Answer: 8 oz..

1 pound= 16oz if 8oz=1.59 so add it up 4 times 8+8+8+8= 32 which = 2 pounds total 8=1.59 8+8= 1.59x2=3.18 8+8+8=1.59x3=4.77 8+8+8+8/ 1.59x4= 6.36 so all of them eights will = up to 2 pounds and 8 is obviously less

Construct a sample (with at least two different values in the set) of 4 measurements whose mean, median, and mode are equal. If

KiRa [710]

Answer:

The first set 4 , 6 , 6 , 8

The second set 2 , 6 , 6 , 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is the average of the values in a set. This can be found by summing all the numbers and dividing by the total number. The median is the middle number when the values are listed in order of increasing size. The mode is the number(s) that appear the most often in the set.

The first set 4 , 6 , 6 , 8

mean = (4 + 6 + 6 + 8 )/4 = 6

median = (6+6)/2 = 6

Mode = 6

The second set 2 , 6 , 6 , 10

mean = (2 + 6 + 6 + 10)/4 = 6

median = (6+6)/2 = 6

Mode = 6

There are 14 pieces of fruit in a basket, including 7 bananas.

solniwko [45]

If there are 7 bananas out of 14 pieces of fruit the probability of selecting a banana is 7/14. 7/14 can be reduced to 1/2. 7 divided by 7 is 1, and 14 divided by 7 is 2 making the answer 1/2!
