Mr. Brown made 5 trips to the sushi bar. On his first trip, he got 14 pieces of sushi. On his second trip, he got 12 pieces of sushi. On his third trip, he got 22 pieces of sushi. On his fourth trip he got 8 pieces of sushi. On his final trip, he got 24 pieces of sushi. What was the average (use the mean) number of pieces of sushi he got on each trip to the sushi bar?

16 pieces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that we have a set with N numbers

{x₁, x₂, x₃, ..., xₙ}

The mean of this set is calculated as:

M = (x₁ + x₂ + x₃ + ...  + xₙ)/N

In this case, our set is:

{14, 12,  22, 8, 24}

So we have N = 5.

The mean of this set will be:

M = (14 + 12 + 22 + 8 + 24)/5 = 16

The average/mean number of pieces of sushi he got on each trip is 16 pieces.

step-by-step explanation:

because first you have to add the 4x, 9x, and the 7x together and you get 20x and then you add the last numbers up and you get 5and then you put the subtraction sign in there and that's how you get the answer.

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
