Answer:

- 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Average is calculated as

average = \frac{total}{count}

Thus for the given 10 numbers we have

\frac{total}{10} = - 5 ( multiply both sides by 10 )

total = - 50

let the number added be x, then

\frac{total+x}{11} = - 6 ( multiply both sides by 11 )

total + x = - 66, that is

- 50 + x = - 66 ( add 50 to both sides )

x = - 16

The new number is - 16

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The cost of a box of crackers is $2.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a containers of yogurt is $x and cost of a box of crackers is $y.

It is given that Mandy can buy 4 containers of yogurt and 3 boxes of crackers for $9.55.

4x+3y=9.55              .... (1)

She can buy 2 containers of yogurt and 2 boxes of crackers for $5.90.

2x+2y=5.90              .... (2)

On solving (1) and (2), using graphing calculator, we get

x=0.7

y=2.25

Therefore the cost of a box of crackers is $2.25.

The shape is composed of three squares and two semicircles.Select all the expressions that correctly calculate the perimeter of
lidiya [134]

Answer:

100+20π

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached.

Perimeter of a square =4L

L is the side length of a square

From the diagram;

L = 10

Perimeter of a square = 4(10) = 40

Perimeter of 3 squares = 3(40) = 120

2 semi circle = a circle

Perimeter of a circle= 2πr

radius of the Circle = length of a side of the square.

Area of the circle = 2π(10)= 20π

Perimeter of the shape = Perimeter of the two semicircle + area of the 4squares = 100+20π

the number of calories consumed at snack varies directly with the number of cookies eaten. if mandy eats 3 cookies, she will con
Nostrana [21]

She will consume 400 calories if she eats 5 cookies.


3 cookies = 240 cal.

In order to solve for 5 cal. you need to find the unit rate first, divide both numbers by 3

3/3 = 1 

240/3 = 80

Now we know that 1 cookie = 80 cal.


5 cookies;

80 * 5 = 400 cal.
