Answer:

The median, because the data distribution is skewed to the left

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is used to describe a set of data.

Answer:

The mean, because the data distribution is symmetrical.

Step-by-step explanation:

Without even knowing the mean or median this can be solved. The data isn't skewed to the left nor right, so it is symmetrical. The mean is the central value of numbers so it should represent the center well.

A librarian wants to spend no more than $800 on some new desks and chairs for the library. The librarian decides to spend $320 o
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

20 chairs

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given the amount total budget and the total amount for the desks then the only variable missing is the maximum amount of chairs. This can be solved with the following equation in which s represents the number of chairs, and we simply solve for s.

800 = 320 + 24s  ... subtract both sides by 300

500 = 24s ... divide both sides by 24

20.83 = s

Now we see that the maximum number of chairs that the librarian can buy is 20 because 21 would make her go over the budget and you cannot have 0.83 of a chair.

What is the inverse of this equation f(x) = 1/4(x+3)^2+2
Masja [62]

Answer:

y = √(4x - 8) - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1/4(x + 3)² + 2

To find the inverse, switch the places of the x and y.  

x = 1/4(y + 3)² + 2

Solve for y.

x - 2 = (1/4(y + 3)² + 2) - 2

x - 2 = 1/4(y + 3)²

4(x - 2) = 4(1/4(y + 3)²)

4x - 8 = (y + 3)²

√(4x - 8) = √((y + 3)²)

√(4x - 8) = y + 3

√(4x - 8) - 3 = (y + 3) - 3

√(4x - 8) - 3 = y

y = √(4x - 8) - 3

If the measure of arc AD is 65 degrees and the measure of arc BC is 45 degrees, what is the measure of angle BEC?
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

\angle BEC=55 \textdegree)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Arc AD =65 \textdegree

Arc BC =45 \textdegree

Given The angle of intersecting chords theorem

Generally the equation for angle BEC is mathematically given by

 \angle BEC=\frac{1}{2} (\angle of arc AD+\angle of arc BC)

 \angle BEC=\frac{1}{2} (65 \textdegree+45 \textdegree)

 \angle BEC=55 \textdegree)

A corner store sells two kinds of baked goods. Cakes and pies. Cakes costs $5 and pie cost $7. They sold 15 baked goods for 91$.
juin [17]
Cake=x
Pie=y

x+y=15
5x+7y=91

(x+y=15)-7
5x+7y=91

-7x+(-7y)=-105
5x+7y=91

-2x=-14
x=7

They sold 7 cakes
