Jason is the captain of his basketball team the list below shows how many points Jason scored in each of the first 10 games 18,2

3,14,26,16,10,12,24,14,13 Part A: find the range, mean, median,and mode of Jason's scores. Part B: use your results from part a find the variance and standard deviation of Jason's scores. Part C: are your results from part b for sample or a population Part D: use your results from parts A - C to describe the shape of the distribution of Jason's scores

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).

I'm confused. Can someone help?
VARVARA [1.3K]

a.

The polynomial w^2+18w+84 cannot be factored

The perfect square trinomial is w^2+18w + 81

----------

The reason the original can't be factored is that solving w^2+18w+84=0 leads to no real solutions. Use the quadratic formula to see this. The graph of y = x^2+18x+84 shows there are no x intercepts. A solution and an x intercept are basically the same. The x intercept visually represents the solution.

w^2+18w+81 factors to (w+9)^2 which is the same as (w+9)(w+9). We can note that w^2+18w+81 is in the form a^2+2ab+b^2 with a = w and b = 9

================================================

b.

The polynomial y^2-10y+23 cannot be factored

The perfect square trinomial is y^2-10y + 25

---------

Using the quadratic formula, y^2-10y+23 = 0 has no rational solutions. The two irrational solutions mean that we can't factor over the rationals. Put another way, there are no two whole numbers such that they multiply to 23 and add to -10 at the same time.

If we want to complete the square for y^2-10y, we take half of the -10 to get -5, then square this to get 25. Therefore, y^2-10y+25 is a perfect square and it factors to (y-5)^2 or (y-5)(y-5)

The area of a rectangle is 120 cm^2. The width is 30 cm. Find the perimeter. Please explain!
My name is Ann [436]
A=120cm^2
A=l*w
w=30

120=l*30     divide 30 from both sides to get rid of it
