Powered by AITo find the mean, add all the numbers (45, 50, 55, 60, 65) to get 275, then divide by 5 to get a mean of 55. For the median, order the numbers (they already are) and find the middle value, which is 55. There is no mode because no number appears more than once .
First find the selling price after a 10% discount: 90% of 500 is Rs. 450. The gain of 20% means the selling price is 120% of the cost price. Equation: \( 1.2 \times \text{cost price} = 450 \). Solving gives \( \text{cost price} = \frac{450}{1.2} = Rs. 375 \).
To find the square root of 324 using prime factorization, factor 324 as \( 324 = 2^2 \times 3^4 \). Group the prime factors in pairs: \( (2)\times(3^2) \). The product of these pairs, \( 2 \times 9 = 18 \), is the square root of 324 .
The interest earned is Rs. 13,200 - Rs. 12,000 = Rs. 1,200 over 2 years. Using the formula \( \text{Interest} = \frac{\text{Principal} \times \text{Rate} \times \text{Time}}{100} \), solve \( 1200 = \frac{12000 \times \text{Rate} \times 2}{100} \). Simplifying, \( \text{Rate} = 5\% \).
To simplify \( \frac{2}{3} + \frac{4}{9} - \frac{1}{6} \), find the least common denominator (LCD) for the fractions, which is 18. Convert each fraction: \( \frac{2}{3} = \frac{12}{18} \), \( \frac{4}{9} = \frac{8}{18} \), and \( \frac{1}{6} = \frac{3}{18} \). Add and subtract the numerators: \( 12 + 8 - 3 = 17 \). Thus, the expression simplifies to \( \frac{17}{18} \).
To represent \( -\frac{5}{6} \) on a number line, first divide the segment between -1 and 0 into six equal parts, as each part represents \( \frac{1}{6} \). Since \( -\frac{5}{6} \) is a negative fraction, count five parts to the left from zero. Its location is just one part short of -1 on the number line .
Perform the prime factorization of 3375: \( 3375 = 5^3 \times 3^3 \). Since all exponents are divisible by 3, 3375 is a perfect cube. The cube root is \( (5 \times 3) = 15 \).
To solve \( 5x - 3 = 2x + 9 \), first isolate terms involving x. Subtract 2x from both sides: \( 3x - 3 = 9 \). Then, add 3 to both sides to get \( 3x = 12 \). Finally, divide both sides by 3 to find \( x = 4 \).
Calculate the cube of 7 by raising it to the power of 3: \( 7^3 = 343 \). For the cube root of 512, note 512 = \( 2^9 \) which can be grouped as \( (2^3)^3 \). The cube root is thus \( 2^3 = 8 \).
To verify if 176 is a perfect square, perform prime factorization: 176 = \( 2^4 \times 11 \). A perfect square requires each prime factor to have an even exponent. The factor 11 breaks this requirement since it appears only once (odd exponent), affirming 176 is not a perfect square .
