What does it mean if a statistic is​ resistant? choose the correct answer below.

When we say a statistic is resistant, we mean the extreme values do not affect the statistic to a large extent or to an extent which makes a major difference. Mean and median are example of such statistics. By changing the extreme values we do not see a substantial difference in the value of mean and median for the data set.

Consider a sample: 1,2,3,4,4,5,6,7,8
The median for this data set is 4.
If we change the extreme values to get this sample:  -5,2,3,4,4,5,6,7,100
The median will still be the same i.e. 4. This is what is meant by a resistant statistic.

So option a is the correct ans.

Valentina's family is planning to have a party for her quinceanera. They are considering two different locations to rent for her
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

number of hours = 3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = number of hours

Casa Lucia = 200 + 500x

Silver Fox = 1,100 + 200x

To solve the equation, equate both cost of rent

Casa Lucia = Silver Fox

200 + 500x = 1,100 + 200x

200 - 1,100 = 200x - 500x

-900 = - 300x

x = -900 / -300

x = 3 hours

number of hours = 3 hours

The solution to the system of equations in this real-world context represents the number of hours both locations can be rented with the same cost.

It means both locations cost the same if rented for 3 hours each

Find a set of scalar parametric equations for the line formed by the two intersecting planes. 3x+3y+2z+2=0 2x−3y+2z−2=0
vivado [14]

The normal vectors to the two planes are (3, 3, 2) and (2, -3, 2). The cross product of these will be the direction vector of the line of intersection, (12, -2, -15).

Using x=0, we can find a point on this line by solving the simultaneous equations that remain:

... 3y +2z = -2

... -3y +2z = 2

Adding these, we get

... 4z = 0

... z = 0

so the point we're looking for is (x, y, z) = (0, -2/3, 0). This gives rise to the parametric equations ...

  • x = 12t
  • y = -2/3 -2t
  • z = -15t

By letting t=2/3, we can find a point on the line that has integer coefficients. That will be (x, y, z) = (8, -2, -10).

Then our parametric equations can be written as

  • x = 8 +12t
  • y = -2 -2t
  • z = -10 -15t
