Three boxes of supplies have an average (arithmetic mean) weight of 7 kilograms and a median weight of 9 kilograms. What is the maximum possible weight, in kilograms, of the lightest box

3

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 1

(B) 2

(C) 3

(D) 4

(E) 5

Mean is a measure of central tendency. It is the average of a set of numbers. It is determined by adding the numbers together and dividing it by the total number

Mean = sum of numbers / number of observation

sum of numbers = 3 x 7 = 21

Median is the number that is at the center or middle of a set of obervations

x +  9+ y = 21

x= lowest number

y = highest number

x + y = 21 - 9

x + y = 12

If x = 1 y = 11

if x = 2 y = 10

if x = 3 y = 9

if x = 4 y = 8

the first 3 are plausible and the median would still be 9 if x = 4, median would be 8

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.

is only a line? i think so
