Mathematics

MAXImum [283]3 years ago

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

There are 7052 boys and adults at carnival.
Basile [38]

Answer:

There are 6,296 children at the carnival

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of each group of people can be expressed as;

Number of boys (b)+number of adults (a)=7,052

b+a=7,052....equation 1

Number of girls (g)=Number of adults (a)-756

g=a-756....equation 2

But Number of girls (g)=number of boys (b)

Replacing the value of b in equation 1 with that of g in equation 2;

(a-756)+a=7,052

a+a=7,052+756

2 a=7,808

a=7,808/2

a=3,904

Replace the value of a in equation 2 with 3,904

g=3,904-756

g=3,148

But since g=b

g=b=3,148

b=3,148

Total number of children=Total number of boys (b)+total number of girls (g)

Total number of children=b+g

where;

b=3,148

g=3,148

replacing;

Total number of children=(3,148+3,148)=6,296

There are 6,296 children at the carnival
