Arnold made the following grades on his quizzes and assignments: 80, 92, 88, 90, 75, 38, 92, 95 2. Arnold wants to present his scores as advantageously as possible. Should he use the mean or the median of this data set? What other strategies could he employ to yield a more favorable measure of center?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If he were to find the mean then he would need to add all the numbers up and divide by the number of numbers. The answer of this would 69.1

If you find the median you would need to put the numbers in order,

2, 38, 75, 80, 88, 90, 92, 92, 95, then find the middle which would be 88.

So the better option would be finding the median. I think that this would be the best way to get the the most favorable measure of center.

I hope this helps.

Maggie drew lines of best fit for two scatter plots, as shown. Which statement best describes the placement of the lines Maggie drew?

Answers

Answer:

B. Only line B is a well-placed line of best fit.

Step-by-step explanation:

A good line of best fit is a line drawn to represent, as much as possible, all data points. As long as the data points are clustered along the line, and are not farther from each other, the line is a best fit for such data points.

Therefore, from the two lines drawn by Maggie, Line B seems to be the only well-placed line of best fit, as virtually all the data points are clustered along the line, compared to Line A. Line A only runs across 2 data points. The rest data points are scattered far apart from the line.

Therefore, the statement that best describes the placement of the line of best fit drawn by Maggie is: "B. Only line B is a well-placed line of best fit."

Answer:

Only line B

Step-by-step explanation:

Line A is too low on the graph to be best fit for the plot

A rectangular solid and a cube are of equal volume. If the rectangular solid is 20 centimeters long, 5 centimeters wide, and 10 centimeters high, what is the length, in centimeters, of an edge of the cube?

Answers

Answer:

10 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to remember what's the formula to get the volume of a rectangular solid and a cube.

The volume of the first equals:

Volume = Length x Width x Height

While the volume of the cube is:

[tex]Volume = a^{3}[/tex] where a is the edge.

We are given the measures of the rectangular solid so we can calculate its volume:

[tex]Volume= (20)(5)(10)=1000[/tex] cubic cms.

Now, we know that  both the volume of the rectangular solid and the cube are the same so we will use this information to calculate the edge of the cube.

[tex]1000=a^3 \\\sqrt[3]{1000} =\sqrt[3]{a^3} \\10=a[/tex]

Thus the length of an edge of the cube is 10 centimeters

Peter attempted to use the divide-center method to find the line of best fit on a scatterplot.

What was his mistake?
He had a different number of points to the left of the vertical line than to the right of the vertical line.

He had a different number of points above the line of best fit than below the line of best fit.

He didn’t approximate the center of the cluster located on the left side of the vertical line and of the cluster located on the right side of the vertical line.

He didn’t connect the centers of the clusters on the left side and right side of the vertical line to produce the line of best fit.

Answers

Answer:

He had a different number of points to the left of the vertical line than to the right of the vertical line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide-center method is the method which involves dividing the data on the graph into two equal parts and then fin the line of best fit. The center of each group is approximated and then a line is constructed between two centers which is estimated as line of best fit.

72.3 + (-39.1)


Rewrite the expression by breaking up each of the place values. In this case, the place values are tens, ones, and tenths.

Answers

Answer:

72.3 - 39.1 = 4tens - 7ones + 2tenth

Step-by-step explanation:

Give the expression 72.3 + (-39.1)

opening the parenthesis:

= 72.3 + (-39.1)

= 72.3 - 39.1

Breaking the decimal values into place values

72.3 = 7tens + 2units + 3tenth

72.3 = 7(10)+2(1)+3(1/10)

72.3 =70+2+0.3

Similarly for 39.1

39.1 = 3tens + 9units + 1tenth

39.1 = 3(10)+9(1)+1(1/10)

39.1 =30+9+0.1

72.3 - 39.1 = 70+2+0.3 - (30+9+0.1)

72.3 - 39.1 = 70+2+0.3 - 30-9-0.1

72.3 - 39.1  = 70-30+2-9+0.3-0.1

72.3 - 39.1 = 40 - 7 +0.2

72.3 - 39.1 = 4tens - 7ones + 2tenth

Answer:

72.3 - 39.1 = 70 + 2 + 0.3 + (-30) +(-9) + (0.1)

1. Find the area of a triangle (PLEASE ONLY in CM²) 2. Seven squared equals seven times .........

Answers

Answer:

30 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a triangle is calculated as

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] bh ( b is the base and h the height )

Here b = 6 and h = 10 , thus

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 6 × 10 = 3 × 10 = 30 cm²

and 7² = 7 × 7 = 49

Answer:

1)        30 cm²

2) Seven squared equals seven times 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Base = 6 cm

Height = 10 cm

Area of triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]*base * height

                          = [tex]\frac{1}{2} * 6 * 10[/tex]

                         = 3 * 10

                          = 30 cm²

Find f(x) and g(x) so the function can be expressed as y = f(g(x)). (1 point) [tex]y=\frac{7}{x^{2} } +10[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

The functions are [tex]f(x) = 7\cdot x+10[/tex] and [tex]g(x) = \frac{1}{x^{2}}[/tex], respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let suppose that [tex]g(x) = \frac{1}{x^{2}}[/tex], then [tex]f(g(x))[/tex] is:

[tex]f(g(x)) = 7\cdot \left(\frac{1}{x^{2}} \right) + 10[/tex]

[tex]f(g(x)) = 7\cdot g(x) + 10[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]f(x) = 7\cdot x + 10[/tex]

The functions are [tex]f(x) = 7\cdot x+10[/tex] and [tex]g(x) = \frac{1}{x^{2}}[/tex], respectively.

[tex]m>14 \wedge m\leq -4[/tex]

There's no solution. It is the first one already. There is no number that is both greater than 14 and less than or equal to -4. That is no solution because there's no [tex]m[/tex] that satisfy the compound inequality.

m > 14 and m < = -4

This has no solution

B. -6m >= 12 and m + 5 -18

cannot solve since missing inequality

C. -5m < 20 and 6m > -18

m > -4   and m > -3

Now considering the real world situation are there any restrictions or changes you need to make for your domain or range to fit the situation described above? If so adjust your graph to represent these changes. Considering the real situations above (Question D.)

Answers

Answer:

Ok, we have the function:

y = 2gb*x + 3gb

Where x is the number of streams that you did.

You know that for this function, in a math view, the domain and the range are the set of all real numbers.

(Actually the domain should be integers, but i guess that if you only stream a 0.3534 of a movie and then you quit it, here only consumed 0.3534*2gb, so we can allow x to be a real number)

But in a "real situation", there are some other restrictions:

Restrictions for x:

You can never have a negative value for x (because this has no sense)

So the first restriction is x ≥ 0.

Then, there should be a maximum value of x (you can not stream 4 million things in one month). Or A may be the number of streams that you can watch until you reach the monthly limit of Gbs.

Then the domain is:

0 ≤ x ≤ A.

Now, the minimum of the range is defined by the minimum in the domain:

When x = 0, we have:

y = 2*0 + 3gb

So the minimum value in the range is 3gb.

y ≥ 3gb

And then the maximum value of the range will be when x = A

y = 2Gb*A + 3Gb

3Gb ≤ y ≤ 2Gb*A + 3Gb

Answers

Answer:

[tex]4x^2-21x-2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Difference of two trinomials is [tex]x^2 - 10x + 2[/tex]

One of the two trinomials is  [tex]3x^2 - 11x - 4[/tex]

To find:

The other trinomial = ?

Four options are:

[tex]2x2 - x - 2 \\2x2 + x + 6 \\4x2 + 21x + 6\\ 4x2 - 21x - 2[/tex]

Solution:

Let the two trinomials be A and B.

Given A - B = [tex]x^2 - 10x + 2[/tex]

B = [tex]3x^2 - 11x - 4[/tex]

We have to find the other trinomial A.

A - B = [tex]x^2 - 10x + 2[/tex]

A - ([tex]3x^2 - 11x - 4[/tex]) = [tex]x^2 - 10x + 2[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow[/tex] A = [tex]x^2 - 10x + 2[/tex] + ([tex]3x^2 - 11x - 4[/tex])

[tex]\Rightarrow[/tex] A = [tex]4x^2-21x-2[/tex]

Find the value of z. A. 141 B. 110 C. 80 D. 100

Answers

Answer:

B. 110

Step-by-step explanation:

z is supplemental to 70°, so the add up to 180°

z+70°=180°

z=180°-70°

z=110°

Option B is correct. The required value of z is 110 degrees

Supplementary angles are angles summing up to 180 degrees. According to the circle geometry, we can see that z and 70 degrees lie on the same line, this shows that both angles are supplementary.

Since supplementary angles sum up to 180degrees, hence;

[tex]z + 70 = 180\\[/tex]

Subtract 70 from both sides

[tex]z+70-70=180-70\\z=110^0[/tex]

Hence the value of z is 70 degrees
