10. Which statement about the data is true? 114, 216, 246, 220, 111, 234, 121, 179

1 answer:

8 0

Right away, mode is not applicable because mode entails the repetition of the same number. No numbers are repeated here.

To find median, you must put the numbers in numerical order. You should get
111, 114, 121, 179, 216, 220, 234, 246

Next, find the middle. In this case, the middle is split between 179 and 216. To find the median, add 179 and 216 then divide by two. You should get 197.5.

To find the mean, add all the numbers then divide by the number of numbers present (in this case there are 8 numbers). You should get 180.125.

Because the median and mean are off, it is safe to say A is the correct choice.

A bee flies 20 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive. The bee stays at the flowerbed for fifteen minutes. Then i

A. The equation to find the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is: $\frac{x}{20}+\frac{x}{12}+900= 1200$ , where x is the distance.

B. The flowerbed is 2250 feet far from the hive.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Suppose, the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is $x$ feet.

The bee flies 20 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive and flies directly back to the hive at 12 feet per second.

As, $Time=\frac{Distance}{Speed}$

So, the time taken by the bee to reach the flowerbed $= \frac{x}{20}$ seconds and the time taken to fly back to the hive $=\frac{x}{12}$ seconds.

The bee stays at the flowerbed for 15 minutes or (15×60)seconds or 900 seconds and it is away from the hive for a total of 20 minutes or (20×60)seconds or 1200 seconds.

So, the equation will be.......

$\frac{x}{20}+\frac{x}{12}+900= 1200\\ \\ \frac{3x+5x}{60}= 300\\ \\ 8x= 60*300\\ \\ 8x=18000\\ \\ x=\frac{18000}{8}=2250$

Thus, the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is 2250 feet.

Mary bought a pair of jeans on sale for 25% off. The original price for jeans was $79. What was the sale price before tax? Expla

TEA [102]

<h3>Answer: $59.25</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

There are two approaches

Method 1

25% of 79 = 0.25*79 = 19.75

Mary saves $19.75 and the price before tax is 79 - 19.75 = 59.25

-----------------------------

Method 2

She saves 25% so she must pay the remaining 75%

75% of 79 = 0.75*79 = 59.25

This is a slight shortcut, and it's very useful when it comes to chaining multiple discounts together.

Can you help me with number 6? <br> Confused abit <br> Please

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

You can see the three diagram attached. Each link is labeled with the probability: you have probability 1/6 that a six is rolled, and 5/6 that it is not rolled.

To answer the questions, find the path that brings you to the desired outcome, and multiply all the labels you meet.

First question:

To get three sixes, you have to choose the left path at each roll. The probability is always 1/6, so the answer is

$\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{6^3}$

Second question:

To get no sixes, you have to choose the right path at each roll. The probability is always 5/6, so the answer is

$\frac{5}{6} \times \frac{5}{6} \times \frac{5}{6} = \frac{5^3}{6^3}$

Third question:

To get exactly one six, it can either be the first, second or third roll.

In all cases, you have to choose the left path once and the right path twice: left-right-right mean that you get the six in the first roll, right-left-right means that you get the six in the second roll, right-right-left means that you get the six in the third roll.

In every case, the left turn has probability 1/6, and the right turn has probability 5/6. The probability of each combination is thus

$\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{5}{6} \times \frac{5}{6} = \frac{5^2}{6^3}$

And since there are three of these combinations, The answer is

$3\frac{5^2}{6^3}$

Fourth question:

Since the question suggests to use what we already achieved, let's do it: having at least one six is the complementary event of having no sixes at all. If an event has probability p, its complementary has probability 1-p. So, since the probability of no sixes is known, the probability of at least one six is

$1 - \frac{5^3}{6^3}$
