Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Systolic. Calculate the mean

118+128+158+96+156+122+116+136+126+120+

=1276÷10 = 127.6.

To calculate the median arrange the values from the lowest to the highest.

96,116,118,120,122,126,128,136,156,158.

122+126+2=124.

Disastolic

80+76+74+52+90+88+58+64+72+82= 736÷10=73.6

To calculate the median arrange the values from the lowest to the highest.

52,58,64,72,74,76,80,82,88,90

Median= 74+76=150÷2=75.

Comparison

The Systolic and diastolic blood pressure measures different things, so comparing them is of no use.

It will be good if the relationship between the blood pressure can be investigated because the data are in pairs.

mash [69]
To answer this, you multiple 1000 by 7,234 because each box comes with 1000, so if there are 7234 boxes, then you multiple the stirrers by the # of boxes
