56. Thermometer A reads xº.
Thermometer B reads 2° below the
reading on thermometer A.
Thermometers C and D each read 4°
less than twice the reading on
thermometer B. What is the average
temperature, in degrees, of the 4
thermometers?
E. x - 4
2
F. x - 4
G. 3x 9
445
H. 3x - 9
What is the answer

Respuesta :

All the options are incorrect. the required average is (3x-9)/2.

Thermometer A reads xº.
Thermometer B reads 2° below the reading on thermometer A = x-2
Thermometers C and D each read 4° less than twice the reading on thermometer  = 2(x-2)-4

What is average?

Average of the values is the ratio of total sum of values to the number of values.

As per question,
A=x
B = x-2
C.D = 2(x-2)-4= 2x-8
Average = A + B + C + D /4
= x+x-2+2x-8+2x-8/4
= 6x-18/4
= 3x-9/2

Thus, the required average of temperature = 3x-9/2.
