Answer: The correct option is (b) n > 4.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that six times a number is greater than 20 more than that number.

We are to find the possible values of the number.

Let the given number be n.

Then, according to the given information, we have

$6\times n>n+20\\\\\Rightarrow 6n>n+20\\\\\Rightarrow 6n-n>20\\\\\Rightarrow 5n>20\\\\\Rightarrow n>\dfrac{20}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow n>4.$

Thus, the required possible values of the number are given by

n > 4.

Option (b) is CORRECT.

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

matrenka [14]

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.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp / hyp

sin 30 = x/8

8 sin 30 =x

8 (1/2) = x
