Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first generate the frequency table from the information given:

Hurricane number(X)       Frequency(f)                f(X)

6                                            9                                   54

8                                            13                                  104

12                                           16                                  192

14                                            12                                168

Total                                     ∑(f) = 50                          ∑f(x) =518

In order to determine the last frequency (the remaining years), we will add the other frequencies and subtract the answer from 50, which is the total frequency (50 years). This is done as follows:

Let the last frequency be f

9 + 3 + 16 + f = 50

38 + f = 50

f = 50 - 38 = 12

Now, calculating mean:

\bar {X} = \frac{\sum f(x)}{\sum(f)} \\\\\bar {X} = \frac{518}{50} \\\\\bar {X} = 10.36

Therefore mean number of hurricanes = 10.4 (to one decimal place)

In the diagram, segments AD and AB are tangent to circle C. Solve for x.
Irina-Kira [14]
The answer is A !!!!!!!!

the two segments AD and AB are equal therefore if you make the two equal to each other you will get the answer: 

<span>x^​2+2=11 then you subtract two to put x squared on the side by itself
</span>then you have <span>x^​2=9
then all you have to do is take the square root of 9 and </span><span>x^​2 and you get x=3 
thefore the answer is A</span>

A newspaper’s cover page is 3/8 text, and photographs fill the rest. If 2/5 of the text is an article about endangered species,
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

\frac{3}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cover page

We are given that a newspaper 's cover page is \frac{3}{8} text and photograph fill the rest.

We have to find that how much part of cover's page is the article about endangered species

Text =\frac{3}{8}x

Remaining part =x-\frac{3}{8} x

Remaining part =\frac{8x-3x}{8}=\frac{5}{8} x

Therefore, a newspaper;s cover page fill with  Photograph =\frac{5}{8}

If the article about endangered species=\frac{2}{5} of text

Therefore, the article about endangered species=\frac{2}{5}\times\frac{3x}{8}=\frac{3}{20}x

Hence,  the article about endangered species is \frac{3}{20}of the cover page.
