(Enter your answers to one decimal place.) 147 153 170 172 185 181 182 185 181 170 181 167 153 145

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Mean: 169.4

Median: 171

Mode: 181

Step-by-step explanation:

I first sorted the numbers by value, least to greatest.

145 147 153 153 167 170 170 172 181 181 181 182 185 185

We can see that 181 occurs the most, 3 times, so it's the mode.

The median of this set will be the middle number(s).

When we take away 6 numbers from both sides we are left with 170 and 172, and the mean of these two numbers is 171. So the median is 171.

We can add all the numbers and divide by 14 to get the mean.

[tex]147+153+170+172+185+181+182+185+181+170+181+167+153+145=2372\\\\2372\div14\approx169.4[/tex]

5(y–3.8)=4.7(y–4) help help

Answers

Answer:

y = 2/3 or 0.667

Step-by-step explanation:

5(y–3.8)=4.7(y–4)

Expand the terms in the bracket

That's

5y - 19 = 4.7y - 18.8

Group like terms

5y - 4.7y = 19 - 18.8

log 7 (x^2 + 11) = log 7 15

Answers

Answer:

x = ±2

Step-by-step explanation:

log 7 (x^2 + 11) = log 7 15

We know that log a ( b) = log a(c)   means b =c

x^2 + 11 = 15

Subtract 11 from each side

x^2 = 15-11

x^2 =4

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) =±sqrt(4)

x = ±2

Residents of four cities are able to vote in an upcoming regional election. A newspaper recently conducted a survey to gauge support for each of the two candidates. The results of the poll are shown in the two-way frequency table below.

Answers

Answer:

3 only

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the statement, "The two cities with the highest number of respondents, both show more support for candidate A." In the total column, the two highest number of respondents are 471 and 463 which represent Carsonville and Appleton. For Carsonville, the number of respondents who prefer candidate A is 205, which is less than the number of respondents who prefer candidate B, 266. Therefore, this statement is not true.

Consider the statement, "The number of people who support candidate B in Carsonville is twice the number of people who support candidate B in New Thomas." In the table, the number of people who support candidate B in Carsonville is observed to be 266 and the number of people who support candidate B in New Thomas is 138. Since 266 is not equal to twice 138, this statement is not true.

Consider the statement, "More residents of Center City responded to the poll than the number who responded from New Thomas." In the total column, it can be observed that 350 people responded to the poll in Center City and 318 people responded to the poll in New Thomas. Since, 350 is greater than 318, this statement is true.

Consider the statement, "Overall, more residents support candidate A than candidate B." The bottom row of the table represents the total number of responses for each candidate. The number of people supporting candidate A is 797, which is less than the number of people supporting candidate B, 805. So, this statement is not true.

Therefore, the true statement is III only.

More residents of the center city responded to the pole than the number who responded from New Thomas, which is the only correct option. Option B. is correct.


Data given in the table shows the data of elections between two candidates among the different cities.

 

What is Statistic?

Statistics is the study of mathematics that deals with relations between comprehensive data.


I.The two cities with the highest number of respondents both show more support for candidate A. This statement is false because carsonville is the second highest support for A but it does not show more support for candidate A.

II.The number of people who support candidate B in Carsonville is twice the number of people who support candidate B in New Thomas. It is false

III. More residents of Center City responded to the pole than the number who responded from New Thomas. It is true.

IV. Overall, more residents support candidate A than candidate B. it is also false.

Thus, more residents of the center city responded to the pole than the number who responded from New Thomas, which is the only correct option. Option B. is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

When the parabola equation is like

[tex]y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]

The vertex is the point (h,k) and the focus is the point (h, k+1/(4a))

As the vertex is (3,-2) we can say that h = 3 and k = -2.

We need to find a.

The focus  is (3,2) so we can say.

[tex]2=-2+\dfrac{1}{4a}\\\\\text{*** We add 2. ***}\\\\\dfrac{1}{4a}=2+2=4\\\\\text{*** We multiply by 4a. ***}\\\\16a=1\\\\\text{*** We divide by 16. ***}\\\\a=\dfrac{1}{16}[/tex]

When Prudence first tosses the die, the sum of the values on the four side faces is 15. In her second toss, the sum of these values is 12. Find what value appears in the face opposite 6 on Prudence’s special die. (Hint: what are possible values for the top and bottom face when the sum of the side faces is 12).

Answers

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

first, we know that:

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +5 +6 = 21

Now, which two numbers we should take out in order to have 15?

we can remove the 2 and the 4, or the 1 and the 5.

so here we have two possibilities, 2 and 4 are opposite, or 1 and 5 are opposite (they are located in opposite faces of the die)

in the other arrange, we have that removing two numbers we should get 12.

in order to reach 12, we should remove two numbers that add 9 together.

those can be 4 and 5, or 6 and 3.

Now, notice that in the first restriction we have that:

Or 2 and 4 are opposite,

or 1 and 5 are opposite.

So 4 and 5 can never be opposite, so we should have that 6 and 3 are opposite.

Then we can affirm that the value that appears in the face opposite to the 6, is the 3.

A. 70.69
B. 50.2
C. 39.8
D. 19.4​

Answers

Answer:

A. 70.69 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Two lines:

[tex]3x - 4y + 5 = 0 \\2x + 3y -1 = 0[/tex]

To find:

Angle between the two lines = ?

Solution:

Acute Angle between two lines can be found by using the below formula:

[tex]tan \theta = |\dfrac{(m_1 - m_2)}{ (1 + m_1m_2)}|[/tex]

Where [tex]\theta[/tex] is the acute angle between two lines.

[tex]m_1, m_2[/tex] are the slopes of two lines.

Slope of a line represented by [tex]ax+by+c=0[/tex] is given as:

[tex]m = -\dfrac{a}{b }[/tex]

So,

[tex]m_1 = -\dfrac{3}{- 4} = \dfrac{3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]m_2 = -\dfrac{2}{ 3}[/tex]

Putting the values in the formula:

[tex]tan \theta = |\dfrac{(\dfrac{3}{4}- (-\dfrac{2}{3}))}{ (1 + \dfrac{3}{4}\times (-\dfrac{2}{3 }))}|\\\Rightarrow tan \theta = |\dfrac{\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{2}{3}}{ (1 -\dfrac{1}{2})}|\\\Rightarrow tan \theta = |\dfrac{\dfrac{17}{12}}{ \dfrac{1}{2}}|\\\Rightarrow tan \theta = \dfrac{17}{6}\\\Rightarrow \theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{17}{6})\\\Rightarrow \theta = \bold{70.69^\circ}[/tex]

So, correct answer is A. 70.69

Given that

Width of rectangular flower garden, w = 4 m

Perimeter of rectangular flower garden, p = 26 m

To find:

Length of Lisa's flower garden = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us understand perimeter, length and width of a rectangle.

Let ABCD be a rectangle. Please refer to the attached image.

Opposite sides of a rectangle are equal to each other.

AB = CD = Length  

Let the length be [tex]l[/tex] m.

BC = DA = Width = 4 m

Perimeter of a closed image is equal to the sum of all the sides of the image.

So, perimeter of ABCD:

[tex]p = AB + BC + CD + DA \\\Rightarrow \bold{ p = 2 \times (Length +Width)}[/tex]

[tex]26 = 2 \times (l +4)\\\Rightarrow 2l =26-8\\\Rightarrow \bold{l = 9 m}[/tex]

the box plots shows the price for two different brands of shoes​

Answers

Answer:

A. The interquartile range (IQR) for brand A, $10, is less than the IQR for brand B, $25.

Step-by-step explanation:

The most appropriate measure that can be used to compare the SPREAD of the data of the 2 brands plotted on a box plot, is the Interquartile range (IQR).

Interquartile range is the difference between Q3 and Q1.

Q3 is the value which lies at the end of the rectangular box, while the Q1 lies at the beginning of the box.

From the box plot given,

IQR for brand A = 80 - 70 = $10

IQR for brand B = 50 - 25 = $25

Therefore, the correct option is "A. The interquartile range (IQR) for brand A, $10, is less than the IQR for brand B, $25."

Answers

Answer:

(9, -13.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

It's given in the question that a quadrilateral RSTV is dilated with a scale factor of 1.5 with respect to the origin to form R'S'T'V'.

Rule for dilation is,

(x, y) → (kx, ky)

where 'k' is the scale factor.

If vertex R of the quadrilateral is (6, -9),

By the given rule of dilation,

R(6, 9) → R'[(1.5 × 6), -(1.5 × 9)]

           → R'(9, -13.5)

Therefore, Option given in bottom right (9, -13.5) will be the answer.
