The best measure of center tendency for this set of data would be the median. It is the best measurement because the data set has an outlier. The outlier is the 30. So to find the median we first order the data set and then find out if the set is an even or odd set. This set is even so we just chose the middle number. If the set was even, we would add the two center number and divide them by 2.

3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 30

The center tendency = 4

Answer:  4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data set : 5, 3, 5, 30, 4, 5, 4, 3, 4, 5

It can be seen that it contains an outlier (30), then the  best measure of center for this data set is median value. [∵ Mean gets affected by outlier extremely.]

First arrange data in an order :  3, 3 ,4 ,4 ,<u>4 ,5</u> ,5 ,5 ,5 ,30

Since , the number of data values =10 (Even)

Then, Median = Mean of the middle two values

i.e. Median = \dfrac{4+5}{2}=4.5

Hence, the best measure of center for this data set is 4.5 .

(a) Draw in radii OA, OB, OC and OD. Then, explain why OAB must
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

In the given circle, segments OA, OB, OC and OD are radius of the circle.

In other words, all those segments are congruent.

From that we can deduct that triangles OAB and OCD are isosceles triangles, because all segments are equal. That makes those triangles congruent, because they have the same sides.

From the congruence we can deduct that all corresponding internal angles inside those triangles are actually congruent, that's why angle OAB and ODC must be congruent.

Also, angles DOC and BOA are also congruent, which means their subtended arcs are also congruent, because they have the same radius, so mAB = mCD.

Find the derivative of f(x) = -9/x at x = 6
Svet_ta [14]
F(x)=-9/x which is equal to:

f(x)=-9x^(-1)  So the power rule for differentiation is used...

Power rule:  f(x)=x^e, df/dx=ex^(e-1) so:

df/dx=-9(-1)x^(-1-1)

df/dx=9x^(-2)  or if you prefer...

df/dx=9/x^2

df/dx(6)=9/36=1/4

An amateur soccer ball is priced at
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer: $26

Step-by-step explanation:

   If $19.50 is 3/4, we need to find 4/4.

3/4 -> 0.75

4/4 -> 1

    We will set up a proportion and solve.

\frac{19.5}{0.75} =\frac{x}{1}

19.5 = 0.75x

26 = x

         The professional ball is $26.
