$a=b+4\\
c=2b\\
a+b+c=28\\\\
b+4+b+2b=28\\
4b=24\\
b=6\\\\
a=6+4\\
a=10\\\\
c=2\cdot6\\
c=12\\\\
\boxed{a=10,b=6,c=12}
$

Each of 16 students measured the circumference of a tennis ball by four different methods, which were:Method A: Estimate the cir

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

a) $\bar X_A =22.744$

$\bar X_B =20.7$

$\bar X_C =21.013$

$\bar X_D =18.306$

b) $Median_A =\frac{23+24}{2}=23.5$

$Median_B =\frac{20.4+20.4}{2}=20.4$

$Median_C =\frac{21+21}{2}=21$

$Median_D =\frac{20.7+20.7}{2}=20.7$

c) $\bar X_A =23.25$

$\bar X_B =20.7$

$\bar X_C =21.04$

$\bar X_D =20.69$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

Assuming the following data:

Method A: 18.0, 18.0, 18.0, 20.0, 22.0, 22.0, 22.5, 23.0, 24.0,24.0,25.0,25.0, 25.0,25.0,26.0,26.4

Method B: 18.8, 18.9, 18.9, 19.6, 20.1, 20.4, 20.4, 20.4, 20.4,20.5, 21.2. 22.0,22.0, 22.0,22.0,23.6

Method C: 20.2, 20.5, 20.5, 20.7, 20.8, 20.9, 21.0, 21.0,21.0,21.0, 21.0, 21.5,21.5,21.5,21.5,21.6

Method D: 20.0, 20.0, 20.0,-20.0, 20.2, 20.5, 20.5, 20.7, 20.7,20.7, 21.0, 21.1, 21.5, 21.6, 22.1,22.3.

Part a

The sample mean is defined as:

$\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

If we apply this formula for the four methods we got:

$\bar X_A =22.744$

$\bar X_B =20.7$

$\bar X_C =21.013$

$\bar X_D =18.306$

Part b

Since the total number of points for each method is 16 and this is an even number we need to calculate the median as the average between the 8th and the 9th position of the data ordered from the smallest to the largest. If we do this we have that:

$Median_A =\frac{23+24}{2}=23.5$

$Median_B =\frac{20.4+20.4}{2}=20.4$

$Median_C =\frac{21+21}{2}=21$

$Median_D =\frac{20.7+20.7}{2}=20.7$

Part c

The trimmed mean by 20% means that we need to calculate removing the 20% from each of the tails, the 20% of 16 is 3.2, so we need to remove 3 observations from both ends of the data like this:

Method A: 20.0, 22.0, 22.0, 22.5, 23.0, 24.0,24.0,25.0,25.0, 25.0

Method B: 19.6, 20.1, 20.4, 20.4, 20.4, 20.4,20.5, 21.2. 22.0,22.0

Method C: 20.7, 20.8, 20.9, 21.0, 21.0,21.0,21.0, 21.0, 21.5,21.5

Method D: 20.0 20.2, 20.5, 20.5, 20.7, 20.7,20.7, 21.0, 21.1, 21.5.

If we calculate the mean for each method we got:

$\bar X_A =23.25$

$\bar X_B =20.7$

$\bar X_C =21.04$

$\bar X_D =20.69$

Answer:

area of the daises part of the garden = 1/3 x 30 1/2

10 1/6 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

area of the daises part of the garden = area of garden x 1/3

= 1/3 x 30 1/2

Convert the mixed fraction to an improper fraction

to convert to improper fraction, take the following steps :

1. Multiply the whole number by the denominator

2. Add the numerator to the answer gotten in the previous step

3. divide the number gotten in the previous step by the denominator

= 1/3 x 61/2 = 61/6

convert to mixed fraction

10 1/6
