The average age of the members of a country club is 54 years old. If there are ten 36-year-olds, fifty 60-year-olds, and twenty other members all of the same age, what is the age of the twenty other members

Respuesta :

The age of twenty other members is 48 years.

Given that the average age of the members of a country club is 54 years old and if there are ten 36-year-olds, fifty 60-year-olds, and twenty other members all of the same age.

The average is defined as the sum of a set of values divided by n, where n is the total set of values. A mean is another name for an average.

The average age is given by=(Sum of ages)/(Number of members (n))

Let x be the age of other twenty members.

Given A=54  years and n=10+50+20=80

So, now, we will substitute the values in the formula, we get

[tex]\begin{aligned}54&=\frac{10\times 36+50\times 60+20\times x}{10+50+20}\\ 54&=\frac{360+3000+20x}{80}\\ 4320&=3360+20x\end[/tex]

Further, subtract 3360 from both sides, we get

4320-3360=3360+20x-3360

960=20x

Furthermore, we will divide both sides with 20, we get

960/20=20x/20

48=x

Hence, the age of the twenty other members when average age of the members of a country club is 54 years old is 48 years.
