Answer:
a) 3x - 11
b) 10x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The negative sign before the (x+5) means to subtract those values. Reverse the signs. Then combine like terms:
4x –6 –x –5. 4x–x–6–5
3x –11
b) Put all the x terms together.
Put all the integers together.
Add. Adding a negative is the same as subtracting.
4x+x+5x = 10x
+6-2 = 4
Combine them:
10x + 4

To work out the mean of a data set add all the numbers together and divide them by the number of data items there are.
18 + 14 + 8 + 22 + 25 + 8 = 95
95/6 = 15.8 (that answer is rounded)
Answer:
Samuel slept for 1/4 of the distance.
Step-by-step explanation:
The information provided are:
- Samuel fell asleep halfway home.
- He didn't wake up until he still had half as far to go as he had already
- gone while asleep.
Consider that the total distance covered was 1.
Then from the first point we know that Samuel fell asleep after covering a distance of 1/2.
It is provided that he woke up only after covering half of the remaining distance.
That is, he slept for 1/4 of the remaining distance.
Thus, Samuel was asleep for 1/4th of the entire trip home.
