Match the vocabulary word to its correct definition.
1. mean
The mean is the average value of the data you collect. In statistics, you find the mean of your sample. Then you use that mean to approximate the mean of the entire population. If you want the mean of the data to be a good approximation of the mean of the entire population, your need to make sure that you collect a random sample. To find the mean, you find the sum of the data points you collected and divide it by the number of data points in the set. For example, if the data you collected was {3, 3, 6}. Then the mean would be (3 + 3 + 6) ÷ 3 = 12 ÷ 3 = 4. It's important to note that the mean does not have to be a data point in your set. You can generalize the formula as well. If you collect n data points {d1, d2, d3, … dn}, then the mean of your data set is . The Greek letter μ—pronounced "mu"—is used because the word "mean" begins with the letter "m." It is important that you divide by the number of data points in your set, n.
2. population
An experiment is a well-defined procedure under controlled conditions designed to gather data that tests a hypothesis. For example, you want to test the hypothesis that flowers grow faster when they are watered every other day as opposed to every day. Then you could water one set of plants every day and another set of plants every other day. What data would you collect? The height of each plant once a day. What conditions would you need to control? You would need to make sure that the groups of plants are treated the same in every other way by getting the same amount of sun and being maintained at the same temperature, etc.
3. experiment
Bias is the preference for a particular group or subset. In the example above, the bias was toward viewers who like sports. When your sample is not chosen at random, you introduce bias into your study. So, in a certain sense, a biased sample is the opposite of a random sample. Why? In a biased sample, some members of the population are more likely to be chosen than others. In a random sample, every member of the population is equally likely to be chosen. Bias may also occur in surveys. See "survey" below for more information on this type of bias.
4. sample
A population is the entire group you want to understand. So, in a certain sense, you can think of the population as the "opposite" of the sample because a sample is not the entire population. A sample is chosen subset upon that you use to draw conclusions about the entire population.
5. bias
Random means free from bias. So, if you choose a random sample from a population, every member of the population has an equal chance of being chosen. It should be pointed out that this "true randomness" is an ideal which is difficult to achieve in real world experiments conducted on real world populations. That is why statisticians make every effort to ensure their samples chosen as free from bias as is possible, that is, as randomly as possible under real world conditions.
6. survey
A sample is a subset chosen from a population. In most cases, you want a random sample. Why? A random sample has the best chance of accurately representing the entire population.
7. random
A survey is the means of collecting a sample. In statistics, a survey is often a question or set of questions. It is critical that the questions, like the sample itself, be free from bias. Bias in a question tends to favor one response. As an extreme example of a biased question about colors might be, "Don't you think blue is beautiful and yellow is yucky?" An unbiased form of the question might be, "Which color do you prefer, blue or yellow?" Though careful, statisticians might be concerned about the order in which the colors are offered, so that might further simplify the question to, "What is your favorite color?" This type of question is most free from bias because it does not suggest a response and therefore does not favor a response.

A pattern for a skirt calls for 1 7/8 yd of fabric. If Mary
Kate wants to make one skirt for herself and one for her
twin, how much fabric will she need?
Answer:
Mary Kate will need 3 6/8 yd of fabric.
Step-by-step explanation:
If Mary wants to make one skirt for herself AND her twin, that is equal to 2 skirts.
So if one skirt calls for 1 7/8 yd of fabric, multiply it by 2:
1 7/8 x 2
Convert 1 7/8 to an improper fraction and add 1 as a denominator for 2:
15/8 x 2/1 = 30/8
30/8 simplified is 3 6/8

Answer:
29.5 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's divide the shape into 3 parts to make it easy for us to find the area.
- a wide triangle
- a triangle
- a shorter rectangle
For the wider rectangle, the area is;
A1 = 8 × 2 = 16 in²
For the triangle, the area is;
A2 = ½(7 - 2) × 3
A2 = 7.5 in²
For the shorter rectangle, the area is;
A3 = 3 × 2
A3 = 6 in²
Total area = A1 + A2 + A3 = 16 + 7.5 + 6 = 29.5 square inches
Use the box plots comparing the number of males and number of females attending the latest superhero movie each day for a month to answer the questions.
Two box plots shown. The top one is labeled Males. Minimum at 0, Q1 at 1, median at 20, Q3 at 25, maximum at 50. The bottom box plot is labeled Females. Minimum at 0, Q1 at 5, median at 6, Q3 at 10, maximum at 18 and a point at 43
Part A: Estimate the IQR for the males' data. (2 points)
Part B: Estimate the difference between the median values of each data set. (2 points)
Part C: Describe the distribution of the data and if the mean or median would be a better measure of center for each. (4 points)
Part D: Provide a possible reason for the outlier in the data set. (2 points)
Answer:
The formula for iqr is q3 - q1
24
Step-by-step explanation:
The box plot is a visual way of presenting a dataset where the rectangle is used to represent the quartiles.
The IQR of the male dataset is 24.The difference in median of both datasets is 14.The best measure of center to use for the female box plot is the median. The best measure of center to use for the male box plot is the mean.A possible reason for an outlier is human error.The given parameters are:
Male: Female
[tex]Minimum = 0[/tex] [tex]Minimum = 0[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 1[/tex] [tex]Q_1 = 5[/tex]
[tex]Median = 20[/tex] [tex]Median = 6[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 25[/tex] [tex]Q_3 = 10[/tex]
[tex]Maximum = 50[/tex] [tex]Maximum = 18[/tex]
A. IQR for male dataset
The IQR is calculated as follows:
[tex]IQR = Q_3 - Q_1[/tex]
For the male's data:
[tex]IQR = 25-1[/tex]
[tex]IQR = 24[/tex]
Hence, the IQR of the male dataset is 24.
B. Difference in median values
We have:
[tex]Median = 20[/tex] ----- Male dataset
[tex]Median = 6[/tex] ----- Female dataset
So, the difference (d) is:
[tex]d = 20 - 6[/tex]
[tex]d = 14[/tex]
Hence, the difference in median of both dataset is 14.
C. Best measure of center
The female box plot (see attachment) has an outlier. This means that the measure of center to use for the female dataset is the median.
The male box plot has no outlier; this means that the mean can be used as a measure of center for the male box plot
D. Reason for outlier
There are several reasons that could cause an outlier in a dataset. One of the reasons is human error during data entry

Answer:
x = 5; y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
One angle is a right angle, so its measure is 90 degrees.
One angle measures 45 degrees, so the unknown angle must also measure 45 degrees.
x and y are opposite two 45-degree angles, so x = y.
In a 45-45-90 triangle, the ratio of the lengths of the sides is
1 : 1 : sqrt(2)
We have
x : y : 5sqrt(2)
x/1 = 5sqrt(2)/sqrt(2)
x = 5

How do I find x and y?
Answer:
x = 20
y = 70
Step-by-step explanation:
Since B and D are parallel :
6x - 10 + 3x + 10 = 180 add/subtract like terms
9x = 180 divide both sides by 9
x = 20
angle represented by y and 6x - 10 are supplementary and their sum is 180
y + 6x - 10 = 180 replace x with 20
y + 6*20 - 10 = 180
y + 120 - 10 = 180
y + 110 = 180 subtract 110 from both sides
y = 70

One person can do a certain job in 10 minutes and another person to the same job and 15 minutes how many minutes will it take to do the job together
Answer:
6 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for time together is
1/a+1/b = 1/c where a and b are the times alone and c is the time together
1/10 + 1/15 = 1/c
Multiply by the least common denominator to clear the fraction
30c(1/10 + 1/15 = 1/c)
3c+ 2c = 30
5c = 30
Divide by 5
5c/5 = 30/5
c = 6
Answer:
6 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Person A does 1 job in 10 minutes.
In 1 minute, person A does 1/10 of the job.
Person B does the same job in 15 minutes.
In 1 minute, person B does 1/15 of the job.
Working together, in 1 minute the do
1/10 + 1/15 of the job.
Working together, they take t minutes to do the job.
In 1 minute, they do 1/t of the job.
1/10 + 1/15 = 1/t
3/30 + 2/30 = 1/t
5/30 = 1/t
1/6 = 1/t
t = 6

Mark made a sandwich that was 5 inches long and 7 inches high. If he cuts
the sandwich in half, what would be the diagonal length of the sandwich?
Explanation
a sanwich which is most commonly a square, has the side lengths of 5 and 5.
cuting this in half will give you a 45-45-90 triangle
the legs will be measure of x, and the hypotonuse will be x[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]
so the hypotonuse is 5[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]
The diagonal length of the sandwich after it is cut in half is approximately 6.106 inches.
How to calculate the lengthUsing the Pythagorean theorem, we can calculate the diagonal length as follows:
diagonal² = length² + height²
diagonal² = (5 inches)² + (3.5 inches)²
diagonal² = 37.25 inches²
Taking the square root of both sides, we find:
diagonal = √37.25 inches
Calculating the square root of 37.25, we get:
diagonal ≈ 6.106 inches
Therefore, the diagonal length of the sandwich after it is cut in half is approximately 6.106 inches.
