Answer:

19.2

Step-by-step explanation:

You get the mean of a set of numbers by adding them and dividing the sum by how many numbers there are. In this case, you don't know what the individual 8 numbers are, but you can find out what they add up to.

Mean = (sum) / 8

17 = (sum) / 8

17 x 8 = sum

136 = sum

Now take out the numbers 9, 11, 20, which reduces the sum by 40. There are 5 numbers left and they add up to 136 - 40 = 96.

The new mean is 96 / 5 = 19.2

Answer:

$y = 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

This answer is easily found using the Pythagorean Theorem:

${a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2}$

where A and B are the legs, and C is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

${(16)}^{2} + {(6y)}^{2} = {(10y)}^{2} \\ 256 + 36{y}^{2} = 100 {y}^{2} \\ 256 = 64 {y}^{2} \\ \sqrt{256} = \sqrt{64 {y}^{2}} \\ 16 = 8y \\ y = 2$
