Souta wants to compare the mean of his test scores in French class to the mean absolute deviation. Language Test Scores

French Scores

76

62

94

80

He uses the steps below to find both the mean and mean absolute deviation.

French Scores

Step 1
Add the scores.
76 + 62 + 94 + 80 = 312

Step 2
Divide the sum of the scores by 4.
312 divided by 4 = 78

Step 3
Add the differences between the mean and each score.
(76 minus 78) + (62 minus 78) + (94 minus 78) + (80 minus 78) = 0
Step 4 Divide by 4.
StartFraction 0 over 4 EndFraction = 0

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.
