Answer:

The median, because the data distribution is skewed to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

Min= 10.5

Q1 = 11.5

Median = 12.5

Q3= 13.5

Maximum = 15

The data is skewed towards the right because more values towards the right side as compared to the left side.

For data to be symmetrical, it has same shape on both sides of the median, which in our case is not possible.

So, for skewed data we always prefer median because it is less affected by the outliers and if mean is chosen, the value of mean is biased towards the side that has larger values while median does not get affected by it. So, we choose median.

our correct option will be:

The median, because the data distribution is skewed to the right

Viefleur [7K]
When a skateboarder starts from rest and moves down a hill with constant acceleration in a straight line for 6 seconds in a second trial he starts from rest and moves along the same straight line with the same acceleration for only 2 seconds. His displacement from his starting point compared with the first trial is one-ninth as large. This will make the answer choice C.

HELP ME ON THESE THREE QUESTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
natima [27]
Thats four questions, but okay :)   1.) 1 16/32 is just an hour and a half, and 1 2/8 is a hour and 15 minutes. that adds up to 2 hours and 3/4 or 2 hours and 45 minutes. 6-2 3/4 =3 1/4 hours, or 3 hours 15 minutes.     2.) convert the 1/3 and 2/5 into 10/30 and 12/30 so they have the same denominator, add them. that equals 22/30. now convert the 9/10 into 27/30 for easy subtraction. 27/30 minus 22/30 is 5/30, simplify that and it is 1/6. so betty needs a 1/6 of a gallon more.      3.) 32 6/12 is just 32 and 1/2. and thats 1/5 of his stuff. so take 32.5 and multiply it by 5, which equals 162.5 minutes. that is 2 hours 42 minutes, and 30 seconds.      4.) take 6 3/8 and multipy that by three for one week. that is 19.125. now multipy that by three since there are three weeks. that equals 57.375 which as a fraction is 57 3/8. so he would run 57 and 3/8 miles in three weeks of training. sorry about my spelling, im ust trying to type fast so you can get this fast.  :)
