Each of the 5 saw 15 birds a day, so they saw 75 each day for 14 days. 75 times 14 is 1,050. They saw in total, 1,050 birds.

Find the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints at the given coordinates (-6,6) and (-3,-9)

JulsSmile [24]

The midpoint of the line segment with endpoints at the given coordinates (-6,6) and (-3,-9) is $\left(\frac{-9}{2}, \frac{-3}{2}\right)$

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, two points are (-6, 6) and (-3, -9)

We have to find the midpoint of the segment formed by the given points.

The midpoint of a segment formed by $\left(\mathrm{x}_{1}, \mathrm{y}_{1}\right) \text { and }\left(\mathrm{x}_{2}, \mathrm{y}_{2}\right)$ is given by:

$\text { Mid point } \mathrm{m}=\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}\right)$

$\text { Here in our problem, } x_{1}=-6, y_{1}=6, x_{2}=-3 \text { and } y_{2}=-9$

Plugging in the values in formula, we get,

$\begin{array}{l}{m=\left(\frac{-6+(-3)}{2}, \frac{6+(-9)}{2}\right)=\left(\frac{-6-3}{2}, \frac{6-9}{2}\right)} \\\\ {=\left(\frac{-9}{2}, \frac{-3}{2}\right)}\end{array}$

Hence, the midpoint of the segment is $\left(\frac{-9}{2}, \frac{-3}{2}\right)$

What is the probability of having 3 children that are all boys?

olganol [36]

So you have a 50% chance to have a boy vs a girl (1/2). If you want 3 children, that would be 1/3*1/2= 1/6 or 16.67% chance

Consider a sample with data values of 27, 24, 21, 16, 30, 33, 28, and 24. Compute the 20th, 25th, 65th, and 75th percentiles. 20

densk [106]

Answer:

$P_{20} = 20$ --- 20th percentile

$P_{25} = 21.75$ --- 25th percentile

$P_{65} = 27.85$ --- 65th percentile

$P_{75} = 29.5$ --- 75th percentile

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

27, 24, 21, 16, 30, 33, 28, and 24.

N = 8

First, arrange the data in ascending order:

Arranged data: 16, 21, 24, 24, 27, 28, 30, 33

Solving (a): The 20th percentile

This is calculated as:

$P_{20} = 20 * \frac{N +1}{100}$

$P_{20} = 20 * \frac{8 +1}{100}$

$P_{20} = 20 * \frac{9}{100}$

$P_{20} = \frac{20 * 9}{100}$

$P_{20} = \frac{180}{100}$

$P_{20} = 1.8th\ item$

This is then calculated as:

$P_{20} = 1st\ Item +0.8(2nd\ Item - 1st\ Item)$

$P_{20} = 16 + 0.8*(21 - 16)$

$P_{20} = 16 + 0.8*5$

$P_{20} = 16 + 4$

$P_{20} = 20$

Solving (b): The 25th percentile

This is calculated as:

$P_{25} = 25 * \frac{N +1}{100}$

$P_{25} = 25 * \frac{8 +1}{100}$

$P_{25} = 25 * \frac{9}{100}$

$P_{25} = \frac{25 * 9}{100}$

$P_{25} = \frac{225}{100}$

$P_{25} = 2.25\ th$

This is then calculated as:

$P_{25} = 2nd\ item + 0.25(3rd\ item-2nd\ item)$

$P_{25} = 21 + 0.25(24-21)$

$P_{25} = 21 + 0.25(3)$

$P_{25} = 21 + 0.75$

$P_{25} = 21.75$

Solving (c): The 65th percentile

This is calculated as:

$P_{65} = 65 * \frac{N +1}{100}$

$P_{65} = 65 * \frac{8 +1}{100}$

$P_{65} = 65 * \frac{9}{100}$

$P_{65} = \frac{65 * 9}{100}$

$P_{65} = \frac{585}{100}$

$P_{65} = 5.85\th$

This is then calculated as:

$P_{65} = 5th + 0.85(6th - 5th)$

$P_{65} = 27 + 0.85(28 - 27)$

$P_{65} = 27 + 0.85(1)$

$P_{65} = 27 + 0.85$

$P_{65} = 27.85$

Solving (d): The 75th percentile

This is calculated as:

$P_{75} = 75 * \frac{N +1}{100}$

$P_{75} = 75 * \frac{8 +1}{100}$

$P_{75} = 75 * \frac{9}{100}$

$P_{75} = \frac{75 * 9}{100}$

$P_{75} = \frac{675}{100}$

$P_{75} = 6.75th$

This is then calculated as:

$P_{75} = 6th + 0.75(7th - 6th)$

$P_{75} = 28 + 0.75(30- 28)$

$P_{75} = 28 + 0.75(2)$

$P_{75} = 28 + 1.5$

$P_{75} = 29.5$
