Hey there! I'm happy to help!
There were 5 tests needed to make an average of 77. These numbers have to add up to 385 (77×5) because that is what you divide by 5 to find the average which is 77.
Now, we want to find an average of 80 with 6 numbers. We multiply 80 and 6, showing us that the sum of these 6 numbers must be 480. Since 5 of these numbers are the same as with the 77 average, we know that one test score (the one Brady needs to get) is added to 385 to give us 480.
480-385=95
Therefore, Brady needs to earn a 95% on the last test to receive a B in the class.
Answer:
C. In step 2, Cindy should have multiplied both sides of the equation by 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll go through the equation correctly, and then point out what would have happened.
3 = x/2 - 5
Add 5 to both sides. -5 and 5 cancel out.
8 = x/2
What Cindy should have done here is multiply by 2, not divide by 2. It is important to remember that you do the INVERSE operation to cancel out a number.
What would have happened here is that we have an extra step (though either way we still end up with x being 16.)
Correct Step 2:
Multiply both sides by 2. x/2 and 2x cancel out.
x = 16
Incorrect Step 2:
8/2 = (x/2)/2
4 = x/4
Multiply both sides by 4 (this would be the extra step!).
16 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of people who did the survey is 12. The number of people who read 0-2 books is 2, and the number of people who read 3-5 books is 3. Everything else is over 6. So 2+3 is 5.
Therefore, D 5/12 is the answer
