A. The scores in order are: 10, 12, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 23, 24, 26. The range is 26 - 10 = 16. The mean is the sum divided by 10, which is 17. The median is between 14 & 16, which is 15. The mode is 14, since it is repeated twice.
B. The variance is calculated by subtracting each score from the mean, squaring, and adding all such squares. Then divide by the number of terms (10) to get 27.6 Take the square root to get the standard deviation, which is 5.25.
C. This is for a population, since these are all 10 games that Jason played. (If it were a sample, we would divide by 9 only)

D. The mean of 17 is higher than the median of 15 and the mode of 14. This implies a left-skewed distribution. However, the SD of 5.25 is quite high relative to the mean of 17, so the distribution is not that clearly defined yet (more data points would make it clearer).

Which number sentence is true?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

The answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

Because A is incorrect because the -8.9 is in absolute value which mean it will be an 8.9 which is greater than 5.6

C is Incorrect because - 5.6 is not greater than the absolute value of -8.9 which is 8.9, as you can see is greater than -5.6

D is incorrect because the absolute value of 5.6 is still 5.6 and the absolute value of - 8.9 is 8.9 which is greater that 5.6

1.3.33 Question Help A certain triangle has a perimeter of 3078 mi. The shortest side measures 71 mi less than the middle side,
maksim [4K]

Answer:

the shortest side is 855 miles long.

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b + c = 3078 miles

a = b - 71

c = b + 371

=>

(b-71) + b + (b+371) = 3078

3b + 300 = 3078

3b = 2778

b = 926 miles

a = 926 - 71 = 855 miles

c = 926 + 371 = 1297 miles
