Finding the proportionality constant :

y = k/x
16 = k/(1/2)
k = 8

Finding y when x = 17 :

y = 8/(17)
y = 8/17

The value of y is 8/17 when x = 17.

Carl and Tamera want to compare their tests in math class. They have taken six tests. Should they use the mean, median or mode t

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Mean

Step-by-step explanation:

I said mean because it would allow both Carl and Tamera to average their scores and compare one side by side rather than comparing 6 each which would just be time consuming and it seems like it wouldn't be any other choices.
