply the Pythagorean theorem

hypothenuse² = side² + side²

AB² = BC² + AC², substitute the given sides BC=8 and AC=22

AB² = 8² + 22² , square the numbers and apply the square root to both side

AB = √(64 + 484), add the numbers

AB = √548, simplify the square root

AB= 2√137 cm

Describe how you would determine the x-intercepts from the factored form of a quadratic equation

Answers

Answer:

Please check explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the factored form, all we have to do is to equate each of the factor to zero, then solve for x

The particular value of x represents the solution that shows the value of the x-intercept

for example

In a case of a quadratic equation where we have

(x-a)(x-b) = 0

Then we can have

(x-a) = 0 or ((x-b) = 0

Then we have x = a or x = b

a and b are the x intercepts in this case

If 40% of a number is equal to two-third of another number, what is the ratio of the first number to the second number.?

Answers

Answer:

5:3

Step-by-step explanation:

40% = 2/5

If the numbers are x and y, then

2/5 x = 2/3 y

Divide both sides by 2/5

x  = (2/3 * 5/2)y

x = 10/6 y

x = 5/3  y

So the required ratio is 5 : 3.

Checking this result:

10% of 5 = 2

2/3 of 3 = 2 also.

Find the size of one interior angle of a regular 10-sided polygon.

Interior angle and exterior angles are supplementary.

Interior angle + 36 = 180

Interior angle = 180 - 36

What is subtraction?

To subtract in mathematics is to take something away from a group or a number of objects.

In another meaning subtraction is a mathematical operation such that two values are going to subtract and give a resultant value.

The group's total number of items decreases or becomes lower when we subtract from it.

Given that sell of CDs in 1993 is 2.3 × 10⁶.

Sell of CDs in 2001 is 7.9 × 10⁷.

The difference between sell is = 7.9 × 10⁷ - 2.3 × 10⁶

76.7 × 10⁵ hence it will the correct option.

Answers

Answer:

y = -3x^2 + 4

Look below for more information

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x^2 - 4

Everything is wrong about this answer. The slope is actually a negative and the y-intercept is suppose to be a positive

y = -3x^2 - 4

Only the y-intercept is wrong here because the graph is going 4 units up instead of 4 units down

y = -3x^2 + 4

This is the correct answer! The slole is negative and the y-intercept is a positive

y = 3x^2 + 4

The slope is wrong but the y-intercept is correct!

Therefore, our answer is the third option: y = -3x^2 + 4

The length L of the base of a rectangle is 5 less than twice its height H. Write the algebraic expression to model the area of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer: 2H^2 - 5H

Explanation:
1. L = 2H - 5
2. Area of a rectangle is length (L) times height (H), so in this case, it would be (H) x (2H - 5)
3. Multiply H by everything in the parenthesis
4. You should get 2H^2 - 5H

The length L of the base of a rectangle is 5 less than twice its height H. Then the algebraic expression be, area of rectangle = 2H² - 5H.

What is the algebraic expression to model the area of the rectangle?

Let, the given information be "The length L of the base of a rectangle is 5 less than twice its height H".

L be the length of the rectangle

H be the height of the rectangle

By converting the given information into an algebraic expression, we get

Length = 2H - 5

The area of a rectangle is given by the formula;

Area of rectangle = L [tex]*[/tex] H

Where L is the Length.

H is the Height.

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

Area of rectangle = (2H - 5) [tex]*[/tex] H

Area of rectangle = 2H² - 5H

Therefore, the area of rectangle = 2H² - 5H.
