Answer:

The mode is 9 letters: True

The median is 7.5 letters: True

The mean is 7 letters: False

The graph is skewed right with an outlier of 2: False

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The mode is 9 letters. (True)

The mode is the value that shows up the most. 9 letters shows up the most as the length of a child's last name.

2) The median is 7.5 letters. (True)

The median is one of the middle points of a data set. This can be found by writing out all of the results from least to greatest, and crossing out each number starting from the ends.

2, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9, 9

Once you meet in the middle, you should be left with 7 and 8. In this case, we find the mean of the two numbers, which is 7.5. (In cases where the data set has an odd amount - if there were 13 children instead of 12), you'd just use the middle piece of data.

3) The mean is 7 letters. (False)

The mean is also a middle point of a data set. However, this one is different. The mean can be found by adding up all of the numbers in the data set (2+6+6+7+7+7+8+8+9+9+9+9) and then dividing that number by the amount of numbers are in the data set. Setting this up as an expression would look like: \frac{2+6+6+7+7+7+8+8+9+9+9+9}{12}. By plugging this into a calculator you'd get 7.25 instead of just 7.

4) The graph is skewed right with an outlier of 2.

Although the outlier of 2 part of the statement is correct, the graph is not skewed right; it is skewed left.

Which number is a solution of a² +4= 6a – 1?<br> 07<br> 6<br> 7<br> 8
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

a=1 or a=5

Step-by-step explanation:

a^{2}+4=6a−1

Step 1: Subtract 6a-1 from both sides.

a^{2}+4−(6a−1)=6a−1−(6a−1)

a^{2}−6a+5=0

Step 2: Factor left side of equation.

(a−1)(a−5)=0

Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.

a−1=0 or a−5=0

a=1 or a=5

(is it helpful rate me according to that

Thank You:-)

Q # ..19 anybody help me?
Goshia [24]

The equation of the line with slope m and passing through the point (x_0,y_0) is

y-y_0=m(x-x_0).

Since m=6 and the coordinates of the point are (8,3), then the equation is

y-3=6(x-8).

Answer: correct choice is B.
