The athletic departments at 10 randomly selected U.S. universities were asked by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission to state what percentage of their nursing scholarships were presently held by women. The responses were 5, 4, 2, 1, 1, 2, 10, 2, 3, 5.

Required:
Find the mean, median, mode, and geometric mean. Which is the most appropriate measure of central tendency? The least appropriate? Explain your answer. Is there an outlier?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Mean = 3.5 , median = 2.5, mode = 2, geometric mean = 2.74

Median is the most appropriate measure of central tendency.

The least appropriate = mean

Yes there is an outlier.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given responses : 5, 4, 2, 1, 1, 2, 10, 2, 3, 5.

First arrange them in increasing order, [tex]\sqrt[10]{1\times1\times2\times2\times2\times3\times4\times5\times5\times10 }\\\\=\sqrt[10]{24000} \approx2.74[/tex]

Its sum = 35

Mean of n observations = (Sum of observations) ÷ n

Mean = (35) ÷ 10

=3.5

Here n =10 (even)

Median = average of middle most numbers = [tex]\dfrac{2+3}{2}=\dfrac52=2.5[/tex]

Mode = most repeated number = 2    (thrice)

geometric mean = [tex]\sqrt[n]{x_1\times x_2\times.... x_n}[/tex]

10 is an outlier as it is very large as compare to other numbers.

When outlier is present in data , the median is the most appropriate measure of central tendency.

Mean affected badly by the outlier so it the least appropriate.

Daniel's age is 15% of
Sarah's. Luke's age is 75% of
Sarah's and 300% of Daniel's.
When they added their ages,
the total was 141. How old is
Rachel?

Answers

Answer:

27 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Full question isDaniel's age is 15% of Sara's. Luke's age is 75% of Sara's and Rachel's is 300% of Daniel's. When they added their ages, the total was 141. How old is Rachel? Solution

Daniel = d, Sara = s, Luke = l, Rachel = r

We get below relations:

d = 0.15sl = 0.75sr = 3d ⇒ r = 3*0.15s  ⇒ r = 0.45s

Sum of ages:

d + s + l + r = 141

Substitute and solve for s:

0.15s + s + 0.75s + 0.45s = 1412.35s = 141s = 141/2.35s = 60

Rachel's age is:

r = 0.45*60 = 27

The aquarium has a scale model of a great white shark for sale in their gift shop. If the scale of the model is 2 in. : 7 ft, what is the actual length of the shark if the shark is 4in?

Answers

Answer:

14ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the scale is 2in : 7ft, so you would do 7x2 which gets you to 14.

(You would do 7x2 because 4 in/2 in = 2in, that's where the 2 comes from, and 7 because 7ft is part of the scale.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Common Sense

The number of different ways committees can be formed will be 21.

What are permutation and combination?

A permutation is an act of arranging items or elements in the correct order. Combinations are a way of selecting items or pieces from a group of objects or sets when the order of the components is immaterial.

A committee is to consist of two members.

If there are seven people available to serve on the committee.

If two people are selected from the group of seven people.

Then the number of different ways committees can be formed will be

⇒ ⁷C₂

⇒ 7! / [(7 – 2)! x 2!]

⇒ 7! / [5! x 2!]

⇒ 7 x 6 x 5! / [5! x 2 x 1]

⇒ 7 x 6 / 2

⇒ 7 x 3

⇒ 21

Thus, the number of different ways committees can be formed will be 21.

Scale factor = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for the scale factor,

Scale factor = [tex]\frac{\text{Measure of one side of the Image}}{\text{Measure of one side of the preimage}}[/tex]

In this question, image is triangle Y and preimage is triangle X.

Scale factor of X to Y = [tex]\frac{15}{10}[/tex]

                                    = 1.5

Therefore, scale factor = 1.5 is the answer.

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (2, -8).
Put your answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal
line.

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (2, -8) is [tex]\mathbf{y=-8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write the equation of the line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (2, -8).

We need to write answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal  line.

The general equation of point-slope form is: [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

where m is slope of the line.

To find the slope, we can use formula: [tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We have [tex]x_1=7,y_1=-8,x_2=2, y_2=-8[/tex]

Putting values and finding slope:

[tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{-8-(-8)}{2-7}\\Slope=\frac{-8+8}{-5}\\Slope=\frac{0}{-5}\\Slope=0[/tex]

So, we find the slope : m = 0

Now, using the point (7,-8) and slope m =0, the required equation is:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-(-8)=0(x-7)\\y+8=0\\y=-8[/tex]

So, the equation of the line that passes through the points (7,-8) and (2, -8) is [tex]\mathbf{y=-8}[/tex]
