Proportionality indicates how quantity vary in relation with other quantities. There are two types of proportionality, that is direct proportionality where an increase or a decrease in a quantity causes a corresponding increase or decrease in the other variable and inverse proportionality where decrease in a variable causes an increase in the other variable and vicevarsa. In this case the 15 paperclips have a total weight of 2 grams therefore each clip contributes a weight of 0.0133 grams, thus increasing the paperclips also increases the total weight. Thus, the number of paper clips is direct proportional to the total weight

PLEASE HELP ME! Find the cube roots of 125(cos 288° + i sin 288°).
shutvik [7]
◆ COMPLEX NUMBERS ◆

125 ( cos 288 + i sin 288 )  can be written as -

125.e^i( 288) 
125.e^i( 288 +360 ) 
125.e^i( 288+ 720)

[ As , multiples of 360 can be added to an angle without changing any trigonometric functions or sign ]

To find the cube root , take the cube root of above 3 expressions ,

We get -
5 e^( i 96 ) 
5 e^( i 216 )  
5 e^( i 336 )

Now using Euler's formula , We rewrite above as -

5 ( cos 96 + i sin 96 ) 
5(c os 216 + i sin 216 ) 
5 ( cos 336 + i sin 336 ) Ans.

weeeeeb [17]
(12,200 + 16,211 + 12,050 + 11,350 + 13,325) / 5 = 65136/5 = 
13027.2 <== this is the mean (average)

11,350 , 12,050 , 12,200 , 13,325, 16,211
median (middle number) = 12,200

there is no mode...a mode is a number that appears most often...all the numbers appear once in this data.
