The median is a better representative of the central value of a data set when
the data set is highly skewed.

Note that
The median and average value only coincide when the distribution is perfectly normal.
Many outliers will also skew the distribution, and the median becomes a better representative.

The table shows the height of water in a pool as it is being filled. A table showing Height of Water in a Pool with two columns
icang [17]

Answer:

The height of the water increases 2 inches per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is always the ratio of

y coordinate change / x coordinate change

in our case, x is the time (minutes), and y is the water height (inches).

we see, the longer the pool get filled, the higher the water gets. logical, right ?

by checking the data points we see :

with every 2 minutes passing the water height increases by 4 inches.

so, the slope is +4/+2 = 2/1 = 2

and that ratio tells us now the increase of the water height with every fraction or multiple of the measured 2-minute interval.

every 2 minutes 4 inches more.

so, e.g. every 3×2 = 6 minutes we get 3×4 = 12 inches more.

and - every 1/2 × 2 = 1 minute more we get 1/2 × 4 = 2 inches more.

A sample of lake water contains 150grams of salt. If 30% of the water sample is salt, find the number of grams the entire sample
hjlf

Answer:

500 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the total number of grams of the sample is x. We know that 30% of x is salt and we also know this quantity is 150 grams. So, we can write this as:

30% * x = 150

Remember that % is simply "out of 100", so 30% = 30/100 = 0.30. Then:

0.30 * x = 150

Divide both sides by 0.30:

x = 500 grams

Hope this helps!
