The mean (average) weight of three boys is 40 pounds. One of the boys weighs 50 pounds. The other two boys have the same weight. Find weight of each of the boys?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The weights are 50 lb, 35 lb, and 35 lb.

Step-by-step explanation:

The three boys weight x, y, and z pounds.

One boy weighs 50 lb, so x = 50. The other 2 boys have the same weight, so y = z.

The average weight is the sum of the three weights divided by 3.

(x + y + z)/3 = 40

(50 + y + y)/3 = 40

2y + 50 = 120

2y = 70

y = 35

z = y = 35

Answer: The weights are 50 lb, 35 lb, and 35 lb.

Answer 2

Answer: 35 lb, 35 lb, and 40 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

(50+X+X)/3 = 40

50 + 2X = (40)(3)

2X = 120 - 50

X = 70/2

X = 35

Determine the 3 digit chopping and rounding approximately of the number 0.9

Answers

Answer:

We want to "chop and round" the periodic number 0.9 at 3 digits.

First, remember that we can write our periodic number as:

0.9 = 0.9999...

Such that the nine repeats infinitely.

Now we want to chop it at the third digit, and then round.

To chop at the third digit we just "cut" the number at the third digit after the decimal point, we will get:

0.9 ≈ 0.999

Now we round.

Remember that to round a number, we need to look at the last digit after the decimal point.

If the last digit is 5 or larger, we round up, adding 1 to the previous decimal.

If the last digit is 4 or smaller, we round down, don't adding anything to the previous decimal.

in our number:

0.999

The last digit is a 9, so we round up.

Then we add "1" to the previous decimal

but the previous decimal is a 9, so when we add 1, it will transform into a 10.

So it also adds one to the previous decimal, which also is a 9, so the process repeats, this time adding 1 to the decimal to its left, in this case, that decimal will be the first decimal at the left of the decimal point.

So after rounding, we will get:

0.999 ≈ 1

Then we can conclude that:

he 3 digit chopping and rounding approximately of the number 0.9 is 1"

A student correctly evaluated an expression with P = -2 and a = 3 and got 3 as the result. Which of the following expressions could she have been evaluating

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

A student correctly evaluated an expression where p = -2 and q = 3 and acquired 3 as the result.

And we want to determine which expression could the student have been evaluating.

Thus, we simply need to check each expression by letting p = -2 and q = 3 and see which one equals 3.

Checking the first one:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} 3p^2 +2pq - 6q +2 &= 3(-2)^2+2(-2)(3)-6(3) + 2\\ &= (12)+(-12) +(-18) + 2 \\ &=-16\end{aligned}[/tex]

The result is not 3. Hence, A is not correct.

The second expression:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} p^3 + 2p^2q-p^2+2pq+q &= (-2)^3+2(-2)^2(3)-(-2)^2+2(-2)(3)+(3)\\ &= (-8)+(24)-(4)+(-12)+(3) \\ &= 3\stackrel{\checkmark}{=}3\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, we can conclude that our answer is B.

We can check the other two regardless.

The third expression:

[tex]\begin{aligned} p^2+q-4q^2 &= (-2)^2 + (3) - 4(3)^2 \\ &= (4) + (3) -(36) \\ &= -29\end{aligned}[/tex]

And the fourth:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} p^2+3q^2-q^2+p &= (-2)^2+3(3)^2-(3)^2+(-2) \\ &= (4) + (27) - (9) + (-2) \\ &= 20\end{aligned}[/tex]

Thus, neither the third expression nor the fourth is also correct.

In conclusion, our answer is B.

2x - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] x = 10 ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )

6x - x = 30

Consider the following sequence: -5, -1, 3,...
a. Is this sequence a arithmetic or geometric? How can you tell?

b. Is 119 a term in this sequence? If so, what term is it? If not, why not? Explain completely.​

Answers

Answer:

a. it is arithmentic - this is because for each term there is a constant increase of 4, and the change between each term doesn't change

b. you need to find the nth term, by using the equation difference x n + 0th term: the difference is (+)4 and the 0th term is -9 (-5 is the 1st term, so to go one back we subtract 4 - the inverse operation), so the nth term is 4n -9. Now we do the inverse operation on 119 to see if it's a term (it is a term if it's an integer. So, first we do 119 plus 9 (inverse of - 9) to get 128, then divide it by 4 rather than multiplying. This gives us 32, and that tells us that 119 is the 32nd term of the sequence.

Can anybody help this question?

Answers

Answer:

the first option

Step-by-step explanation:

really, just look at the table.

is the mean value (10.4) larger than the median (13.4) ?

I hope you can see right away that it is not.

and you can see they are not the same either.

so, all the answer options mentioning mean larger than median or equal to median can be ruled out right away.

so, it is between the first two options.

now think ! how do we draw number lines ? a coordinate axis ?

the smaller numbers left, the larger numbers right. the numbers grow from left to right.

the mean value is simply the sum of all measurements divided by the number of measurements (how many median were done). if that is smaller that the median (so, the Mean is left of the Median), it means that the majority of measurements had a result smaller (to the left) than the Median. so, it is skewed-left.

b) The price of a radio is marked as Rs 7,500. If the shopkeeper allows 20 % discount and adds 13 % VAT, how much will a customer pay for the radio?​

Answers

Answer:

the customer should pay Rs.6780 including VAT.

Step-by-step explanation:

here,

Marked price(MP)=7500

Discount(D)=20%

VAT=13%

now,

selling price(SP)=MP-D%of MP

=7500-20×7500/100

= 7500-1500

= Rs 6000

again,

SP with VAT = SP +VAT of SP

= 6000+13×6000/100

=6000+780

=Rs.6780

hence,

the customer should pay Rs. 6780 including VAT.
