The following are the ages (years) of 5 people in a room: 21, 24, 18, 15, 15
A person enters the room.
The mean age of the 6 people is now 16.
What is the age of the person who entered the room?

3 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

( 21 + 24 + 18 + 15 + 15 + x ) / 6 = 16

93 + x = 96

x = 3

The person who entered the room is 3 years old.

3 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

x= age of the person who entered the room

The sum of 21,+ 24,+ 18,+ 15,+ 15 = 93

(93+x )     divided into 6 = 16

Multiply both sides by 6

93+x = 96

x=3

 93+3= 96

96/6 = 16

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
