Add the ratio together:  2 + 5 = 7
Divide this by the total number of plants;
70/7 = 10

Now times the ration by this number:
2:5 becomes 20:50 (times by 10)
This tells us we have 20 tulips as 50 daisies

Mark wants to improve his free throw percentage in basketball He has shot 1,250 free throws over the last 20 days. He shot eithe
Sedaia [141]
Let's use a for number of days when he shot 50 shots and b for number of days when he shot 100 shots.
We have:
a + b = 20

We also know that he shot total of 1250 shots:
50a + 100 b = 1250

We have two equations. We can solve them for a and b.  Let's rearange first equation for a:
a= 20 - b
We insert this into second equation:
50 * (20 - b ) + 100b = 1250
1000 - 50b + 100b = 1250
50b = 250
b = 5
a = 20 - 5
a = 15

Mark shot 100 shots on 5 days.

Given the box plot, will the mean or the median provide a better description of the center?
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The mean, because the data distribution is symmetrical.

Step-by-step explanation:

Without even knowing the mean or median this can be solved. The data isn't skewed to the left nor right, so it is symmetrical. The mean is the central value of numbers so it should represent the center well.
