A survey of a group of seventh graders and a group of teachers at a local middle school asked how many siblings they each have.

The dot plots below show the results.
Students
A dot plot titled Students. A number line going from 0 to 9 labeled number of siblings. There are 2 dots above 0, 4 above 1, 7 above 2, 5 above 3, 2 above 4, and 0 above 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.

Teachers
A dot plot titled Teachers. A number line going from 0 to 9 labeled Number of siblings. There is 1 dot above 0, 3 dots above 1, 2 above 2, 4 above 3, 5 above 4, 3 above 5, 1 above 6, 0 above 7, 1 above 8, and 0 above 9.

What is closest to the difference between the means of the two dot plots?
0.5
1.0

Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Attached to this answer is the diagram of the box plot described in the question, and the means from the plot are calculated thus;

Students;    no. of siblings

student 0     2

student 1      4

student 2     7

student 3     5

student 4     2

Total             20

Mean no. of siblings = (total number of siblings) ÷ (total number of students)

Note that number of students here are the once that had at least one sibling, others without siblings are not used in the calculation, hence 5 students (student-0 to student-4) make up total number of students, while the remaining 4 students (student-4 to student-9) are disregarded.

Therefore, mean = 20 ÷ 5 = 4 siblings.

What is the circumference of circle P?<br><br> Express your answer in terms of π.
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Circumference of a circle= 2\pi r

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of any circle is the total length of its boundary which can be calculated by the formula:

                Circumference of a circle= 2\pi r

               Where 'r' is the radius of the circle

For, the given circle the circumference can be find in terms of \pi  by putting some value of radius in the formula, which gives the circumference in terms of \pi.

Find the sum of the first 17 terms of the arithmetic sequence 10, 14, 18, 22, 26...
kari74 [83]
10, 14, 18 ....

notice, we get the next term by simply adding 4 to the current term, thus "4" is the "common difference, and we know that 10 is the first term.

\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of an arithmetic sequence}&#10;\\\\&#10;a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;n=n^{th}\ term\\&#10;a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\&#10;d=\textit{common difference}\\&#10;----------\\&#10;a_1=10\\&#10;d=4\\&#10;n=17&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;a_{17}=10+(17-1)(4)\implies a_{17}=10+(16)(4)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;a_{17}=10+64\implies a_{17}=74\\\\&#10;-------------------------------

\bf \textit{ sum of a finite arithmetic sequence}&#10;\\\\&#10;S_n=\cfrac{n(a_1+a_n)}{2}\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;n=n^{th}\ term\\&#10;a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\&#10;----------\\&#10;a_1=10\\&#10;a_{17}=74\\&#10;n=17&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;S_{17}=\cfrac{17(10+74)}{2}\implies S_{17}=\cfrac{17(84)}{2}\implies S_{17}=714
