In a class of 25 students
the mean height of the 15 girls is 1.65 metres
the mean height of all 25 students is 1.682 metres.
Work out the mean height of the boys.

Answers

Answer 1
If the mean height of 15 girls is 1.65m, the sum of the girls’ heights is 15×1.65=24.75m.

If the mean height of 10 boys is x metres, the sum of the boys’ heights is 10x m.

The sum of all 25 srudents’ heights is 25×1.682=42.05m.

Therefore, 24.75+10x=42.05, x=(42.05-24.75)/10=1.73m, the mean height of the boys.
Answer 2

The mean height of the boys will be 1.73m.

What is mean?

Mean is defined as the ratio of the sum of the number of the data sets to the total number of the data.

Given that:-

In a class of 25 students, the mean height of the 15 girls is 1.65 meters the mean height of all 25 students is 1.682 meters.

If the mean height of 15 girls is 1.65m, the sum of the girls’ heights is 15×1.65 = 24.75m.

If the mean height of 10 boys is x meters, the sum of the boys’ heights is 10x m. The sum of all 25 students’ heights is

25×1.682=42.05m.

The mean height of the boys.

24.75+10x=42.05,

x =(42.05-24.75)/10

x =1.73m,

Therefore the mean height of the boys will be 1.73m.

Answer:

- 2 / 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x1 = 7

x2 = 14

y1 = 2

y2 = 0

Formula : -

Slope = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )

Slope

= ( 0 - 2 ) / ( 14 - 7 )

= - 2 / 7

[tex]slope \\ = \frac{Δy}{Δx} \\ = \frac{(4 - 2)}{(0 - 7)} \\ = \frac{2}{ - 7} \\ \\ so \: the \: slope \: is \: \frac{2}{ - 7}.[/tex]

This is the answer.

The fitness center held a weight loss competition in which 128 people participated. The amount of weight loss was normally distributed with a mean of 18 pounds and a standard deviation of 5.4 pounds. Approximately how many people lost at least 15 pounds?

Answers

Answer:

37

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample size, n = 128

Mean, μ = 18

Standard deviation, σ = 5.4

Number of people who lost atleast 15 pounds :

The Zscore = (x - μ) / (σ)

Zscore = (15 - 18) / 5.4

Zscore = - 3 / 5.4

Zscore = - 0.5555

P(Z < - 0.555) = 0.28945

Number of people who lost atleast 15 pounds :

0.28945 * 128 = 37.0496

= 37 people

Answer:

x= 6 and x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

find the two factors that when multiplied will get -12 and when summed up will get -4.

so -6 and 3

x(x-6)+2(x-6)=0

(x-6)=0 (x+2)=0

the same line
distinct parallel lines
Perpendicular lines
intersecting, but not perpendicular lines

Answers

Answer:

The same lines (answer)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations can be written in slope-intercept form y = mx + c (where 'm' is slope and 'c' is the y-intecept) as,

y-3 = 2(x-3) .......(1)        ;   y + 5 = 2(x+1) ...........(2)    

y = 2x - 6 + 3                ;  y = 2x + 2 - 5    

y = 2x -3                       ;  y = 2x - 3

Comparing with slope intercept form we have,

m1 = 2                           ; m2 = 2

c1 = -3                           ; c2 = -3

If the slopes are equal the lines are parallel and since y-intercepts are also equal means they are the same lines (overlapping)

What sum of money amount to Rs 6000 in two years at the rate of 10% per annum find it​

Answers

Answer: Rs 5000 sum of money amount to Rs 6000 in two years at the rate of 10% per annum.​

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount = Rs 6000

T = 2 year

R = 10%

So

I = A-P

so

I = PTR/100

or, A-P = (P*2*10)/100

or, 6000-P = 20P/100

or, 600000-100P = 20P

or, 600000 = 120P

or, P = 600000/120

so, P = Rs 5000

A jar is filled with 74 different colored marbles, 10 of which are red, 38 of which are blue, and 26 of which are green. A player is asked to draw a single marble from the jar and if they draw a red marble they will win $20, if they draw a blue marble they will lose $10, and if they draw a green marble they will lose $5. You may round your answer to the nearest cent

Answers

Solution :

Colored marble            Prize

     Red ----  10               20

    Blue --- 38                 10

   Green --- 26               5

P(red)  =  10/74  =  5/37

P(blue)  =  38/74  =  19/37

P( green)  = 26/74  =  13/37

Therefore,

 X      →     Red          Blue      Green

P(X)           5/37        19/37      13/37

The expected values are :

Manuel y Sara recorren cierta distancia, y los tiempos que emplean están en la razón 21 / 15 . La velocidad de Manuel es de 56km/h. ¿Cuál es la velocidad de Sara?

Answers

Answer:

The speed of Sara is 78.4 km/h.

Step- by-step explanation:

Manuel and Sara travel a certain distance, and the times they use are in the ratio 21/15. Manuel's speed is 56km / h. What is Sara's speed?

Let the distance is d.

speed of Manuel = 56 km/h

time taken by Manuel = 21 t

time taken by Sara =  15 t

Let the speed of Sara is v.

Distance = speed x time

For Manuel:

d = 56 x 21 t ..... (1)

For Sara:

d = v x 15 t ..... (2)

From (1) and (2)

56 x 21 t = v x 15 t

v = 78.4 km/h

-2d + 7 =3d = 8

-2d + 3d = 8-7

d=8-7

d=1

Answer:

[tex]d = 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Combine like terms

[tex]d - 10 - 2d + 7 = 8 + d - 10 - 3d[/tex]

[tex](d - 2d) + (-10 + 7) = (8 - 10) + (d - 3d)[/tex]

[tex]d - 3 = -2[/tex]

Step 3:  Add 3 to both sides

Which of the following accurately describes the median of a set of data? Multiple choice question. The midpoint of the data when it is arranged in order. The difference in the largest and smallest values. The most numerous observation in a set of data. The arithmetic average of the values in the set.

Answers

Answer:

The midpoint of the data when it is arranged in order.

Step-by-step explanation:

Median can be described as the number that occurs in the middle of a set of numbers that are arranged either in ascending or descending order

For example, the median of the following set of numbers is 5

1, 2, 5, 10, 20

Range is the difference between the highest and lowest values of a set of observations

Range = highest value - lowest value

Mean is the average of a set of numbers. It is determined by adding the numbers together and dividing it by the total number

Mean = sum of the numbers / total number
