The median rainfall during a spring storm in the lowlands is about 4 mm less than a spring storm in the highlands. The mean rain

fall for the lowlands is about 3 mm less than for the highlands. Why is there a difference in the central measures for each data set?

The mean and the median are different  because the data for the highlands has more variation than the data for the lowlands. The mean is affected by the outliers in the lowlands data.

Median is just the value that is neither the highest nor the lowest compared with the other values in the set


Mean is just the average of the numbers which is found out by adding up all the numbers then dividing the sum by the number of values in the set

Find the <br> x-intercept and <br> y-intercept of the line.
vova2212 [387]
<h3><u>The x intercept is at (-7, 0).</u></h3><h3><u>The y intercept is at (0, 1).</u></h3>

To find both the x and the y intercept, we need to solve one at a time.

For the x intercept, we need to make the value of y equal to 0, and solve for x.

-x + 7y = 7

-x + 7(0) = 7

-x = 7

Multiply both sides by -1.

x = -7

The x intercept is -7.


Now for the y intercept.

-(0) + 7y = 7

7y = 7

Divide both sides by 1.

y = 1

The y intercept is at 0, 1.

A wheel has 10 equally sized slices numbered from 1 to 10.
Ksenya-84 [330]

The random probability of event X, wheel stopping on a white slice is 0.9 while the probability of not X, wheel stopping on Grey slice is 0.1

  • Total numbers on wheel = total possible outcomes = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}

  • Grey colored portion = {3}

  • White colored portion = {1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}

  • X = Event that wheel stops on a white slice

  • P(X) = number of white slices ÷ total number of slices

  • P(X) = 9 / 10 = 0.9

  • P(not X) = 1 - P(X)

  • P(not X) = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1

Therefore, the probability that wheel stops on a white slice is 0.9 while, the probability that wheel does not stop on a white slice is 0.1

The points with coordinates (x, -1), (2,2), and (4,3) lie on the same line. What is the value of x?
borishaifa [10]

Find the slope of the line passing throught the points (2, 2) and (4, 3).

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Substitute:

m=\dfrac{3-2}{4-2}=\dfrac{1}{2}

If the point (x, -1) lie on the same line, then the slope of line passing through the points (2, 2) and (x, -1) the same:

Substitute:

m=\dfrac{-1-2}{x-2}=\dfrac{-3}{x-2}

We have the equation:

\dfrac{-3}{x-2}=\dfrac{1}{2}        <em>cross multiply</em>

(1)(x-2)=(-3)(2)

x-2=-6           <em>add 2 to both sides</em>

x=-4

<h3>Answer: x = -4.</h3>
