Answer: 5.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the money invested has grown to $8300 and the principal was $600, this means the interest is:

= $8300 - $6500

= $1800

Simple interest = (Principal × Rate × Time)/100

1800 = (6500 × Rate × 5)/100

Cross multiply

1800 × 100 = 32500 × Rate

Rate = 180000/32500

Rate = 5.5%

The mean is a better descriptor for skewed distribution. <br> a. true <br> b. false
vitfil [10]
Most likely true. It depends. When the distribution is skewed with an extreme tilting it to one side, median would be a better measure of central tendency. If the extremities are almost balanced on both sides then mean would be a better measure of central tendency.
