Answer:

mean=10.625=10.6

median=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean

The word mean, which is a homonym for multiple other words in the English language, is similarly ambiguous even in the area of mathematics. Depending on the context, whether mathematical or statistical, what is meant by the "mean" changes. In its simplest mathematical definition regarding data sets, the mean used is the arithmetic mean, also referred to as mathematical expectation, or average. In this form, the mean refers to an intermediate value between a discrete set of numbers, namely, the sum of all values in the data set, divided by the total number of values. The equation for calculating an arithmetic mean is virtually identical to that for calculating the statistical concepts of population and sample mean, with slight variations in the variables used

Median

The statistical concept of the median is a value that divides a data sample, population, or probability distribution into two halves. Finding the median essentially involves finding the value in a data sample that has a physical location between the rest of the numbers. Note that when calculating the median of a finite list of numbers, the order of the data samples is important. Conventionally, the values are listed in ascending order, but there is no real reason that listing the values in descending order would provide different results. In the case where the total number of values in a data sample is odd, the median is simply the number in the middle of the list of all values. When the data sample contains an even number of values, the median is the mean of the two middle values. While this can be confusing, simply remember that even though the median sometimes involves the computation of a mean, when this case arises, it will involve only the two middle values, while a mean involves all the values in the data sample. In the odd cases where there are only two data samples or there is an even number of samples where all the values are the same, the mean and median will be the same

Write the equation of the line that passes through (-4, 8) and is parallel to the line that passes through (2, 1) and (-2, -1).
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(2,1), (-2,-1)

slope(m) = (-1-1) / (-2 - 2) = -2/-4 = 1/2

parallel lines will have the same slope

y = mx + b

slope(m) = 1/2

(-4,8)...x = -4 and y = 8

now sub and find b, the y int

8 = 1/2(-4) + b

8 = -2 + b

8 + 2 = b

10 = b

so ur equation is : y = 1/2x + 10 <==

A relation is (also) a function if every input x is mapped to a unique output y.

In terms of graphical representation, this implies that a graph represents a function if there doesn't exist a vertical line that intersects the graph more than once. So:

  1. The first graph is exactly a vertical line, so it's not a function.
  2. The second graph represents the function y=x, so it's a function: you can see that every possible vertical line crosses the graph only once.
  3. The third graph is not a function, because you can draw vertical lines that cross the graph twice.
  4. Similarly, in the fourth graph you can draw vertical lines that cross the graph twice
  5. The fifth graph is a function, because every vertical line crosses the graph once
  6. The last graph is a function, although discontinuous, for the same reason.

suppose Q is the midpoint of PR. use the information to find the missing value. PQ equals 3x + 14 and QR equals 7X - 10; find X.
NARA [144]

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

A midpoint is the middle point of a line segment, therefore it is equal distances from both ends of the segment.

This means that PQ and QR have the same length. So all we have to do is set each value equal to each other, and then solve for X.

3x+14=7x-10\\3x+24=7x\\24-4x\\x=6
