What is the median of the data?

1 answer:

8 0

20, 19, 13, 23, 16, 15, 17, 17, 15, 15, 22, 19

To find the Median, place the numbers in value order and find the middle.

13, 15, 15, 15, 16, 17, 17, 19, 19, 20, 22, 23

There are 12 numbers and so we don't have just one middle number, we have a pair of middle numbers:

13, 15, 15, 15, 16, (17, 17), 19, 19, 20, 22, 23

To find the value halfway between them, add them together and divide by 2:

17 + 17 = 34
34 ÷ 2 = 17

So the median is A) 17.

If f(x) = x/2=-3 and g(x)=3x^2+x-6,find (f+g)(x)

Wewaii [24]

(f+g)(x) is 3x^2 + 3x/2 - 9

(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)=x/2-3+3x^2+x-6= 3x^2 + 3x/2- 9

The environment club is selling indoor herbs gardens for Earth Day. Each member is encouraged to sell at least 10 gardens. You s

Ad libitum [116K]

The inequality is looking for a value of "at least 10" gardens. This means something "greater than or equal to" 10 (>=10). After selling 3 on Monday plus 4 on Tuesday, this leaves "x" to be sold to reach the goal. By setting this on the same side as the 7, we can create the inequality to find out how many more are needed, at minimum, to reach our stated goal: 7 + x >= 10, which, when subtracting the 7 out from both sides of the inequality, leaves x >= 3 gardens.

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 5x - y = -7.

BARSIC [14]

keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, let's check for the slope of the equation above

$5x-y=-7\implies 5x-y+7=0 \\\\\\ \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{5} x+7=y\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}$

so a line perpendicular to that one above will have a slope of

$\stackrel{~\hspace{5em}\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}~\hspace{5em}} {\stackrel{slope}{5\implies \cfrac{5}{1}} ~\hfill \stackrel{reciprocal}{\cfrac{1}{5}} ~\hfill \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{-\cfrac{1}{5}}}$
