Answer:
b. exam completion time is negatively skewed
Step-by-step explanation:
A data distribution is said to be negatively skewed when <em>median</em> value of the distribution is higher than the <em>average</em> value of the distribution.
In this example
- average mid-term completion time is 40 minutes
- median mid-term completion time is 55 minutes.
thus median > mean, so the mid-term completion time is negatively skewed. Negatively skewed distributions are also called left-skewed.
Laura's age is 9 years.
Solution:
Let x be the age of April.
Laura's age = 2 years more than half of April's age
<u>Convert statement into algebraic expression:</u>
Half of April's age = 
2 years more than half of April's age = 
Combined age of April and Laura = 23
⇒ April's age + Laura's age = 23
To add the fractions make the denominators same.
Multiplying 2 on both numerator and denominator of unlike terms, we get
Denominators are same, now add the fractions.
Do cross multiplication.
Aprils's age = 14 years
Laura's age = 
= 7 + 2
Laura's age = 9
Hence Laura's age is 9 years.
Answer:

Answer: 8
Explanation: Without the discount, 8 frozen yogurts for $4 will come to $32. Deduct $2 from the total cost (32-2), and now they're paying $30.
Answer:
-5/2 x -33/4
Step-by-step explanation:
(-11/2 x + 3) -2 (-11/4 x -5/2)
(-11/2 x + 3/1) -2 (-11/4 x -5/2)
The LCM of 2 and 1 is 2, and the LCM of 4 and 2 is 4.
(-11/2 x + 6/2) -2 (-11/4 x -20/4)
( -5/2x) -2 (-31/4)
-5/2x -2 -31/4
-5/2x -2/1 -31/4
LCM of -2 -31/4 is 4
-2/4 -31/4
-33/4
-5/2x -33/4 in simplest form.
