The mean score of 8 players in a basketball game was 14.5 points. If the highest individual score is removed, the mean score of the remaining 7 players becomes 12 points. What was the highest score? A) 20 B) 24 C) 32 D) 36

Answer:

B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

First take the equation and subtract 19 on both sides. You get x^2+8x-20=0

using the quadratic formula you get x= (-8 + or - root (8^2 -4(1)(-20)))/ 2(1)

simplify it and you get x= (-8 +or- 12) / 2  

Separate the equation into two and you get (-8 + 12) / 2    and (-8 - 12) / 2

first one gives: 4/2=2

second gives -20/2=-10

answer x=-10,2

Answer:

D. 0 < x < 20

Explanation:

Domain is in the x axis, Range lies in the y axis.

Here it is seen that function's domain lies between 0 to 20.

Here, as the circle's are open. Domain: 0 < x < 20

Additionally,

Let's take this problem step by step:

What we know:

 [tex]x+y=4\\xy=-2[/tex]

Before we solve, let's do one thing that will help us out greatly later down the road:

 [tex]x+y=4\\(x+y)^2=4^2\\x^2+2xy+y^2=16\\x^2+2(xy)+y^2=16\\x^2+2(-2)+y^2=16\\x^2+4+y^2=16\\x^2+y^2=20[/tex]<--- useful equation

Let's rearrange the problem a little bit:

 [tex]x+\frac{x^3}{y^2}+\frac{y^3}{x^2} +y=\frac{x^3}{x^2} +\frac{x^3}{y^2}+\frac{y^3}{x^2}+\frac{y^3}{y^2}[/tex]

Combine fractions of common denominators:

[tex]\frac{x^3+y^3}{x^2} +\frac{x^3+y^3}{y^2} =(x^3+y^3)*(\frac{1}{x^2}+\frac{1}{y^2} )[/tex]

Now's let factor everything apart:

 [tex](x^3+y^3)=(x+y)(x^2-xy+y^2)\\\\\frac{1}{x^2}+\frac{1}{y^2} =\frac{x^2+y^2}{x^2y^2}[/tex]

Let's use what we know and our useful equation:

 [tex](x+y)*(x^2-xy+y^2)*(\frac{x^2+y^2}{x^2y^2} )\\=4*(x^2+y^2-xy)*(\frac{20}{(xy)^2} )\\=4*(20-(-2))*\frac{20}{(-2)^2} \\=4*22*5\\=440[/tex]

The value is 440

Answer: 440

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The probability that a student earns a grade of A is 1/7.

Let E be an event and S be the sample space. The probability of E, denoted by P(E) could be computed as:

P(E) = n(E) / n(S)

As the total number of students = n(S) = 35

Students getting the grade A = n(E) = 5

So, the probability that a student earns a grade of A:

                     P(E) = n(E) / n(S)

                             = 5/35

                             = 1/7

Hence, the probability that a student earns a grade of A is 1/7.

Answer:

(i) x-intercepts: (2, 0), (6, 0)

(ii) vertex : (4, -4)

Explanation:

y = x² - 8x + 12

To find x intercepts, [set y = 0]

x-intercepts: (2, 0), (6, 0)

To find vertex:

x = -b/2a

  = -(-8)/2(1)

  = 4

y = x² - 8x + 12

  = 4² - 8(4) + 12

  = -4

Vertex : (4, -4)

Solve the equation for y=0

X inetercepts (2,0) and (6,0)

Vertex :-

x coordinate

Y coordinate

Verted at (4,-4)

The value of the x will be 25. The force involved vertically to the surface of an object per unit area is pressure.

The force applied perpendicular to the surface of an item per unit area across which that force is spread is known as pressure.

The given data in the problem is;

The base of the block of metal is a rectangle of 20 cm by x cm.

The block exerts a force of 1500 newtons on the ground. The pressure on the ground is 3 newtons/cm²

The area of the rectangle;

A = L × B

A=20 × x

[tex]\rm P = \frac{F}{A}\\\\ 3 N / cm^2 = \frac{1500 N}{20 \times x } \\\\ x= 25[/tex]

Hence the value of the x will be 25.

Answer:

Option C: 41

Step-by-step explanation:

<ABD+<CBD=90

<ABD=8x+1

<CBD=6x+5

(8x+1)+(6x+5)=90

Combine like terms

(8x+6x)+(1+5)=90

14x+6=90

14x=90-6

14x=84

divide both sides by 14

x=6

Now we plug that value into <DBC = 6x+5

6(6)+5=

36+5

41

Let's take this problem step by step:

∠ABC is 90 degrees

 ⇒ made up of two angles ⇒ ∠ABD and ∠DBC

     ⇒ in mathematical equation form:

            [tex]ABD + DBC= ABC[/tex]

Since ∠ABD = 8x + 1 and ∠DBC = 6x+5

    [tex]8x + 1+6x + 5=90\\14x+6=90\\14x=84\\x=6[/tex]

Let's plug it into ∠DBC = 6x+5

  ∠DBC = 6x+5 = 6(6)+5=41

Answer: ∠DBC = 41

The Gershwin Theatre collected the money from ticket sales of the Saturday performance would be $89180.

The unitary method is a method for solving a problem by the first value of a single unit and then finding the value by multiplying the single value.

At the Saturday matinee, 350 people attended the show.

The total number of people who watched the show on Saturday = 350

For the Saturday evening performance, 40% more people attended the performance.

350 x 40%

= 350 x 0.4

= 140

Total people will be = 350 + 140 = 490

If the average cost of tickets was $182

For 490 people = 490 x 182 = $89180

Subtraction is a mathematical operation that reflects the removal of things from a collection. The ribbon that Millie already had is 7.1 feet.

Subtraction is a mathematical operation that reflects the removal of things from a collection. The negative symbol represents subtraction.

Given Millie needs a total of 7.8 feet of ribbon for a school project. Also, She needs 0.7 more feet of ribbon. Therefore, the ribbon that Millie needs is,

Ribbon Millie had = Total Ribbon - ribbon that is needed

                              = 7.8 feet - 0.7feet

dividing the dog’s age by 8 and adding 8

D÷8  + 8

equating both

D÷4  + 6 = D÷8 + 8
