Answer:

D. 41 and 43

Step-by-step explanation:

To find it, 54 times 6 plus the two numbers then divided by 8 has to equal 51. let a and b be the two numbers

[(54*6) + a + b]8 = 51

(324 + a + b)/8 = 51

324/8 + (a + b)/8 = 51

40.5 + (a + b)/8 = 51

(a + b)/8 = 10.5

a + b = 84

The mean if a and b are 42, what two numbers here have a mean of 42? 41 and 43, 41 + 43 = 84, 84/2 = 42
