First to find the median we need to put the numbers in order from least to greatest.

62, 64, 65, 66, 67, 69, 83

Now take a number from each side

64, 65, 66, 67, 69

Once again.

65, 66, 67

On last time

66

So the median is 66.

Now to find the mean we must add all the numbers up

64+67+83+65+66+62+69

which equals 476

Now divide 476 by the total number of heights which is 7

476/7=68

So the mean is 68

Answers: Mean; 68 Median; 66

Xanthia can read 100 pages per hour and Molly can read 50 pages per hour. If they each read the same book, and the book has 225
Talja [164]

Answer:

135 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

y -----> the number of pages to finish reading the book

x ----> the number of hours

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the unit rate or slope of the linear equation

b is the y-intercept or initial value

In this problem we have

<em>Xanthia</em>

m=100\ pages/hour

b=225\ pages

y=-100x+225 ----> the slope is negative because is a decreasing function

For y=0

substitute and solve for x

0=-100x+225

100x=225

x=2.25\ hours ---> Xanthia's time to finish reading the book

<em>Molly</em>

m=50\ pages/hour

b=225\ pages

y=-50x+225 ----> the slope is negative because is a decreasing function

For y=0

0=-50x+225

50x=225

x=4.5\ hours --- Molly's time to finish reading the book

To find out how many more minutes than Xanthia would it take for Molly to finish reading the book, subtract Xanthia's time from Molly's time

4.5\ h-2.25\ h=2.25\ h

Convert to minutes

Multiply by 60

2.25\ h=2.25(60)=135\ minutes
