The least likely measure of central tendency to be used would be; The range.

<h3>How to identify measures of central tendency?</h3>

We are given the points scored by the basketball team as;

84, 67, 74, 87, 67, 73

Now, the three major measures of central tendency are mean, median and mode.

Mean is the average while mode is the most frequent item while median is the middle term when arranged in ascending order.

However, when discussing their year, what the paper would like to know is their average amount of points per game for the year and as such he will use the mean.

However, the least likely measure of central tendency to be used would be the range.

The length of a rectangle is 5 ft less than three times the width, and the area of the rectangle is 50 ft². Find the dimensions
Mariulka [41]

Answer

Length = 10 ft

Width = 5 ft

Explanation

Area of the rectangle given = 50 ft²

Let the width of the rectangle be x

So this means the length of the rectangle will be 3x - 5

What to find:

The dimensions of the rectangle.

Step-by-step solution:

Area of a rectangle = length x width

i.e A = L x W

Put A = 50, L = 3x - 5, W = x into the formula.

\begin{gathered} 50=(3x-5)x \\ 50=3x^2-5x \\ 3x^2-5x-50=0 \end{gathered}

The quadratic equation can now be solve using factorization method:

\begin{gathered} 3x^2-5x-50=0 \\ 3x^2-15x+10x-50=0 \\ 3x(x-5)+10(x-5)=0 \\ (3x+10)(x-5)=0 \\ 3x+10=0\text{ }or\text{ }x-5=0 \\ 3x=-10\text{ }or\text{ }x=5 \\ x=-\frac{10}{3}\text{ }or\text{ }x=5 \end{gathered}

Since the dimension can not be negative, hence the value of x will be = 5.

Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle will be:

\begin{gathered} Length=3x-5=3(5)-5=15-5=10\text{ }ft \\  \\ Width=x=5\text{ }ft \end{gathered}

El jefe de ventas comenta con tu padre que los 9.000 vehículos del mes pasado suponen unos buenos resultados, pero que este mes
Alja [10]

Answer:

900

Step-by-step explanation:

10% de 9000 es 900

Trabajando el 10% de 9000

Escribe 10% como 10100

Dado que, encontrar la fracción de un número es lo mismo que multiplicar la fracción por el número, tenemos

10100 de 9000 = 10100 × 9000

Por tanto, la respuesta es 900

Si está utilizando una calculadora, simplemente ingrese 10 ÷ 100 × 9000, lo que le dará 900 como respuesta.

The admission fee at a carnival fair is $4.50 for children
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Adult=1,385.71

Children=814.29

Approximately

Adult=1386

Children=814

Step-by-step explanation:

c= number of children

a= number of adults

Admission fee for children=$4.50

Admission fee for adults=$8.00

Total attendees=2200

Total amount realized=$5050

We need two equations to solve the two unknowns

c + a=2200 (1)

4.50c + 8.00a=5,050 (2)

From (1)

c + a=2200

c=2200 - a

Substitute c=2200 - a into (2)

4.50c + 8.00a=5,050

4.50(2200 - a) + 8.00a=5050

9900 - 4.50a +8.00a=5050

Collect like terms

9900-5050= -4.50a+8.00a

4,850=3.5a

Divide both sides by 3.5

1,385.71=a

Substitute a=1,385,71 into (1)

c + a=2200

c+1385.71=2200

c=2200-1385.71

=814.29

c=814.29
