Both mean and median are measures of the center of a set of data.
Mean is normally preffered to the median except if there is an outlier that has a tendency to affect the mean.
An outlier is a data point that significantly differs from the other data points in a sample.
In the data set above, there is no outlier that will affect the mean.
Therefore, he should use the mean because there are no outliers that affect the mean.
Answer:
12 sales
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of sales each man had.
For Salesman A, he earns $65 per sale; this is 65x.
For Salesman B, he earns $40 per sale; this is 40x. We also add to this his weekly salary of $300; this gives us 40x+300.
Since their pay was equal, set the two expressions equal:
65x = 40x+300
Subtract 40x from each side:
65x-40x = 40x+300-40x
25x = 300
Divide both sides by 25:
25x/25 = 300/25
x = 12
Answer:
The interval that represents the middle 68% of her commute times is between 33.5 and 42.5 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean of 38 minutes, standard deviation of 4.5 minutes.
Determine the interval that represents the middle 68% of her commute times.
Within 1 standard deviation of the mean. So
38 - 4.5 = 33.5 minutes
38 + 4.5 = 42.5 minutes.
The interval that represents the middle 68% of her commute times is between 33.5 and 42.5 minutes.
~Hello There!~
12/2 = 6
24/4 = 6
36/6 = 6
etc.
As you can see, y is always 6 times the value of x.
Therefore, the equation would be y = 6x
Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)
