Answer:

a. Mean doesn't change.

b. Median doesn't change.

c. Mode can change.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the data set with 10 observations

{2,6,4,3,2,6,4,9,4,7}.

Arranging data set in ascending order

{2,2,3,4,4,4,6,6,7,9}

mean=2+2+3+4+4+4+6+6+7+9/10=4.7

median

n/2=10/2=5 is an integer so,

median= average of n/2 and n/2 +1

median= (5th value+6th value)/2

median=(4+4)/2=8/2=4

Mode

The most repeated value is 4. So, mode is 4 for assumed data.

Increasing highest value by 10 and decreasing lowest value by 10

{-8,2,3,4,4,4,6,6,7,19}

a.

mean=-8+2+3+4+4+4+6+6+7+19/10=4.7

Mean doesn't change

b.

median

n/2=10/2=5 is an integer so,

median= average of n/2 and n/2 +1

median= (5th value+6th value)/2

median=(4+4)/2=8/2=4

Median doesn't change

c.

Most occurring value is still 4. But mode can change if the value the highest value becomes most concurring value.

Answer:

a. mean= 4.7

Mean doesn't change

b.

median

n/2=10/2=5 is an integer so,

median= average of n/2 and n/2 +1

median= (5th value+6th value)/2

median=(4+4)/2=8/2=4

Median doesn't change

c.

Most occurring value is 4.

Y = 5-3x, Darw the graph of the function. Use the find the value of y when x=4, and when x = 5​
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The line passes through (4, -7) and (5, -10).

Step-by-step explanation:

When x = 4, y = 5 - 3(4), or 5 - 12, or -7.  Thus the point (4, -7) lies on the graph.  Similarly y = 5 - 3(5) = -10 when x  = 5.  Thus, the line also goes through (5, -10).  Plot these two points and draw a line through them.  Doing this will result in the desired graph.

Use what you have learned to solve the following polynomial equation by either completing the square or using the quadratic form
USPshnik [31]
<span>(x^2-4x-6) factors into:</span>
(x -5.1623)     (x+1.1623)
Therefore x = 5.1623 and      x = -1.1623

(4x^2-8x-2) <span>factors into:
(x -2.2247)  *  (x +2.2474)
</span>
Therefore x = 2.2247   and x=  -0.22474

The first four terms of a sequence are shown on the graph below. On a coordinate plane, points are at (1, negative 1), (2, 8), (
Masja [62]

Answer:

  • The next term of the sequence is represented by the point (5, –64)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Note:</u> <em>The first point should be (1, - 4)</em>

According to the points, the sequence is:

  • t₁ = - 4, t₂ = 8, t₃ = - 16, t₄ = 32

or

  • - 4, 8, - 16, 32, ...

We can observe it is a geometric sequence with common ratio of - 2, as:

  • r = 32/ - 16 = - 16/8 = 8/ - 4 = - 2

The following term is:

  • t₅ = t₄*r = 32*(- 2) = - 64

The coordinates of same term are:

  • (5, - 64)

As we see the correct answer choice is D.
