To find the change, we need to subtract.

8 3/4 - 4 3/5

We need a common denominator to find the answer.

3*5/4*5 = 15/20

8 15/20

3*4/5*4 = 12/20

4 12/20

Now we can properly subtract

8-4=4

15-12
-------- = 
  20 

3/20 

Now we have our final answer: 4 3/20

The change : 4 3/20

There are six households in a rural community. Each household earns $40,000 per year. Suppose that a new resident builds a mansi
dusya [7]

Answer:

Median income has not changed

Mean income has increased

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial number of houses = 6

Earning per household = $40,000

The initial mean :

$(40,000 * 6) / 6 = $40000

Initial median :

40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 40000

= 1/2(n+1)th term,

Median = 40000

A 7th household earns 4,000,000

Mean = ((40000*6) + 4,000,000) / 7 = $605,714

Median = 1/2(n+1)th term

40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 40000, 4000000

Median = 4th term = 40000
