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

Answers

Answer 1

The highest score is 32.

What is mean?

The mean refers to the average of a set of values.

Total players = 8

Mean= 14.5

Now, total score of 8 players,

= 14.5*8

=116

and, Total score for the remaining 7 players

= 12 * 7

= 84

Hence, the highest score is 116-84 =32

Find the x-intercept(s) and the coordinates of the vertex for the parabola y= x^2 -8x + 12. if there is more than one x-intercept, separate them with commas.

Answers

Answer:

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

(ii) vertex : (4, -4)

Explanation:

y = x² - 8x + 12

To find x intercepts, [set y = 0]

x² - 8x + 12 = 0x² - 2x - 6x + 12 = 0x(x - 2) - 6(x - 2) = 0(x - 6)(x - 2) = 0x = 6, x = 2

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

x²-8x+12=0x²-6x-2x+12=0x(x-6)-2(x-6)=0(x-2)(x-6)=0x=2,6

Answers

g(5) = 2(5)-5=5
h(2)=4(2)+5=13

So, g(5)+h(2)=13+5=18.

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute x = 5 into g(x) and x = 2 into h(x)

g(5) + h(2)

= 2(5) - 5 + 4(2) + 5

The dog is 16 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

X/4 + 6 = X/8 + 8

X/4-X/8 = 8-6

0.125X = 2

X = 2/0.125

X = 16

Answer:

16 years old

Step-by-step explanation

Dividing the dog’s age by 4 and adding 6

D÷4  + 6

dividing the dog’s age by 8 and adding 8

D÷8  + 8

equating both

D÷4  + 6 = D÷8 + 8

=> D÷4 - D÷8  = 2

multiplying by 8 both sides

=> 2D - D = 16

=> D = 16

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]

Combine like terms

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

Answers

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.

The figure shows part of the concrete slab which is used to make drains and its cross-section. it is made up of a cuboid of dimensions 120 cm by 60 cm by 40 cm, with a half-cylinder horizontally carved out of it.

(i) find the area of the cross-section ABCDEFG.
(ii) find the volume of the concrete slab.
(iii) find the total surface area of the concrete slab.
(iv) find the mass of the concrete slab if the density of concrete is 2300 kg/cubic m, giving your answer in kg.

Answers

(i) The area of the cross section ABCDEFG is 1771.6cm³

(ii) The volume of the concrete lab is 212592 cm³

(iii) the total surface area of the concrete slab is 30284 cm²

(iv) The mass of the concrete slab is 40746.8 kg/m³.

Given, dimensions are 120 cm by 60 cm by

40 cm.

(i) area of cross section = 40 × 60 ₋ π(60 ₋10 ₋ 10)/2 . 1/2

                                     = 1771.6 cm³

(ii) the volume of the concrete slab = 40 × 60 × 120 ₋ 1/2 π((60 ₋ 10   ₋10)/2)² . 120

= 212592 cm³

(iii) The total surface area is:

=40 × 120 × 2 ₊ 60 × 120 ₊ 1771.6 × 2 ₊ 10 × 120 × 2 ₊ 1/2 π(60 ₋ 10 ₋10) × 120

= 30284 cm²

(iv) Mass of the concrete slab given density is 2300 kg/m³

Mass = Volume × density

Mass = 17.716 m³ ×  2300

         = 40746.8 kg/m³

Hence we get the mass as 40746.8 kg/m³.

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
