Paul has been put in charge of setting up an 8-ball league at his local pool hall. He has set up the league so that two players

play a specific number of games each night the league plays. He is trying to decide if player should play 1, 3, 5, or 7 games each league night. To help make the decision, he has decided to poll the players to see how many games they would prefer to play each night. Which measure of central tendency should Paul use when using the data from the poll to make his decision?
A.
Paul should use the mean of the poll results to guide his decision.
B.
Paul should use the median of the poll results to guide his decision.
C.
Paul should use the mode of the poll results to guide his decision.
D.
Paul should use either the mean or the median, as they will produce the same value.

to angie's ladder was 22 feet tall above the ground lying against the wall of her house.the base of the ladder was 5 feet tall.w
Talja [164]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so attached is a diagram of the triangle we are solving. Because buildings are almost always perpendicular (90 degrees) to the ground, it is a right triangle.

You can now use the pythagorean theorem with the sides to fill in the other side:


a^2+ b^2= c^2

5^2 + b^2= 22^2

25+b^2=484

b^2= 459

b=21.42


Okay, so for slope you need 2 points- think of the wall as your y axis, and the ground as your x axis. The ladder is the line.

Your first point is (-5,0) because the bottom of the ladder is touching the ground (no y movement) and the bottom of the ladder is 5 feet from the base of the wall and ground (origin).

The second point is going to be (0, 21.42) because that is the height of the wall where the ladder is touching (x is at origin). The 21.42 is positive, because you can't have negative height.

Okay so far? :)

(-5,0) and (0, 21.42)

(x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

slope= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

slope= (21.42-0)/ (0-(-5)) ---- becomes positive

slope= 4.284

(Note: slope could also be negative if you put the ladder on the other side of the wall- 5 would become positive... google "positive vs negative slopes" for more info)


Hopefully that answers your question!

disa [49]

Answer:

p value from chi square = 0.081

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that sociologists say the percentage of the classic music lovers is about 5%. From the survey, we know that only 83 out of 2000 people listen to the classic music. Let denote the proportion of the classic music lovers. The hypotheses are H0: p=0.05 vs Ha: p≠0.05

p value = 0.09

Instead of this if we do chi square

H0: Proportion of music lovers is 5% and non music lovers is 95%

Ha: Proportions are not as per the estimate

(Two tailed chi square test)

Observed       83           1917       2000

Expected        100          1900     2000

O-E                  -17              17          0

chi square

(O-E)^2/E        2.89         0.1521     3.0421

df =1

p value from chi square = 0.081

Though p value is not exactly the same, the conclusion in both tests are the same

amid [387]

Answer:

t = 13.2 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

An athlete ran the 100 meter sprint in 13.245 seconds. We need to round off the time to the nearest tenth.

Here, t = 13.245 s

In order to round off to the nearest tenth, thousandths place and hundredth place gets eliminated.

So, t = 13.2 s

So, time is 13.2 seconds.
