Two histograms showing the number of pets owned by boys and girls in a science class are each skewed left. Which measure of variability should be used to describe the data? mean median standard deviation interquartile range

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: D : interquartile range

Step-by-step explanation: I just took the test

Answer 2

The measure of variability which should be used in this case interquartile range. so option D is correct.

What is quartile ?

A quartile is a type of quantile that divides a data set into four equal parts, or quarters. The first quartile (Q1) marks the 25th percentile of the data, the second quartile (Q2) marks the 50th percentile, or median, of the data, and the third quartile (Q3) marks the 75th percentile of the data. These quartiles divide the data into four equal parts and provide information about the distribution of the data and its spread. The interquartile range (IQR), which is the difference between Q3 and Q1, is a measure of the spread of the middle 50% of the data.

When the data is skewed, the mean can be misleading as it is affected by the skewness of the data. In such cases, the median is a better measure of central tendency that represents the typical value of the data.

Therefore, the measure of variability that should be used to describe the data in this case is the interquartile range (IQR). IQR is a measure of spread that is not affected by extreme values or outliers and is often used with skewed data. It is calculated as the difference between the third quartile (Q3) and the first quartile (Q1) of the data.

So, the answer is the interquartile range.

The edge length of a cube-shaped crate is the square of the edge length of a cube-shaped box. Write an expression for the number of boxes that can fit in the crate.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]s^3[/tex]

where s is the edge length of the cube-shaped box

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the edge length of the cube-shaped box=s

The edge length of a cube-shaped crate is the square of the edge length of a cube-shaped box.

Therefore, edge length of the cube-shaped crate[tex]=s^2[/tex]

To determine the number of boxes that can fit in the crate, we first find the volume of the crate and the box.

Volume of the cube-shaped crate of side length [tex]s^2=(s^2)^3=s^6 $ cubic units[/tex]Volume of the cube-shaped box of side length [tex]s=s^3 $ cubic units[/tex]

Therefore, the number of boxes that can fit in the crate

=Volume of Crate divided by Volume of Box

[tex]=\frac{s^6}{s^3}\\=s^{6-3}\\=s^3$ boxes[/tex]

Therefore, an expression for the number of boxes that can fit in the crate is [tex]s^3[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

C. If you flip a coin, it will come up either heads or tails.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. My guess is it doesn't rain much in Phoenix in July. A probability of 1 means it will happen for sure, so this is not it.

B. A die has 3 even numbers and 3 odd numbers. The probability of rolling an even number is 3/6 = 0.5. This is not it.

C. If you flip a coin, you either get heads or tails. The probability of heads or tails is 1 since one of the two outcomes will always happen. This is the answer.

D. The probability of the birth of a girl is 1 out of 2, so it is 0.5. This is not it.

Answer:

If you flip a coin, it will come up either heads or tails. It either will fall on heads or tails everytime so that is closest to one.

Step-by-step explanation:

0 = In(x + 7)

x + 7 = e⁰

x + 7 = 1

x = 1 - 7

x = -6

Steps to solve:

0 = In(x + 7)

~Log definition

e^0 = x + 7

~Simplify

1 = x + 7

~Solve for x

1 - 7 = x + 7 - 7

-6 = x

Therefore, the answer is x = -6

D. 86

Answers

We have been given a circle with a tangent and a secant, which are intersecting at an angle 38 degrees. We are asked to find the measure of arc g.

We can see that angle with 38 degrees measure is a secant tangent angle outside the circle.

We know that measure of an angle formed by intersection tangent and secant outside circle is half the difference of intercepted arcs.

[tex]38^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2}(119^{\circ}-g^{\circ})[/tex]

[tex]38^{\circ}\cdot 2=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 2(119^{\circ}-g^{\circ})[/tex]

[tex]76^{\circ}=119^{\circ}-g^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]76^{\circ}+g^{\circ}=119^{\circ}-g^{\circ}+g^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]76^{\circ}+g^{\circ}=119^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]76^{\circ}-76^{\circ}+g^{\circ}=119^{\circ}-76^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]g^{\circ}=43^{\circ}[/tex]

Therefore, the measure of smaller arc is 43 and option B is the correct choice.

Given:

m∠QPS=107∘

m∠RPS=4x+27∘

m∠QPR=9x-115∘

Find m∠QPR


**This was on Khan Academy, so please hurry lol**

Answers

Answer:

m∠QPR = 20°

Step-by-step explanation:

If we make a sketch of the triangle, it will be observed, that line R bisects angle P.

Considering Triangle, ΔQPS;

∠QPS=107∘

Considering triangle, QPR;

∠QPR=9x-115∘

Considering triangle, RPS;

∠RPS=4x+27∘

Thus, ∠RPS + ∠QPR = ∠QPS

4x+27° + 9x-115° = 107°

13x - 88° = 107∘

13 x = 107∘ + 88∘

13x = 195°

x = 195°/13

x = 15°

m∠QPR = 9x - 115°

= (9 x 15) - 115°

= 135° - 115°

= 20°

Therefore, m∠QPR = 20°

A triangle has a leg with a length of 3 and a hypotenuse with a length of 6.What is the length of the other leg?

Answers

Answer:

3[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity on the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.

let x be the length of the other leg, then

x² + 3² = 6², that is

x² + 9 = 36 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

x² = 27 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = [tex]\sqrt{27}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{9(3)}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{9}[/tex] × [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = 3[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] ← exact value

Answers

Hey there!

X = 90

In a quadrilateral there is 360 degrees. You add up all the given points and subtract then from 360 and you get 90.

So the answer is D.

Hope this helps !

Answer:

The value of x is D) 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of interior angles in a quadrilateral is 360°

As the total interior angles in a quadrilateral is 360 to work this out you would first need to work out the total of the angles given You can do this by adding 101 and 75 and 94, this gives you 270. This is because it tells us how much of that 360 degree total has been used.

The next step is to work out the angle of x. You can do this by subtracting the total angles gives of 270 from the total of 360, this gives you 90 degrees. This is because by subtracting it we are isolating the value of x.

1) Add the values of 94, 101, 75.

[tex]101+94+75=270[/tex]

2) Minus 270 from 360.

[tex]360-270=90degrees[/tex]

c. The smallest number is half the largest.

O

d. One worker works much fewer hours than everyone else.

PLEASE HURRY

Answers

Answer:

Option D

One worker works for much fewer hours than everyone else

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we will need to clarify the concepts.

The median of a distribution is the middle number in that distribution, after the values have been arranged in either an ascending or descending order.

The mean is a weighted average of a distribution.

The mean has the characteristic of  usually being affected by extremely low or extremely high values.

In our case, we have a relatively low value in terms of hours worked. This means that in the distribution, the worker that worked only 20 hours, will affect the mean hours worked by all the workers, making it lower than the median value.  

Means give better results, when used to analyse distributions with smaller ranges.

Jake received a student loan for $12,000. He plans on paying off the loan in five years. At the end of five years, J. Cole have paid $3600 in interest. What is a simple interest rate on the student loan?

Answers

Answer:

The simple interest rate on the student loan is 6%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the simple interest rate, use the formula for total simple interest:

[tex]I = Prt[/tex]

[tex]I[/tex] = total interest paid

P = principal, or starting value

r = interest rate in decimal form

t = time in years

State known values

P = 12,000

t = 5

[tex]I[/tex] = 3,600

Substitute known values and isolate "r"

[tex]I = Prt[/tex]

3,600 = (12,000) (r) (5)

3,600 = (60,000) r

r = 0.06

Since "r" is given as a decimal, convert this to a percentage by multiplying by 100.

0.06 = 6%

∴ The simple interest rate on the student loan is 6%.

Answer=6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal(P)=12000

Time(T)=5  yrs

Interest(I)=3600

We have,

I=PTR/100

3600=(12000*5*R)/100

3600*100=60000*R

R=360000/60000

R=6%

A line segment is a subset of a line which has two endpoints.

A ray has one end point and extends indefinitely on the other direction.

A line extends indefinitely on both of it's directions.

From the given data

Line segment DF has a length 38 and line segment DE has a length 12.

To find the length of line segment EF we have to subtract the length of line segment DE from length segment DF.

∴ EF = DF - DE
