Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the middle value of the data in ascending order. If there is no exact middle then it is the average of the two values either side of the middle.

Arrange in ascending order

12, 15, 15, 18, 20, 29, 33, 42

The middle is between 18 and 20

median = \frac{18+20}{2} = \frac{38}{2} = 19

Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey diddle diddle the medians in the middle you add then divide for the mean. the mode is the one that appears the most and the range is the difference in between.

Median: you have to organize the numbers from least to greatest then eliminate one by one.

12, 15, 15, 18, 20, 29, 33, 42

eliminate 12, and 42

15, 15, 18, 20, 29, 33

eliminate 15, and 33 ... so on

once you get to the median you end up with two numbers.

18, 20

because you can only have one median you find the number between, which in this case would be 19

Rita gets paid $16 per hour for the first 8 hours she works each day. She earns 1 1 2 times her hourly pay rate for time she wor
omeli [17]
<h3>The total money earned by Rita on Monday   = $158</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate by which  Rita is paid first 8 hours  = $16

The next per hour rate after 8 hours = 1\frac{1}{2}    = 1.5 times the usual rate.

Now, 1.5 times $16 = 1.5 x 1 6 =  $24

So, for each hour worked after 8th hour, Rita is paid $24 per hour.

Now, the intervals she has worked are:

(a) from 8:15  to 12: 45 pm

So, the number of hours worked  =  45 minutes + 45 minutes  + 3 hours  

= 4 hours 30 minutes  .... (1)   (as 60 minutes = 1 hour)

(b) break of 45 minutes after 12: 45  = 12: 45 + 45 minutes  

= 12 hour 90 minutes  = 1 :  30 P M

So, she started working at 1: 30 and worked till 6: 15

So, the number of hours worked  =  30 minutes + 15 minutes  +4 hours  

= 4 hours 45 minutes  .... (2)  

So, by adding (1) and (2) the total hours worked by Rita  

= 4 hours 30 minutes + 4 hours 45 minutes    

= 8 hours  75 minutes  = 9 hours 15 minutes

9 hours  15 minutes   = ( 8 +  1 .25 )     ( 15 minutes = 0.25 of an hour)

So, the payment is ( 8 x (16) +  1.25 (24) )  

= 128 +  30  = 158

Hence, the total money earned by Rita  = $158
