Here is a data set:
1 2 3 3 4 4 4 4 5 5 6 7
A. For the data set with the value of 70, why would the median be a better choice for the measure of
center than the mean?

Answers

Answer 1

For the given data set, median is better choice for measure than mean because:

Median is usually a better measure of the center when there are extreme values as it is remains unaffected by the precise numerical value. The most common measure of the center is mean.

What is median and mean?

Adding all numbers in the data and dividing it by the number of values in the set gives mean of a data. Whereas, median is the middle value in a data set, implying that 50% of data points can have a value smaller or equal to the median and 50% of data points can have a value higher or equal to the median.

For a small data set, firstly, count the number of data points and arrange them in increasing order. If the number of data is odd, then add 1 to the number and divide the result by 2 to obtain the rank of the data whose value is the median.

The slope of this straight line is equal to: A. 2

What is a slope?

A slope is also referred to as gradient and it's typically used to describe both the direction, ratio, and steepness of the function of a straight line based on its coordinates or points.

How to calculate the slope of a line?

Mathematically, the slope of any straight line can be calculated by using this formula;

[tex]Slope = \frac{Change\;in\;y\;axis}{Change\;in\;x\;axis}\\\\Slope = \frac{y_2\;-\;y_1}{x_2\;-\;x_1}[/tex]

By critically observing the given graph, we can logically deduce the following points:

Point (x, y) = (1, 1) Point (x, y) = (-1, -3)

Note: Each interval on this graph represents 1 unit.

Substituting the given points into the formula, we have;

Slope = Δy/Δx

Slope = (-3 - 1)/(-1 - 1)

Slope = -4/-2

Slope = 2

1. First we expand the brackets

     10x-20x=10x-8

2. we can simplify the equation to

       -10x=10x-8

3. we want to find the value of x so we get all of the x on one side so we would -10x on both side

  -20x=-8

4. to find the value of x we divide each side by -20 this gives us

x=[tex]\frac{8}{20}[/tex]

(it's not a negative as the negative cancel each other out as negative divided by negative gives us positive)

5. However we can simplify the fraction by dividing the top and bottom by     4 (this is because the highest common factor for both number is 4) this gives

 x=[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

476 x 0.001 = 0.476

0.476 x 10¹ = 4.76

4.76 x 10³ = 4,760

47.6 x 0.1 = 4.76

We have to find the following products of the equations.

The basic rule for multiplication between numbers with decimal points can be described through some examples first.

Decimal point is shifted leftwards up to the power of 10 which is divided with it. Also decimal point is shifted rightwards when multiplied with powers of 10.

Now we will find the product for each equation:

For 476 × 0.001, 0.001 = 1/1000

Therefore, 476 × 0.001 = 476 × 1/1000 = 0.476 [decimal point shifted left]

For 0.476 × 10¹ = 0.476 × 10 = 4.76 [decimal point shifted right]

For 4.76 × 10³ = 4.76 x 1000 = 4760 [decimal point shifted right]

D. 7.14 x 10^3

Answers

The correct option is A. 1.4 x 10^3

Exponents: The exponent of a number indicates how many times a number has been multiplied by itself. For instance, 3^4 indicates that we have multiplied 3 four times. Its full form is 3 3 3 3. Exponent is another name for a number's power. A whole number, fraction, negative number, or decimal are all acceptable.

The first number = 72,980,001

The second number = 54908

Dividing the first number by the second number we get:

=72980001/54908 = 1329.13

A = base areap = perimeter of the bases = slant height

Therefore,

He will read 210 pages of the book and it will take Amir 6 days to catch up with Jesse

Day Jesse started reading: Saturday

Number of pages read by Jesse each day: 30 pages

Day Amir started reading: Sunday

Number of pages read by Amir each day: 35 pages

Let x represent the number of days Amir has been reading and y represent the number of pages he has read

Formulating the equation for Amir we get:

y = 35*x

y = 35x

The equation for Jesse will be:

y = 30*(x+1)

y = 30(x+1)

Equating both equations we get:

35x = 30(x+1)

35x = 30x +30

5x = 30

x=6

Phyllis invested $9,500 a portion earning a simple interest rate of 7 1/5% per year and the rest earning a rate of 7% per year. After 1 year the total interest earned on these investments was $677. How much money did she invest at each rate?

Answers

Using simple interest, it is found that the amounts invested are given as follows:

$2,350 at a rate of 7.2%.$6,650 at a rate of 7%.

Simple Interest

Simple interest is used when there is a single compounding per time period, usually measured in years.

The amount of money after t years in is modeled by:

A(t) = P(1 + rt)

In which:

P is the initial amount of the investment.r is the interest rate of the investment, as a decimal.

The interest accrued over t years is:

I(t) = Prt.

For this problem, we have that:

She had two investments totaling $9500, hence P and 9500 - P.The rates are of [tex]r_1 = 0.072, r_2 = 0.07[/tex].

From the interest earned, we have that:

[tex]I_1 + I_2 = 677[/tex]

In which:

[tex]I_1 = 0.072P[/tex][tex]I_2 = 0.07(9000 - P)[/tex]

Replacing both these relations in the sum of interests, we have that:

0.072P + 0.07(9000 - P) = 677

0.002P = 677 - 0.07(9000)

P = (677 - 0.07(9000))/0.02

P = 2350.

Hence she invested $2,350 at a rate of 7.2% and $6,650 at a rate of 7%, as 9000 - 2350 = 6650.

It is also widely used in electronics, communications, and signals. The dB is a logarithmic measure of a ratio. Power, sound pressure, voltage, or intensity are all examples of ratios.A noise or sound level of 85 decibels is equivalent to that of a food blender, heavy traffic while driving, a noisy restaurant, or a movie theater.

María Fernanda buys a bag of cookies that contains 7 chocolate chip cookies, 5 peanut butter cookies, 6 sugar cookies and 8 oatmeal cookies.

What is the probability that María Fernanda reaches in the bag and randomly selects 2 chocolate chip cookies from the bag?

Answers

Based on the number of cookies in the bag of cookies, if María Fernanda is to reach in and select 2 chocolate chip cookies, the probability of that happening is 6.46%

How to find the probability?

The events that María Fernanda picks one chocolate chip cookie and then another, are both independent events.

To find the probability of independent events, the formula is:

= Independent event probability 1 x Independent probability 2

Find the total number of cookies:

= 7 chocolate chip cookies + 5 peanut butter cookies + 6 sugar cookies + 8 oatmeal cookies

= 26 cookies

The probability of two chocolate cookies being picked by María Fernanda is:

= Number of chocolate cookies / Number of total chips x Number of chocolate cookies left / Number of cookies left

= 7 / 26 x 6 / 25

= 42 / 650

For each event, write the sample space and tell how many outcomes there are. Roll a standard number cube. Then flip a quarter. How many outcomes are there?

Answers

The total number of outcomes is 12.

An outcome is a potential outcome of an experiment or trial in probability theory.

Each conceivable result of a specific experiment is distinct, and many results are incompatible (only one outcome will occur on each trial of the experiment). The components of a sample space are all the potential results of an experiment. There is a chance that outcomes will occur with probabilities between 0 and 1. (inclusively). In a discrete probability distribution whose sample space is finite, each result is assigned a certain probability. A continuous distribution, on the other hand, only allows non-zero probabilities to be assigned to ranges of events, with all individual outcomes having zero probability.

When a number cube is rolled there are 6 distinct outcomes {1,2,3,4,5,6} = 6

Again when a quarter is flipped then there are two possible outcomes {heads , tails } = 2

The total number of outcomes = 6 × 2 = 12
