13) How do you know when to use the mean or median as the best measure of center?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The mean is the most common measure of center. It is what most people think of when they hear the word "average". However, the mean is affected by extreme values so it may not be the best measure of center to use in a skewed distribution. The median is the value in the center of the data.

Answers

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem uses vertical angles! I'm sure you know this but just in case I will explain. Whenever there are two angles that are across from each other in a junction of two straight lines, they are perfectly equal! In this problem, the angles 6x-7 and 4x+7 are the same angle, so those equations have to have the same answer. In order to solve it, you need to write the equations like this:

6x-7=4x+7

From there you can solve for x. I will write my process here:

2x-7=7

2x=14

x=7

Just writing those vertical angle equations as equalities of each other should give you the answers you are looking for!

centimeters. A technician needs to visit the stes of the three towers, and he has outlined his travel route between

technicians he drives to the three towers. If the actual distance between tower Band tower C is 600 meters, how
for was the technican have to travel to visit all three cell phone towers?

Answers

Answer:

Distance between A ----> B : 2 cm

B ---> C: 3 cm : 600 meters

A----> C: 4 cm

3:600 meters scaled

So its 200 meters per every 1 cm!

From A to B : 400 meters

From B to C : 600 meters

Frok C to A: 800 meters

Therefore we sum 400+600+800= 1800 meters

On Monday Matty worked for 450 minuites in his office on Tuesday he worked half the numbers of minute he worked on Monday on wends day he worked only 1/2 day Wichita was 300 minute how many more minutes did he work on wensday then thursday

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 75 minutes.

Explanation :

Wednesday is 300 minutes & Tuesday is 225 minutes because 450 ÷ 2 = 225.

Wednesday is 300 minutes & Tuesday is 225 minutes because 450 ÷ 2 = 225. SO 300 - 225 = 75.

CAN YOU PLS GIVE ME BRAINLIST? THANK YOU! :))

Answer:

He worked for 75 more minutes on Wednesday then on Tuesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

So since we know that Matty worked for 450 minutes in his office on Monday, we can find out for how long he was working on Tuesday since we know that.......

Let "y" be the number of minutes Matty will work on Tuesday

Let "x" be the number of minutes Matty worked on Monday

[tex]y = \frac{x}{2}[/tex]

Substitute the values we have and get......

[tex]y = \frac{450}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = 225[/tex]

So now we can find out how much more he worked on Wednesday then on Tuesday by doing the following......

Let "w" be the number of minutes Matty worked on Wednesday, then.......

The answer = [tex]w - y[/tex]

The answer = 300 - 225

The answer = 75

find the equation of straight line passing through the points (a,0) and (0,b). If the point (1,1) lies on the equation, prove that
1/a + 1/b =1​

Answers

Answer:

do the following

Step-by-step explanation:

the question says that the line is passing thur the point 1,1 ... so when x = 1 so does y ... also  when  x= a.. then y=0 and when y=b then x =0  .. and this is a straight line... also  1/a + 1/b = 1

if you were to draw on a graph... this .. you would see that when b=2  then x=0 and also when a=2.. then y = 0  ....

and 1/2 + 1/2 =1

so that's the line.... draw in just roughly.... you'll see... then what is the equation of that line.. usually we would use  the slope intercept formula for the equations.. there are more than one way to show the line.. is my point.. but.. if we use  y = mx + b  where m = -1   and b = 2 then...

y= - x+2

That answer got long.. sorry :/

Answer:

step by step

Step-by-step explanation:

Line passing (a,0) (0,b)

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = - b/a

pass (0,b), y interception: b

Line: y = -b/a * x + b  

pass(1,1) y=1, x=1

1 = -b/a + b  

1/b = (-b/a) /b + b/b

1/b = -1/a + 1

1/a + 1/b = 1

Mildred has a bag of coins. The bag contains 10 dimes, 5 nickels, and 1 penny. She will randomly select 2 coins from the bag one at a time without replacement. What is the probability that Mildred will select a dime first and then a penny?

Answers

Answer:

Total possibilities = 16

Probability of a dime of the first draw is 10/16 = 5/8

Probability of a penny on the second draw = 1/15

Probability of both = 5/8 * 1/15 = 1/24

157 degrees ... set 4x-5 = x+16 then solve, you should get x=7, plug in 7 for one of the equations and you'll get 23. subtract 23 from 180 and get 157. hope that helped :)

Answer:

157°

Step-by-step explanation:

(4x - 5)° = (x + 16)°.. (vertical angles)

4x - 5 = x + 16

4x - x = 16 + 5

3x = 21

x = 21/3

x = 7

(x + 16)° + y ° = 180°...(Linear pair angles)

(7 + 16)° + y° = 180°

23° + y° = 180°

y° = 180° - 23°

y° = 157°

9(2) =
g(-2) =
g(5) =

Answers

Answer:

I would, but the way this is set up is VERY confusing. sorry. maybe try to fix it after copying and pasting to make sure it makes sense.

The evaluated values of the step function for the given input values are as g(-2) = -4, g(2) = 3, and g(5) = 5.

To evaluate the step function g(x) for the given input values, we need to follow the conditions specified for each interval.

Given the step function:

g(x) =

-4, x < -1

-1, -1 ≤ x < 2

3, 2 ≤ x < 4

5, x ≥ 4

Let's evaluate the step function for each input:

g(-2):

Since -2 is less than -1, the condition for the first interval is satisfied. Therefore, g(-2) = -4.

g(2):

Since 2 is less than or equal to 4, the condition for the second interval is satisfied.  Therefore, g(2) = 3.

g(5):

Since 5 is greater than or equal to 4, the condition for the last interval is satisfied. Therefore, g(5) = 5.

Hence, we have:

g(-2) = -4

g(2) = 3

g(5) = 5
