Answer:

Mean = 2.95

Median = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of the number of visits of 40 adults to the gym is

\dfrac{0\cdot 4+1\cdot 3+2\cdot 12+3\cdot 5+4\cdot 8+5\cdot 5+6\cdot 2+7\cdot 1}{40}=\\ \\=\dfrac{3+24+15+32+25+12+7}{40}=\dfrac{118}{40}=2.95

The median of the data is the average number between 20th and 21th terms (because 40 is even number, so the middle term is the average between two middle terms).

20th term = 3 visits

21th term = 3 visits

Hence, median is 3 visits

Ilya [14]

Answer:

a₁ = 38

Step-by-step explanation:

Given AP, where:

  • 8a₈ = 12a₁₂
  • d = -2,
  • a₁ = ?

=============

<h3>Solution</h3>

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d

  • a₈ = a₁ + 7d = a₁ + 7*(-2) = a₁ - 14
  • a₁₂ = a₁ + 11d = a₁ + 11*(-2) = a₁ - 22

8a₈ = 12a₁₂

  • 8(a₁ - 14) = 12(a₁ - 22)
  • 2(a₁ - 14) = 3(a₁ - 22)
  • 2a₁ - 28 = 3a₁ - 66
  • 3a₁ - 2a₁ = -28 + 66
  • a₁ = 38

In ΔBCD, \overline{BD}
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

30degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Exterior angle m<CDE = 7x - 19 degrees

interior angles are

m<BCD = 2x - 1

m<DBC = x+10

Since the sum of the interior angles is equal to the exterior, hence;

2x - 1 + x+10 = 7x - 19

3x + 9 = 7x - 19

3x - 7x = -19 - 9

-4x = -28

x = 28/4

x = 7

Get m<CDE

m<CDE = 7x - 19

m<CDE = 7(7) - 19

m<CDE = 49 - 19

m<CDE = 30degrees
