1. 5.6 – Solving Equations with Decimals
Z = 1.3
0.17x = -0.34
0.17x = -0.34
Z = 0.4
x = - 2
2.9 = x
1.2 = 0.3x
1.2 = 0.3x
4 = x

2. 5.6 – Solving Equations with Decimals
8x = 10x
-8x x
4.2 = 2x
4.2 = 2x
-7.4 = 2x
-7.4 = 2x
-3.7 = x

3. 5.6 – Solving Equations with Decimals
6.3 – 5x = 3(x + 2.9)
6.3 – 5x =
3x + 8.7
+5x +5x
6.3 = 8x + 8.7
6.3 = 8x + 8.7
-2.4 = 8x
-2.4 = 8x
-0.3 = x

5. Measures of Central Tendency
5.7 – Decimals – Mean, Median and Mode
Measures of Central Tendency
Mean: The average of a set of numbers.
Find the mean (average) of the values 2, 4, 5, 2, 6 3 . 8 15 4 40
The mean (average) of the values is 3.8.

6. Measures of Central Tendency
5.7 – Decimals – Mean, Median and Mode
Measures of Central Tendency
Median: The middle value of a list of numbers in numerical order.
*If the list has an odd number of items, then the median is the middle value.
*If the list has an even number of items, then the median is the mean of the two middle values.
What is the median?
26, 31, 15, 30, 18
26, 31, 15, 30, 18, 28
15, 18, 26, 30, 31
15, 18, 26, 28, 30, 31
Median is 26 27
Median is 27

7. Measures of Central Tendency
5.7 – Decimals – Mean, Median and Mode
Measures of Central Tendency
Mode: The value or values of a list of numbers that repeat the most.
14, 22, 45, 23, 45, 88, 12, 34, 45, 23, 45, 18
12, 14, 18, 22, 23, 23, 34, 45, 45, 45, 45, 88
Mode = 45
