cm find the height of new pupils ​

Sagot :

Answer:

228 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the average is calculated as

average = [tex]\frac{sum}{count}[/tex] , then

[tex]\frac{sum}{10}[/tex] = 140 ( multiply both sides by 10 to clear the fraction )

sum = 1400

let the height of new pupil be x , then

[tex]\frac{sum+x}{11}[/tex] = 148 ( multiply both sides by 11 )

sum + x = 1628 , that is

1400 + x = 1628 ( subtract 1400 from both sides )

x = 228

height of new pupil is 228 cm
