Answer:

median = 17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the middle value of a data set arranged in ascending order. If there is not a middle value then the median is the average value of the numbers either side of the middle.

Data in ascending order is

8, 15, 17, 18, 19, 21

The median is between 17 and 18, hence

median = \frac{17+18}{2} = 17.5

Answer:

<h2>17.5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the value that separates the higher half from the bottom half of the data sample (middle value).

We have

15, 8, 19, 21, 18, 17

Write from the smallest to the largest number

8, 15, 17, 18, 19, 21

We have an even number of numbers. Therefore we calculate the arithmetic mean of the two middle numbers:

8, 15, 17, 18, 19, 21

(17 + 18) : 2 = 35 : 2 = 17.5

What is the sum of a rational and irrational number ?
statuscvo [17]
Hello I hope this helps.
The sum of a rational number and an irrational number is irrational." By definition, an irrational number in decimal form goes on forever without repeating (a non-repeating, non-terminating decimal). By definition, a rational number in decimal form either terminates or repeats.

im not sure on how to do this If one angle of a triangle is 30° more than twice another angle, and the third angle is equal to t
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: How do you find the 3rd angle of a triangle?

Image result for im not sure on how to do this If one angle of a triangle is 30° more than twice another angle, and the third angle is equal to the sum of the first two angles, find the measure of each angle.

The three angles of any triangle add up to 180 degrees. Since you know two angles (35 and 40), add them together, then subtract the total from 180 to determine the degree of the third angle.

Write the multiplicative inverse of <br>a) -13/19​
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

-  \frac{19}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

the \: multiplicative \: inverse \: of \:  \\  -  \frac{13}{19}  =  -  \frac{19}{13}

Product of a number and its multiplicative inverse should be equal to 1.

So,

\bigg ( -  \frac{13}{19} \bigg)  \bigg ( -  \frac{19}{13} \bigg)

= \frac{13}{19}\times  \frac{19}{13}

=1
