In anatomy, a student learned that the average resting heart rate is between 60 and 100 beats per minute. The student decided to

record the heart rate of people over five minutes while waiting in line at the pharmacy. The dot plot shows the results.
Dot plot with 1 dot at 62, 3 dots at 68, 1 dot at 69, 2 dots at 70, 3 dots at 72, 2 dots at 75, 1 dot at 76, 2 dots at 78, 3 dots at 80, and 2 dots at 89

Which statement below best describes the shape of the distribution?

The data is roughly symmetrical distributed, with most values clustered from 68 to 80 beats per minute. The values at 62 and 89 are possible outliers. The data fits within the average of 60 to 100 beats per minute.
The data is not symmetrically distributed, with most values clustered from 68 to 80 beats per minute. The values at 62 and 89 are possible outliers. The data fits within the average of 60 to 100 beats per minute.
The data is skewed right, with fewer values on the right end of the graph. The values at 62 and 89 are possible outliers. The data fits within the average of 60 to 100 beats per minute.
The data is skewed left, with fewer values on the left end of the graph. The values at 62 and 89 are possible outliers. The data fits within the average of 60 to 100 beats per minute.

The shape of the distribution for the given dot plot is as follows:

The data is skewed right, with fewer values on the right end of the graph. The values at 62 and 89 are possible outliers. The data fits within the average of 60 to 100 beats per minute.

<h3>What does a dot plot show?</h3>

A dot plot shows the number of times that each measure appears in the data-set.

In the context of this problem, we have that from the given dot plot, the measures are as follows:

62, 68, 68, 68, 69, 70, 70, 72, 72, 72, 75, 75, 76, 78, 78, 80, 80, 80, 89, 89.

The mean is the sum of all observations divided by the number of observations, hence, applying it's formula, it is given by:

74.55.

The median is the middle value of the data-set, the value of which 50% of the measures are greater and 50% are less. The data-set in this problem has 20 elements, hence the median is the mean of the 10th and the 11th elements, which are 72 and 75, respectively, hence:

Median = (72 + 75)/2 = 73.5.

The median is less than the median, hence the distribution is skewed to the right, which means that the third option is correct.

Find the equaton of the line passing through the points (2,11) and (-8, -19) y= ?x ?​
antoniya [11.8K]

Find the slope:

(-19 - 11) / (-8 - 2) = (-30/-10) = 3

Find the y intercept:

y = mx + b

11 = 3(2) + b

b= 5

So equation is:

y = 3x + 5

D is the midpoint of CE. If CD= 2x+10 and DE =3x-18, find x and CE<br><br> x=<br> CE=
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

<h2>x = 28</h2><h2>CE = 132</h2><h2 />

Step-by-step explanation:

|<------------- CE -------------------->|

C-------------------D-------------------E

       2x + 10              3x - 18

2x + 10 = 3x - 18

2x - 3x = -18 - 10

-x = -28

x = 28

CE = 2x + 10 + 3x - 18

CE = 2(28) + 10 + 3(28) - 18

CE = 56 + 10 + 84 - 18

CE = 132
