Hello!

Sometimes when there are outliers in a data set, for example 1, 20,25,26,30, one is the outlier and when you find the mean it will not represent the data in the most accurate way. This is when you use the median to represent the part of the data set that has the information that is close together.

I hope this helps!

A company plans to sell a new type of cleaner for $280 each. The estimated cost, y, of manufacturing the cleaners is a function
Minchanka [31]
Suppose x is sold, $280 each , and y is the total financial cost. The first equation in the system is then certainly y = 280x.

The vertex form  <span>y-k = a(x-h)^2 where (h,k) is the vertex, and y is the y-intercept.

So, plug the values in.
</span><span>11,000-24,000 = a(0-500)^2
-13,000=250,000a
a=-0.052

y-</span><span>24,000 = -0.052(x-500)^2
y= </span><span>-0.052(x-500)^2 + 24,000
This is the second equation in the system.

The answer is then A, which contain the system </span><span>of equations which can be used to determine must be sold for the company to make a profit.</span>
