Answer:

2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that point J(-2,1) and point K(4,5) form line segment JK. The point P partitions JK in the ratio 3:7.

To find the y-coordinate of point P we will use section formula, when a point A divides a segment JK internally in the ratio m:n.      

[x=\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},y=\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}]  

Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,

[x=\frac{3*4+7*-2}{3+7},y=\frac{3*5+7*1}{3+7}]

[x=\frac{12-14}{10},y=\frac{15+7}{10}]

[x=\frac{-2}{10},y=\frac{22}{10}]

[x=-0.2,y=2.2]  

Therefore, the y-coordinate of point P is 2.2.

If J(x_1,y_1) and K(x_2,y_2) are two points, then P(\frac{nx_1+mx_2}{m+n},\frac{ny_1+my_2}{m+n}) partitions JK in the ratio, m:n.

The y-coordinate of P is

y=\frac{ny_1+my_2}{m+n}=\frac{7*1+3*5}{3+7}=\frac{11}{5}

Hey there,

To solve this problem, let us first define what is mean and median. Mean is the average of all the numbers in the data set while the median is the number in the middle of the data set in ascending order. If we create a box plot for the data of Rome and New York, we can see that there is an outlier in the data for New York. Since New York has an outlier, so the mean is not a good representation on the central tendency of the data. The mean is skewed (distorted) by the outlier. So in this case it is better to use the median. While the Rome data is nice and symmetrical, it does not seem to have an outlier,  so we can use the mean for this data set.

Therefore the answer is:

The Rome data center is best described by the mean. The New York data center is best described by the median

Answer:

A table that has (0,0), (-1,1), (-4, 2) and undefined for any positive x value

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflecting across the y axis just changes the x values, it makes them negative.  so \sqrt{x} has points (0,0), (1,1), (4, 2) and so on.  reflecting over the y axis makes them(0,0), (-1,1), (-4, 2) and again so on.

Also good to mention in \sqrt{x} negative x values are undefined, so flipped over the y axis positive x values are undefined.

As for the answer it doesn't look like any of those shown.  The first one is close, but the x values would need to swap their signs.
