Answer:

Option B, The mean will increase, but the median will remain the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mean value is  31.52 dollars

Median Value is 32 dollar.

Mean is the average of all the units in a given set of data. Change in any of the number will change the mean.

Here the mean is 31.25

Total money would be 31.25 * 25 = 781.25\\

A number is changed from 2 to 20 , i.e addition of 18 dollars

the new mean would be 781.25 + 18/25 = 31.97

However, the median value is the value of the unit at the center of the arrangement. Hence, it will not change.

Option B is correct

Sauron [17]
Given:
2 shapes : square and equilateral triangle
side length = 2 cm
height of equilateral triangle = 1.7 cm

Equilateral triangle means that all sides are of equal measurement.

Area of a Square = a² ⇒ (2cm)² = 4cm²
Area of an equilateral triangle = √3/4 * a² 
Area of an equilateral triangle = √3/4 * (2cm)² = 0.43 * 4cm² = 1.72 cm²

Area of the logo = 4 cm² + 1.72 cm² = 5.72 cm²

Tristan has some dimes and some quarters. He has at least 20 coins worth at most $4.25 combined. If Tristan has 10 dimes, determ
Dovator [93]

Answer:

The maximum number of quarters that he could have is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of quarters he could have. If he has 10 dimes and has at least 20 coins, then

→ x + 10 >= 20

→ x >= 10    (1)

His coins worth at most $4.25. Also, it is known that 1 dollar is equal to 100 cents, 1 dime is equal to 10 cents and 1 quarter is equal to 25 cents.

→ (x * 25) + (10 * 10)  <= (4.25 * 100)

→ 25x  + 100 <= 425

→ 25x <= 325

→ x <= 13  (2)

If we combine the equation 1 and 2:

10 <= x <= 13

The maximum value of x is 13
