Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) Mean

(b) Mean

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Mean is influenced by two things, occurrence and difference in values. Mode is influenced by one thing only, occurrence. Median is positional in rank order so only indirectly influenced by value.

(b) The mean is the most accurate way of deriving the central tendencies of a group of values, not only because it gives a more precise value as an answer, but also because it takes into account every value in the list.

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is given by

x² = 5   be equation (1)

On simplifying the equation , we get

x² = 5

Taking the radical form , radical notation is the usage of a root in an expression, such as the square or cube root

So , taking square roots on both sides of the equation , we get

The value of x = ±√5

Therefore , the value of A is ±√5

Hence , The value of the equation is given by x = ± √5

The perimeter of a rectangle is less than 10 inches. The length is x and the width is x − 5. If the solution is x < 5, then the length is less than 5. Is this a viable solution?

Answers

Answer: it is a non viable solution

If the length is less than 5 then the width (x - 5) will be less than zero. A rectangle with no width does not exist so this solution is non-viable.

Mean is 82.4, median is 82, mode is 88, midrange is 78.5

Answers

Mean of a given set of data = Sum of all observations ÷ Total number of observations

Mean of this data set = 88 + 82 + 97 + 76 + 79 + 92 + 65 + 84 + 79 + 90 + 75 + 82 + 78 + 77 + 93 + 88 + 95 + 73 + 69 89 + 93 + 78 + 60 + 95 + 88 + 72 + 80 + 94 + 88 + 74

Mean = 2729 ÷ 30

Mean = 82.4

Median = the middle observation in a given set of data

Median of these test scores = 60 , 65 , 69 , 72 , 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 , 78 , 78 , 79 , 79 , 80 , 82 , 82 , 84 , 88 , 88 , 88 , 88 , 89 , 90 , 92 , 93 , 93 , 94 , 95 , 95 , 97 .

Median = 82 + 82 / 2

= 164 ÷ 2

= 82

Median = 82

Mode = most frequently occurring number in a given set of data .

Mode of these test scores =

= 60 = 1 time

= 65 = 1 time

= 69 = 1 time

= 72 = 1 time

= 73 = 1 time

= 74 = 1 time

= 75 = 1 time

= 76 = 1 time

= 77 = 1 time

= 78 = 2 times

= 79 = 2 times

= 80 = 1 time

= 82 = 2 times

= 84 = 1 time

= 88 = 4 times

= 89 = 1 time

= 90 = 1 time

= 92 = 1 time

= 93 = 2 times

= 94 = 1 time

= 95 = 2 times

= 97 = 1 time

Mode = 88

Midrange = average of the largest and smallest number in a given set of data

Midrange of these test scores = 97 + 60 / 2

= 97 + 60 / 2

= 157 ÷ 2

= 78.5

Midrange = 78.5

Therefore , the correct option is :-

Which graph represents the inequality y < -1 + 2x?

Answers

Answer:

The graph is attached down

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the linear inequality is y < b + m x, where

m is the slope of the lineb is the y-intercept, the point of intersection between the line and the y-axis (0, b)The solution of the inequality is the area under the line  

To find which graph represents the inequality y < -1 + 2x

→ Find the y-intercept (the value of y at x = 0)

∴ b = -1

∴ The y-intercept is (0, -1)

From the given graphs we have two graphs that the line intersected the y-axis at (0, -1)

2nd graph in the 1st row

2nd graph in the 2nd row

∵ The sign of inequality is <

∴ The shaded area must be under the line

∴ The 2nd graph in the 1st row is our answer

A public health department wants to determine the rate that parents of teen boys are choosing to vaccinate their sons for HPV within the state of Indiana. They conduct a survey of 64 randomly selected families of teen boys.They found that 12% of families had chosen to vaccinate. Which of the following is true?A. The 95% confidence interval is 12% ± the margin of error*standard deviationB. The confidence interval should not be calculated due to the small sample sizeC. A 99% confidence interval will be smaller than the 90% confidence intervalD. The central limit theorem applies to proportions only when the population standard deviation is known

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is  B

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  sample size is  [tex]n  =  64[/tex]

    The  proportion that choose to vaccinate the teen boys is  [tex]\r p =  0.12[/tex]

considering the first statement

The 95% confidence interval is 12% ± the margin of error*standard deviation is  false because

The 95% confidence interval is is  %12 ± the margin of error

considering the second statement

The confidence interval should not be calculated due to the small sample size is true because from the central limit theorem

   np =  64 * 0.12 =  7.68

and this value is  less than 10  hence the confidence interval should not be calculated

considering the third statement

A 99% confidence interval will be smaller than the 90% confidence interval is false

  This is because as the confidence level increase (for example  from 90% to  99%) the margin of error increase which increases the confidence interval

A straight angle is split into the ratio of 3:1:4. Find the measure of each angle.

Answers

Answer:

Let the parts be given as x,

180° = 3x + 1x + 4x (Because a straight angle = 180°)

=> 180° = 8x

=> 180 / 8 = x (By the law of transposition)

=> 22.5 = x

Therefore the three different angles are :

67.5° , 22.5° , 90° respectively

Check,

=> 67.5 + 22.5 + 90

=> 90 + 90

=> 180°

The length of a rectangle is 4 less than three times the width. The area of the rectangle is given by the formula A = l × w. Which of the following equations could be used to find the area?
Question 19 options:

A)

A = 4w2 – 3w

B)

A = w2 – 4w

C)

A = 3w2 – 4w

D)

A = 3w2 – w

Answers

Answer:

C) A = [tex]3w^{2} - 4w[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, read through what the question is asking.

Now, read it again, but slowly and take in everything it is saying (Don't read into it too slowly, or else you will over-complicate the problem and get frustrated - told from experience :) )

Alright, 4 less than 3 times the width. So, lets rearrange this and give width a variable (w).

So, the length is equal to:

l = 3w - 4

and the width is equal to:

w = w

The area of a rectangle is A = l * w

Let's plug in the values.

A = (3w - 4) * w

Now, simplify:

A = [tex]3w^{2} - 4w[/tex]

A = [tex]3w^{2} - 4w[/tex] is your final answer.
