The given stem and leaf plot leads to this data set
68,68,69,69
71,72,77,77,78,78
80,81
I broke it up to have each tens digit get its own row. That way it's bit more readable.
Unfortunately, the term "average" in math is very vague. It could mean one of the following
meanmedianmodeTo get the mean (specifically the arithmetic mean), we will add up the values and then divide by n = 12 because there are 12 values in the list above. Adding said values gets us
68+68+69+69+71+72+77+77+78+78+80+81 = 888
Dividing that over 12 then leads to 888/12 = 74
The arithmetic mean is 74.
-------------
To get the median, we would first sort the data set. Though that is already done for us. From here, we locate the middle-most item.
Since there are n = 12 items here, the middle item is between slot n/2 = 12/2 = 6 and slot 7
The values in slots 6 and 7 are 72 and 77 respectively. The midpoint of those values is (72+77)/2 = 149/2 = 74.5
The median is 74.5
-------------
The mode is possibly the quickest measure of center or average we can compute. We simply look at the value that shows up the most. In this case, the following values show up twice (which is the most frequent of all the values)
68697778They are all tied for the title of "mode". It's possible to have more than one mode, so we say the mode is the set {68,69,77,78}.
Due to the nature of multiple modes, the mode is often not a good measure of center (but it's still a possibility; especially for categorical data).
In this case, I think the mean or median is a better measure of center.
Since there aren't any outliers, the mean is the best measure of center in this case. Luckily, the mean and median (74 and 74.5 respectively) are fairly close to one another.
-------------
To summarize everything, the term "average" is too vague and it could refer to the mean, median or mode. In this problem, the mean is possibly the best measure of center since there aren't any outliers and the mode isn't one single value.
We found the following:
mean = 74median = 74.5mode = {68,69,77,78}It's very likely your teacher is wanting the mean.

Each side of a square is increasing at a rate of 4 cm/s. At what rate (in cm2/s) is the area of the square increasing when the area of the square is 25 cm2
Answers
Answer:
The area of the square is increasing at a rate of 40 square centimeters per second.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the square ([tex]A[/tex]), in square centimeters, is represented by the following function:
[tex]A = l^{2}[/tex] (1)
Where [tex]l[/tex] is the side length, in centimeters.
Then, we derive (1) in time to calculate the rate of change of the area of the square ([tex]\frac{dA}{dt}[/tex]), in square centimeters per second:
[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = 2\cdot l \cdot \frac{dl}{dt}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = 2\cdot \sqrt{A}\cdot \frac{dl}{dt}[/tex] (2)
Where [tex]\frac{dl}{dt}[/tex] is the rate of change of the side length, in centimeters per second.
If we know that [tex]A = 25\,cm^{2}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{dl}{dt} = 4\,\frac{cm}{s}[/tex], then the rate of change of the area of the square is:
[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = 2\cdot \sqrt{25\,cm^{2}}\cdot \left(4\,\frac{cm}{s} \right)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = 40\,\frac{cm^{2}}{s}[/tex]
The area of the square is increasing at a rate of 40 square centimeters per second.
We deposit $12000 into an account carning 3 % interest compounded continuously, How many years will it take
for the account to grow to $16800? Round to 2 decimal places,
Answers
Answer:
The answer is 13.33 year
Step-by-step explanation:
P = $12000
Rate = 3%
Amount = $16800
so,
I = A-P
= $16800 - $12000
= $4800
So,
T = (I × 100)/P×R
= (4800×100)/P×R
= 480000/($12000×3)
= 480000/36000
= 480/36
= 13.33 year

In 1980, the average cost of a pack of cigarettes was $0.88. In 2000, the average cost was $5.31 per pack.
What is the average rate of change of the cost of a pack of cigarettes? What is another name for the average rate of change?
Round your answer to the nearest cent.
Answers
Answer:
The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.
Another name for the average rate of change is slope.
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change of the cost of a pack ([tex]r[/tex]), in monetary units per year, is equal to the change in the average cost of a pack ([tex]\Delta c[/tex]), in monetary units, divided by the change in time ([tex]\Delta t[/tex]), in years. Then, the average rate of change is:
[tex]r = \frac{\$\,5.31-\$\,0.88}{2000-1980}[/tex]
[tex]r = \$\,0.22\,\frac{1}{yr}[/tex]
The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.
Another name for the average rate of change is slope.

Answers
Answer:
19 trains
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we need to calculate the difference in the number of hours
From the question, we have 7 am to 11 pm
7 am to 7 pm is 12 hours
7 pm to 11 pm is 4 hours
So total is 16 hours
16 hours to minutes is multiplied by 60 minutes
We have this as;
16 * 60 = 960 minutes
so to get the number of trains, we simply have to divide the number of minutes by 50
Mathematically, we have this as 960/50
= 19.2
Since we cannot have a fractional train stop, it means the number of trains that has stopped is 19

customer service representative when they call regarding disputed claims. A random sample
of 25 such calls yielded a mean waiting time of 22 minutes with a standard deviation of 6
minutes. Construct a 95% and 99% confidence interval for the population mean of such
waiting times. Explain what these interval means.
Answers
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean of such waiting times is between 19.5 and 24.5 minutes. This means that we are 95% sure that the true mean waiting time of all calls for this company is between 19.5 and 24.5 minutes.
The 99% confidence interval for the population mean of such waiting times is between 18.6 and 25.4 minutes. This means that we are 99% sure that the true mean waiting time of all calls for this company is between 18.6 and 25.4 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 25 - 1 = 24
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 24 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0639
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.0639\frac{6}{\sqrt{25}} = 2.5[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 22 - 2.5 = 19.5 minutes
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 22 + 2.5 = 24.5 minutes
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean of such waiting times is between 19.5 and 24.5 minutes. This means that we are 95% sure that the true mean waiting time of all calls for this company is between 19.5 and 24.5 minutes.
99% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 24 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995[/tex]. So we have T = 2.797
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.797\frac{6}{\sqrt{25}} = 3.4[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 22 - 3.4 = 18.6 minutes
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 22 + 3.4 = 25.4 minutes
The 99% confidence interval for the population mean of such waiting times is between 18.6 and 25.4 minutes. This means that we are 99% sure that the true mean waiting time of all calls for this company is between 18.6 and 25.4 minutes.

The mean temperature for the first 4 days in January was 1°C.
The mean temperature for the first 5 days in January was -1°C.
What was the temperature on the 5th day?
Answers
Answer:
The temperature on the 5th day was of -9ºC.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean of a data-set
The mean of a data-set is the sum of all values in the data-set divided by the number of values.
The mean temperature for the first 4 days in January was 1°C.
This means that during the first 4 days, the sum of the temperatures was 4*1 = 4ºC.
The mean temperature for the first 5 days in January was -1°C.
First 4 days: Sum of 4º
5th day: Temperature of x.
The mean is -1, so:
[tex]-1 = \frac{4 + x}{5}[/tex]
[tex]x + 4 = -5[/tex]
[tex]x = -9[/tex]
The temperature on the 5th day was of -9ºC.

tan(1)tan(2)....tan(89)=?
Recall tan(90-x)=cot(x) and cot(x)tan(x)=1.
tan(89)=tan(90-1)=cot(1)
tan(88)=tan(90-2)=cot(2)
tan(87)=tan(90-3)=cot(3)
...
tan(46)=tan(90-44)=cot(44)
tan(45)=tan(90-45)=cot(45)
So we can replace the last half of the factors with cotangent of the angles in the first half.
The only one that doesn't get a partner is the exact middle factor which is tan(45).
So this is whar we have:
tan(1)tan(2)tan(3)....tan(45)....cot(3)cot(2)cot(1)
So you should see that cot(1)tan(1)=1 and cot(2)tan(2)=1 and so on....
So the product equals tan(45) and tan(45)=1 using unit circle.
