If we plot the data on the graph, we can see that the data is skewed to the right (positive skew) and there is an outlier. In skewed data and presence of outlier, the median is most commonly used measure of central tendency. This is because a positive skew would result in a positive bias to the mean. Meaning that it would be a lot larger than the median and not really representing the actual central tendency. The median however is less affected by the skew and outliers.

Answer: Median, because the data are skewed and there is an outlier

What steps should be taken to calculate the volume of the prism? Select three options. A rectangular prism with a length of 9 an

fgiga [73]

The steps to be taken to determine the volume of the rectangular prism are:

Use A = bh to find the area of the base.

Use V = Bh to find the volume of the prism.

Volume of the prism, V = (228)(6) = 1,368 feet cubed.

<h3>How to Find the Volume of a Rectangular Prism?</h3>

A rectangular prism has a height, base, and width. The volume of the rectangular prism can be found by using the following steps:

Find the base area of the rectangular prism using the formula, A = bh, where b is the base length and h is the height of the base.
Then, find the Volume using the formula, V = Bh, where B is the base area and h is the height of the prism.

Parameters are:

Length of prism = 9 and one-half feet,

Width of prism = 24 feet,

Height of prism = 6 feet

Given the dimensions of the rectangular prism above, do the following:

Find the area of the base of the rectangular prism:

Area of base = (9 1/2)(24) = 228 cm²

Find the Volume of the prism using V = Bh :

Volume of the prism = (228)(6) = 1,368 feet cubed.

Therefore, the steps to be taken to determine the volume of the rectangular prism are:

Use A = bh to find the area of the base.
Use V = Bh to find the volume of the prism.
Volume of the prism, V = (228)(6) = 1,368 feet cubed.

Help with 4 and 5 please!!

Question 4
The magnitude;
Using Pythagoras theorem,
(-200)² + (-530)² = 320900
Length = √320900
= 566.5 mi
To get the angle
Tan θ = opposite/adjacent
= 200/530
= 0.3774
θ = tan^-1 (0.3774)
= 20.67
≈ 21°
The direction from the Cartesian plane is south of west.
Therefore, the magnitude and the direction will be;
About 566.5 mi, 21° south of west

Question 5.
To get the resultant of two vectors we just add the two vectors given.
This involves adding the corresponding values.
Thus, for <-6,5> and <6,-5>
Resultant vector = <(-6+6),(5+-5>
= <0,0>

Look at the information below. The sum of the measures of angle M and angle R is 90°. © The measure of angle M is (5x + 10). The

kupik [55]

Answer:

Solution given;

<M=5x+10

<R=55

<M+<R=90°

5x+10+55=90°[is a required equation]

now solving it

5x=90-65

5x=25

x=25/5

x=5is your answer.
