Jane has a average score of 73% on three quizzes. What must she score on the next quiz to have an average of 78%?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

93

Step-by-step explanation:

The average is calculated as

average = (sum)/(count)

On 3 quizzes

(sum)/(3) = 73 ( multiply both sides by 3 )

sum = 219

On 4 quizzes, letting x be the score on fourth test

(sum+x)/(4) = 78 ( multiply both sides by 4 )

sum + x = 312 , that is

219 + x = 312 ( subtract 219 from both sides )

x = 93

She must score 93 on the next quiz

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (5, 4) and (5, -5)

Answers

Answer:

NO Slope

Step-by-step explanation:

slope of the line passing through the points (5, 4) and (5, -5)

slope = y2 - y1   =    -5 - 4   = -9

            x2 - x1           5 - 5          0

see attached.

in this graph of a line x = 5, no matter what the value of y is.

the horizontal change is 0 and the vertical change is any y value

therefore, there is NO Slope
