Answer: Mean=4.11

Median=4.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Using a graphing calculator, enter the values into the first list.  Then run one-variable statistics on the list.

By hand, to find the mean, add together all of the values:

3.25+3.25+3.66+3.83+4.57+4.52+4.74+4.69+4.44 = 36.95

Divide by the total number of data points, 9:

36.95/9 = 4.11

To find the median, order the data from least to greatest:

3.25, 3.25, 3.66, 3.83, 4.44, 4.52, 4.57, 4.69, 4.74

The middle number is 4.44

Consider that 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters. Which three statements are true for converting 18 feet to centimeters?
serg [7]

Answer:

There are 548.64 cm in 18 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that, 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters.

We need to convert 18 feet to centimeters

Also, 1 foot = 12 inch

Firstly we will convert 18 feet to inch.

18 feet = 12 × 18 inch

= 216 inch

Now to convert 18 feet to centimeters, multiply 216 inch by 2.54 cm as follows :

216 inch = 2.54×216 centimeters

= 548.64 cm

Hence, there are 548.64 cm in 18 feet.

ratelena [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  x^2 + 6x = 5

   x^2 + 6x + 9 = 14

   (x+3)^2 = 14

   x = \sqrt{14} - 3

2. x^2 + 8x -4 = 0

   x^2 + 8x = 4

   x^2 + 8x + 16 = 20

   (x+4)^2 = 20

   x = \sqrt{20} - 4

The systolic blood pressure (BP) of adults in the USA is nearly normally distributed with a mean of 121 and standard deviation o
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

Around 0.73% of adults in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 121 and standard deviation of 16.

This means that \mu = 121, \sigma = 16

Around what percentage of adults in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure

The proportion is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 160. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{160 - 121}{16}

Z = 2.44

Z = 2.44 has a p-value of 0.9927.

1 - 0.9927 = 0.0073

0.0073*100% = 0.73%

Around 0.73% of adults in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure

You use a garden hose to fill a wading pool. If the water level rises 11 centimeters every 6 minutes and you record the data poi
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

y=22\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

Let

x -----> the number of minutes

y ----> the water level in centimeters

In this problem we have a proportional relationship between the variables x and y

Find the value of k

For x=6 min, y=11 cm

k=11/6 -----> the slope is equal to the constant of proportionality k

The linear equation is

y=(11/6)x

so

For (12,y)

we have

x=12 min

substitute in the equation and solve for y

y=(11/6)12

y=22\ cm
