What does the median represent in a set of numbers?

Mathematics

Alja [10]3 years ago

Answer:

The median is the middle number in a sorted, ascending or descending, list of numbers and can be more descriptive of that data set than the average. The median is sometimes used as opposed to the mean when there are outliers in the sequence that might skew the average of the values.

A metallurgist has one alloy containing 34% copper another containing 48% copper. How many pounds of each alloy must he use to m
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

<h2>36.14 pounds of 34% copper alloy and 9.86 pounds of 48% copper alloy</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

        First alloy contains 34% copper and the second alloy contains 48% alloy.

We wish to make 46 pounds of a third alloy containing 37% copper.

       Let the weight of first alloy used be x in pounds and the weight of second alloy used be y in pounds.

       Total weight = 46\text{ }pounds=x+y        -(i)

      Total weight of copper = 37\%\text{ of 46 pounds = }34\%\text{ of }x\text{ pounds + }48\%\text{ of }y\text{ pounds }

       \dfrac{37\times 46}{100}=\dfrac{34x}{100}+\dfrac{48y}{100}\\\\ 34x+48y=1702        -(ii)

       Subtracting 34 times first equation from second equation,

34x+48y-34x-34y=1702-34\times46\\14y=138\\y=9.857\text{ }pounds \\x=36.143\text{ }pounds

∴ 36.14 pounds of first alloy and 9.86 pounds of second alloy were used.
