Answer:
b. exam completion time is negatively skewed
Step-by-step explanation:
A data distribution is said to be negatively skewed when <em>median</em> value of the distribution is higher than the <em>average</em> value of the distribution.
In this example
- average mid-term completion time is 40 minutes
- median mid-term completion time is 55 minutes.
thus median > mean, so the mid-term completion time is negatively skewed. Negatively skewed distributions are also called left-skewed.
Answer:
LOL I NEED POINTS SORRY NOT SORRY
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 1 , y = 1 and z = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x+2y+3z=0 ------(1)
-2x-y+z=-3 --------(2)
2x+3y+3z=5 ---------(3)
<u>To find the values of x,y and z</u>
(3) - (2)⇒ 2y + 4z = 2
y + 2z = 1 --------(4)
(1) - (2)⇒ 3y +2z =3 ---(5)
(5) - (4)⇒ 2y = 2
y = 1
Substituting the value of y in (4) we get z =0
Substituting the value of y and z in (1) we get x = 1
Therefore x = 1 , y = 1 and z = 0
Simplifying
2x2 + 6x + 4 = 24
Reorder the terms:
4 + 6x + 2x2 = 24
Solving
4 + 6x + 2x2 = 24
Solving for variable 'x'.
Reorder the terms:
4 + -24 + 6x + 2x2 = 24 + -24
Combine like terms: 4 + -24 = -20
-20 + 6x + 2x2 = 24 + -24
Combine like terms: 24 + -24 = 0
-20 + 6x + 2x2 = 0
Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '2'.
2(-10 + 3x + x2) = 0
Factor a trinomial.
2((-5 + -1x)(2 + -1x)) = 0
Ignore the factor 2.
Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(-5 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
Simplifying
-5 + -1x = 0
Solving
-5 + -1x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '5' to each side of the equation.
-5 + 5 + -1x = 0 + 5
Combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0
0 + -1x = 0 + 5
-1x = 0 + 5
Combine like terms: 0 + 5 = 5
-1x = 5
Divide each side by '-1'.
x = -5
Simplifying
x = -5
