Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development​ (HUD) uses the median to report the average price of a home in the United States.

We know that mean, median and mode are measures of central tendency.

Mean is the average of all the prices while median is the middle entry when arranged in ascending order.

Mean has the disadvantage of showing undue figure if extreme entries are there. i.e. outlier affect mean.

Suppose a price goes extremely high, then mean will fluctuate more than median.

So median using gives a reliable estimate since median gives the middle price and equally spread to other sides.

Which of the following would best represent a cosine function with an amplitude of 3, a period of pi/2 , and a midline at y = –4
Grace [21]
To transform the function f(x)= cos(x) to have the amplitude of 3, we need to multiply the constant 3 to the function f(x), so we have y=3f(x)

To transform the function f(x)=cos(x) to have the midline y=-4 we need to subtract f(x) by 4, so we have y=f(x)-4, 

To transform the function f(x)=cos(x) to have period of \frac{ \pi }{2}, we need to divide the original period 2 \pi by 4, so we have y=f(4x). Note that it is the 4x gives the effect of dividing the points on x-axes by 4 and the period is read on x-axes

Hence, the full transformation is given y=3f(4x)-4 which is the last option

what is consecutive whole numbers? I have to write an algebraic expression for the sum of three consecutive whole numbers... :(
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Consecutive whole numbers (or integers) are numbers that directly follow one another.

Eg: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are consecutive whole numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Three consecutive even integers can be represented by x, x+2, x+4. The sum is 3x+6, which is equal to 108.

or

let the three consecutive whole numbers is x, x+1,and x+2

x + x+1 + x+2 = 4+2(x+1)

3x+3=4+2x+2

3x-2x=6-3

x=3

the other two numbers are 3+1=4,and 3+2=5

so the three numbers are 3,4 and 5
