What is the means-to-MAD ratio of the two data sets, expressed as a decimal to the nearest tenth?

1 answer:

3 0

To find the mean of a set, add up all of the data points and divide by the number of data points.
For the first set:
(14+18+21+15+17) ÷ 5 = 85 ÷ 5 = 17
For the second set:
(15+17+22+20+16) ÷ 5 = 90 ÷ 5 = 18

To find the MAD (mean absolute deviation) of a set, find the mean of the distances of each data point from the mean.
For the first set:
(3+1+4+2+0) ÷ 5 = 10 ÷ 5 = 2
For the second set:
(3+1+4+2+2) ÷ 5 = 12 ÷ 5 = 2.4

To find the means-to-MAD ratio of a set, divide its mean by its MAD.
For the first set:
17 ÷ 2 = 8.5
For the second set:
18 ÷ 2.4 = 7.5

Find the number of the different ways, for 3 students to sit on 7 seats in one row.

qwelly [4]

Answer:

210

Step-by-step explanation:

Here comes the problem from Combination.

We are being asked to find the number of ways out in which 3 students may sit on 7 seats in a row. Please see that in this case the even can not be repeated.

Let us start with the student one. For him all the 7 seats are available to sit. Hence number of ways for him to sit = 7

Let us see the student second. For him there are only 6 seats available to sit as one seat has already been occupied. Hence number of ways for him to sit = 6

Let us see the student third. For him there are only 5 seats available to sit as two seat has already been occupied. Hence number of ways for him to sit = 5

Hence the total number of ways for three students to be seated will be

7 x 6 x 5

On a map, 9 cm represents 15 miles. If the distance between two cities on the map is 15 cm, how many miles separate the cities?

torisob [31]

Answer:

15 cm on the map is equal to 25 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

On a map, 9 cm represents 15 miles.

The distance between two cities is 15 cm. We need to find the distance in miles.

9 cm = 15 miles

$1\ cm=\dfrac{15}{9}\ \miles$

So, 15 cm is equal to,

$15\ cm=\dfrac{15}{9}\times 15\ miles\\\\=25\ miles$

So, 15 cm on the map is equal to 25 miles.

I don’t even know what I’m doing

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

(8, -22)

Step-by-step explanation:

The tables each contain four (x,y) points of a straight line. You can see that for every increase of x by 2, y decreases by 8 in the first one (observe 26, 18, 10 2), and decreases by 6 in the second.

If you continue the table with x=4, 6 and 8, you get y=-22 in both cases for x=8. That is the intersection, so the solution is (8,-22).

Added a graph. The equations are y=10-4x and y=2-3x respectively. Hope you understand a bit of this (brief) explanation.
