Answer:

median rainfall for highland storms = 18mm

median rainfall  for lowland storms = 18mm

or

median rainfall  for lowland storms = 17mm if the list of numbers is

2  4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 26 28 30 32

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the middle number of a sequence of ordered numbers.

The formula for the median is:

median = (n + 1 )/ 2

where n = total number of values

Note: the number that you find with this formula is the position. SO you have to go to the sequence of numbers and find the number that lies in that position.

Highland storms:

4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 26 28 30 32

The numbers are already in ascending order so we can proceed.

n = 15

∴ median = (15+1)/2

                = 16/2

                = 8

The median is the umber in the 8th position

so, the median rainfall for highland storms is 18mm

Lowland storms:

4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 26 28 30 32

The numbers are already in ascending order so we can proceed.

n = 15

∴ median = (15+1)/2

                = 16/2

                = 8

The median is the number in the 8th position.

∴  median rainfall for lowland storms is = 18mm

<u>Unclear: if this is the list of numbers: </u>

2  4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 26 28 30 32

then the median would be:

n = 16

median = (16+1)/2  

             = 17/2

             = 8.5

This means the median lies between the numbers in the 8th and 9th position.

∴ The median is =  (16 + 18)/2

                           = 34/2

                           = 17

Answer:

161 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 115 cm is 5 boxes, we take 115 and divide it by 5. This will get us the cm of 1 box. 115/5=23

Now we take 23 and multiply it by 7 to get the final height. 23x7=161

An isosceles triangle △ABC with the base BC is inscribed in a circle. Find the measures of angles of the triangle, if measure of
____ [38]

Answer:

  • angle at A: 51°
  • base angles: 64.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the inscribed angle BAC is half the measure of the intercepted arc BC, so is 102°/2 = 51°.

The base angles  at B and C are the complement of half this value, or ...

  90° -(51°/2) = 64.5°

The angle measures in the triangle are ...

  ∠A = 51°

  ∠B = ∠C = 64.5°
