Answer: The most appropriate measure of center is the median.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The measure of center generally represented by 1) mean 2) median 3) mode.
  • Mean is the best measure to represent the center of the data but when data have outliers it gets affected badly.
  • In that case, we use the Median as the best measure of center.

The given data is 12 10,9,68,12 .

As it can be seen that, the data have extreme value 68 ( called outliers).

In this case, we will use the Median as the best measure of center.

So, the most appropriate measure of center is the median.

What is the mean of 31, 29, 33, 37, 33, 38, 43 and 40?
horsena [70]

Answer: 35.5

Step-by-step explanation: The mean of a data set is equal to the sum of the set of numbers divided by how many numbers are in the set.

So to find the mean of the data set shown here, let's begin by adding the numbers.

31 + 29 + 33 + 37 + 33 + 38 + 43 + 40 = 284

284 will be divided by how many numbers are in the data set which is 8 so we have to divide 284 by 8.

248 ÷ 8 = 35.5

Therefore, the mean of the data set shown here is 35.5.

A pole is made to lean against a wall. The base of the pole is placed 7 feet
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

22.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean Theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

21^2 + 7^2 = c^2

441 + 49 = c^2

490 = c^2 (square root both sides so c^2 becomes c)

c = 22.13594363 (round to hundredths)

c = 22.14

Question 2-20
xeze [42]

Weight of one apple is 8 ounces.

We have to calculate the weight of one apple. For that firstly, we have to calculate the weight of one apple in pounds because we have been given the weight of 96 apples in pounds. After that, we will convert it into ounces and we know that one pound is equal to 16 ounces.

A bushel has 96 apples.

We have been given weight of 1 bushel which is 48 pounds.

Weight of 96 apples = 48 pounds

We have to calculate weight of one apple.

Weight of one apple = 48/96 = 1/2 pound

1 pound = 16 ounces.

Now, we have to convert pounds into ounces

Weight of one apple = 1/2 * 16 ounces

= 8 ounces

Hence, the answer is 8 ounces.

To find more about how to calculate weight.

Please help ASAP<br> Trigonometry
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use SOH CAH TOA to recall how the trig functions fit on a triangle

SOH: Sin(Ф)= Opp / Hyp

CAH: Cos(Ф)= Adj / Hyp

TOA: Tan(Ф) = Opp / Adj

7)

now decide which parts we know and what we want to slove for and pick the function that has those in it

we also know that small angle down at the point b/c we can use that the inside of trianle angles add to 180

180 = 75 + 90 + X

15° = X  

where x is the angle at that sharp point on the triangle

I want to use that 15° angle in one of the above formulas as it's Opposite of that side we want to know, and also adjcent to that side we know , so i'll pick TOA  since it's got all of those in it.  Opp = x for this triangle

Tan(15) =  Opp / 15

15* Tan(15) = Opp

4.0192 = Opp

so that's x  

x = 4.0162 units , what ever they are

8)

the angle is 43° and we know the adjacent side and we want the Hypotenuse , now i'll pic  CAH  since it's got those pieces in it

Cos(43)= 31 / Hyp

some algebra just to switch Hyp out of the denominator

Hyp = 31 / Cos(43)

some tapping on my calculator

Hyp = 41.714

That's x for the second triangle

x = 41.71 units , what ever they are
