At a back to school sale, backpacks are marked down 15%. If the original price was $34, what is the sale price?

1 answer:

3 0

There are two ways to do this problem the first: multiply the original price by the percentage marked down ($34x.15=5.10) then subtract 5.10 from 34 and that gives you $28.90. The second way: subtract 15% from 100% (85%) and multiply $34 by .85 which will give you $28.90. :) whichever is easiest :)

Simplify 38 over 49 what’s the anwswer

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: 38 over 49 can be written as 38/49. When divided, you will get 0.77551020408. It takes lots of regrouping, but it ends eventually.

If you are reducing it as a fraction, it is not possible because there is no other number to reduce it, so it will be in it's simplest form already.

4. Why studying central tendency alone is insufficient and calculating dispersion is always needed in both descriptive and infer

ira [324]

Answer:

Check below for the answer and explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Studying the central tendency alone is not sufficient because apart from calculating the value of the central point of a group of data ( which is what the measure of central tendency does), it is important to also understand the spread of these data about the average(mean) value.The measure of dispersion will help us to know the range of error that is recorded in both descriptive and inferential statistics and this will enable the statistician to assess the validity of the data generated from the experiment performed.

A small value of standard deviation indicates that each of the values in the dataset is close to the average (mean) value.
