Going by the data given, the best center of distribution to use in terms of mean and median is D) Mean for Bakery A because the data is symmetric; median for Bakery B because the data is not symmetric.

<h3>What centers of distribution should be used?</h3>

The mean should be used for data sets that are symmetric while the median should be used for data that is not symmetric.

The data is said to be symmetric when the mean and median are equal or very close.

Bakery A mean:

= (45 + 52 + 51 48 + 61 + 34 + 55 46) / 8

= 49

Bakery A median is 49.5

Bakery B mean:

= (48 42 + 25 45 + 57 + 10 + 43 + 46 ) / 8

= 39.5

Bakery B median is 44.

This shows that Bakery A data is symmetric so the best center of distribution to use is mean.

Bakery B is not symmetric so the center of distribution to use is median.

You decide to put $150 in a savings account to save for a $3,000 down payment on a new car. If the account has an interest rate

zheka24 [161]

The formula is
A=p (1+r/k)^kt
A future value 3000
P present value 150
R interest rate 0.025
T time?
3000=150 (1+0.025/12)^12t
Solve for t
3000/150=(1+0.025/12)^12t
Take the log
Log (3000/150)=log (1+0.025/12)×12t
12t=Log (3000/150)÷log (1+0.025/12)
T=(log(3,000÷150)÷log(1+0.025÷12))÷12
T=119.95 years

Answer:

1. H = 29 cm

2. θ = 44°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We can find the height of the triangle by considering the isosceles triangle as two right triangles. The height can be found by using Pitagoras:

$L^{2} = H^{2} + B^{2}$
