Five whole numbers are written in order

Mathematics
1 answer:
jeka57 [31]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x=7

y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

-Given that the mean and median is the same.

-Let b=mean =median

#Given that the set is arranged in order and is even:

median=\frac{n+1}{2}\\\\Median=3^{rd} \ term\\\\=x

Hence:

b=median=mean\\\\b=x\\\\\therefore mean=median=x

-Applying the mean formula:

\bar x=\frac{1}{n}\sum{x_i}\\\\\therefore 5x=4+6+x+y+10\\\\4x=20+y\\\\x=5+0.25y

#Since the number are in order:

6

Hence, x=7 and y=8

In a study published on January 31, 2011 in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers randomly assigned 1
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

d.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective of this test is to know if aerobic exercise modifies hippocampus activity. A random sample of 120 elderly men and women was taken and divided into two groups.

Group 1: Walked around a track three times a week.

Group 2: Did a variety of less aerobic exercises, including yoga and resistance training with bands.

After a year their brains were scanned showing that group 1 had an increase of 2% in their hippocampus and group 2 showed a decrease of 1.4%

a. True, this type of observational study can be the prelude to a more formal statistical study.

b. True, the explanatory variable is "type of exercise", it's the variable that the investigator suspects influence the hippocampus volume.

c. True, the objective of this experiment is to test if there is any modification on hippocampus volume, that's why the volume of the hippocampus was measured, before and after a year of exercise.

d. False, this is an observational study, you cannot establish a causal relationship between the two variables. Just inform you that there seems to be an association. To be able to generalize the results to all elderly population you need a more formal statistical experiment to support your conclusions.

I hope it helps!

A portion of the Quadratic Formula proof is shown. Fill in the missing statement.
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

x+\frac{b}{2a} =\pm\sqrt{\frac{b^2-4ac}{4a^2}}

Simplify the right side of the equation

we know that

\pm\sqrt{\frac{b^2-4ac}{4a^2}}=\pm\frac{\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{\sqrt{4a^2}}=\pm\frac{\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

so

The expression is

x+\frac{b}{2a}=\pm\frac{\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

therefore

x plus b over 2 times a equals plus or minus the square root of b squared minus 4 times a times c, all over 2 times a

Function f is shown below <br> f(-3) <br> f(4)<br> find x when f(x) = 5<br> find x when f(x)= -3
hjlf

Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the graph,

  1. <u>f(-3)</u>
  • f(-3) = 0

   2. <u>f(4)</u>

  • f(4) = -3

   3. <u>x when f(x) = 5</u>

  • f(x) = 5
  • x = 0

   4. <u>x when f(x) = -3</u>

  • f(x) = -3
  • x = ±4
