there are about 5 more students in each class at oak middle school than at poplar middle school.

"There are about 2 more students in each class at Oak Middle School than at Poplar Middle School."

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to compute the mean for each.

Poplar Middle School:

Lets list the numbers

20,20,20,21,21,21,21,21,22,22,22,22,22,22,22,23,23,23,23,24

The average is sum of all divided by number of numbers, that will be:

435/20 = 21.75

Oak Middle School:

The numbers are:

20,21,21,22,22,23,23,23,23,24,24,24,25,25,26,26,27,27,28,29

The average is sum divided by number of numbers, that will be:

483/20 = 24.15

The difference in mean is:

24.15 - 21.75 = 2.4

We can say, that is about 2 more students in Oak Middle School, correct answer choice is "2nd answer choice" - "There are about 2 more students in each class at Oak Middle School than at Poplar Middle School."

i suppose it should be (y=2x-5)

step-by-step explanation:

the image is given below

since the options are not given so we draw it from the equation

the given equation is

y = (x-1) (x+4)

y = y² + 3x - 4

the above equation is a quadratic equation which will have two roots. if we draw the graph for it, it will look like this
