Answer: the observer should consider to eliminate or to retake the third measure.
Explanation:
The four measures taken are 124.53, 124.55, 142.51 and 124.52.
As it can be easily seen, the third measure is much different from the other three. This means that something went wrong during the observation: it can be either the measure taken wrong or that the number was written wrong (if you switch the 2 and the 4 you get a number similar to the other ones).
If the third measure is not considered, an estimate of the mean would place it around 124.5, while if the outlier (the detatched number) is considered an estimate of the mean would increase to about 129.
Therefore, in order to obtain a more reliable mean, the observer should consider to eliminate or to retake the third measure.
Let's say the number of days library book is late is X, and the total fee is Y.
Liability charges $0.30 dollars as a fee for being 1 day late,
For being 1 day late, fee charge is: 1* $0.30
So, for X days the charge would be: X*$0.30.
Total charge for being X days late is Y, Which means: Y= 0.30 * X.
Now We would have to check all the viable solutions in the answer to see if they satisfy the equation Y= 0.30 * X
Option one(-3, -0.9) and two (-2.5, -0.75) Would not be a viable solution because the value of number of days can not be negative and in option one and two, value of days -3 and -2.5 is negative.
Option three(4.5, 1.35) can not be correct because library charges fee for a full day so the number for days would be a whole number. Library would not charge for 4.5 days, they would either charge of 4 days or 5 days because 4.5 is not an whole number.
Option four(8, 2.40) is the correct answer because it satisfies our equation;
Y= 0.30 * X
2.40= 0.30 * 8
2.40 = 2.40.
Fourth option (8, 2.40) is the only viable solution to this question.
Answer:
Option 4
Step-by-step explanation:
It has a negative slope of -
(move down one and to the right 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Multiply the numerators from each fraction by each other (the numbers on top). The result is the numerator of the answer.
Step 2: Multiply the denominators of each fraction by each other (the numbers on the bottom). ...
Step 3: Simplify or reduce the answer.
