Answer: Option D. 13

Solution:

The data is:

16, 6, 8, 12, 14, 14

1) Sort the data from the least to the greatest:

6, 8, 12, 14, 14, 16

2) Find the median (middle value)

6, 8, 12, 14, 14, 16

1 2 3 4 5 6

We have to middle values, the third and fourth values (12 and 14), then the median is the average of these two values:

Median=(12+14)/2

Median=(26)/2

Median=13

Answer:

The correct answer option is D. 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data set for the number of laps Maria swam daily for 6 days:

16, 6, 8, 12, 14, 14

To find the median, we first need to sort the data in an ascending order:

6, 8, 12, 14, 14, 16

Now since the number of elements is an even number i.e. 6, we will take the two middle values and take their mean to find the median.

Median = $\frac{12+14}{2}$

Median = $\frac{26}{2}$ $= 13$

Therefore, 13 is the median for the given data set.

A reporter announces that there is an 80% chance of a thunderstorm tomorrow, and if the thunderstorm materializes, there is a 14

Vinil7 [7]

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

We will only get a tornado if there is already a thunderstorm materializing

0.80 * 0.14 = 0.112

Probability of a tornado = 11.2%

There is a 100 - 14 = 86% chance of a tornado not being produced.

0.80 * 0.86 = 0.688

Probability of a storm and no tornado = 68.8%
