Answer:

As data distribution is symmetric for Coffee Shop A and data distribution is not symmetric for Coffee Shop B.

Therefore, option 4) is correct which states that "Mean for shop A because the data distribution is symmetric; median for shop B because the data distribution is not symmetric".

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for Coffee Shop A: 

The data distribution for shop A:

55, 52, 56, 48, 57, 30, 45, 41

Arrange the data in ascending order.

30, 41, 45, 48, 52, 55, 56, 57

Mean for shop A:

Mean = (30 + 41 + 45 + 48 + 52 + 55 + 56 + 57)/8 = 48

$Median=\frac{(\frac{n}{2})th+(\frac{n}{2}+1)th}{2}=\frac{48+52}{2}=50$

As Mean and Median are close. Hence, data distribution is symmetric for Coffee Shop A.

Calculation for Coffee Shop B: 

The data distribution for shop B:

45, 42, 57, 48, 11, 10, 46, 43

Arrange the data in ascending order.

10, 11, 42, 43, 45, 46, 48, 57

Mean for shop B:

Mean = (10 + 11 + 42 + 43 + 45 + 46 + 48 + 57)/8 = 37.75

$Median=\frac{(\frac{n}{2})th+(\frac{n}{2}+1)th}{2}=\frac{43+45}{2}=44$

As Mean and Median are not close. Hence, data distribution is not symmetric for Coffee Shop B.

As data distribution is symmetric for Coffee Shop A and data distribution is not symmetric for Coffee Shop B.

Therefore, option 4) is correct which states that "Mean for shop A because the data distribution is symmetric; median for shop B because the data distribution is not symmetric".

I need help with this plz

Ksju [112]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Brandy earns 2 stars for every goal, and she scored 8 goals, then we need to multiply 8 by 2.

8 x 2 = 16

She looses 1/2 a star for every miss, and she missed the goal 12 times. Therefore, we need to multiply 1/2 by 12.

12 x 1/2 = 6

Therefore, Brandy lost 6 stars.

Now, we need to subtract the amount of stars Brandy earned by the amount that she lost.

16 - 6 = 10

Therefore, the correct answer is D. 10.

Hope this helps! :D

Madelyn is working two summer jobs, making $20 per hour lifeguarding and making $12 per hour clearing tables. In a given week, s

Kamila [148]

Answer:

The possible values of the number of hours clearing tables are 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Madelyn is making $20 per hour life guarding

- She is making $12 per hour clearing tables

- She can work no more than 13 total hours

∴ The greatest time she can work is 13 hours (≤)

- She must earn no less than $180

∴ The least money she wants to earn is $180 (≥)

- If Madelyn worked 8 hours life guarding and assume that she

worked x hours clearing tables

∵ She can work no more than 13 hours

∴ 8 + x ≤ 13

- Subtract 8 from both sides

∴ x ≤ 5 ⇒ (1)

∵ She must earn no less than $180

∴ 8 × 20 + x × 12 ≥ 180

∴ 160 + 12x ≥ 180

- Subtract 60 from both sides

∴ 12x ≥ 20 ⇒ (2)

- From equation (1) ⇒ x = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5

- Substitute x in equation (2) by these values to find the right values

of x

# If x = 1

∴ 12(1) ≥ 20

- But 12 is less than 20

∴ x can not be 1

# x = 2

∴ 12(2) ≥ 20

∴ 24 ≥ 20

- 24 is greater than 20 then x can be 2

∵ 3 , 4 , 5 greater than 2

∴ All of them give answers greater than 20

∴ x can be 3 , 4, 5

∵ x represents the number of hours for clearing tables

∴ The possible values of the number of hours clearing tables are

2 , 3 , 4 , 5 hours

Write a formula for the general term or nth term for the sequence. Then find the indicated term. five halves comma five fourths

nadya68 [22]

Sequence: 5/2, 5/4, 5/8, 5/16
a8=?

a1=5/2
a2=5/4
a3=5/8
a4=5/16

a2/a1=(5/4)/(5/2)=(5/4)*(2/5)=(5*2)/(4*5)=2/4=1/2
a3/a2=(5/8)/(5/4)=(5/8)*(4/5)=(5*4)/(8*5)=4/8=1/2
a4/a3=(5/16)/(5/8)=(5/16)*(8/5)=(5*8)/(16*5)=8/16=1/2
Ratio: r=a2/a1=a3/a2=a4/a3→r=1/2

an=a1*r^(n-1)
a1=5/2, r=1/2
an=(5/2)*(1/2)^(n-1)
an=(5/2)*[1^(n-1)/2^(n-1)]
an=(5/2)*[1/2^(n-1)]
an=(5*1)/[2*2^(n-1)]
an=5/2^(1+n-1)
an=5/2^n

n=8→a8=5/2^8
a8=5/256

Answers:
The formula for the general term or nth term for the sequence is an=5/2^n
a8=5/256
