Becasue the data may be skewed right or left (not symmetrical)

that is obvious when the median lean to left or right while the maximum and minimum records are still as they are.

Amy's grandmother gave her 3 identical chocolate chip cookies and 4 identical sugar cookies. In how many different orders can Am

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

chocolate chip cookie first: 15 ways

chocolate chip cookie last: 15 ways

chocolate chip cookie first and last: 5 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a total of 7 cookies.

Is she eats a chocolate cookie first, she will have 2 chocolate cookies and 4 sugar cookies (6 in total).

So, to find the number of different orders that Amy can eat the remaining cookies, we just need to calculate a combination of 6 choose 2 (that is, the number of ways we can put the 2 chocolate cookies among the 6 cookies) or a combination of 6 choose 4 (same thing, but for the sugar cookies):

C(6,2) = 6! / (2! * 4!) = 6 * 5 / 2 = 15 ways

Is she eats a chocolate cookie last, she will have 2 chocolate cookies and 4 sugar cookies (6 in total), so the problem is solved again with a combination of 6 choose 2:

C(6,2) = 15 ways

Is she eats a chocolate cookie first and last, she will have just 1 chocolate cookie left and 4 sugar cookies (5 in total), so the problem is solved with a combination of 5 choose 1 or a combination of 5 choose 4:

C(5,1) = 5! / (1! * 4!) = 5 ways

Each day that a library book is kept past its due date, a $0.30 fee is charged at midnight. Which ordered pair is a viable solut

castortr0y [4]

$0.30x=y should be the answer because there is a 30cent fee for every day and x represents how many days it's kept therefore you would add 30 cents for every day it's kept so it's valid to say $0.30x=y becaue the 30 cents times the total of days it's kept = y (the toatl)

One line segment is 5 emmore than 4 times the

ollegr [7]

Let the length of the 1st line segment = x

then the length of the second line segment = 4x + 5

The difference in their lengths = 35

so 4x + 5 - x = 35 ... [longer - shorter = 35]

3x = 30

x = 10

so the shorter (1st) line segment is 10 cm long

and the longer (2nd) line segment is 4 * 10 + 5 = 45 cm long
