Since the value 675 occurs more than once, the mode is considered to be the best to represents the data.

Step-by-step explanation:

since the value 675 occurs more than once, the mode is considered to be the best to represents the data.

Arrange the given data in ascending order

630,675,675,680,690,755,765

here 675 appears twice , so Lionel has a choice of selecting a home from two apartment which has the same rent 675., so Mode is the best measure of central tendency to the select apartment.

What can you tell about the mean of each distribution

Llana [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

In the case of a discrete probability distribution of a random variable X, the mean is equal to the sum over every possible value weighted by the probability of that value; that is, it is computed by taking the product of each possible value x of X and its probability p(x), and then adding all these products together

A researcher collects data on the relationship between the amount of daily exercise an individual gets and the percent body fat

fredd [130]

Answer: approximately 24

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to plot a regression line.

So we fit a model using the regression of Y on X, that an equation that predict Y for a given X using:

(Y -mean(Y ))= a(X-meanX)...........1

Where the formular of a is given the attachment.

N= the of individuals = 5

Y = amount of fat

X = time of exercise

mean(X )= sum of all X /N

= 131/5 = 26.2

mean(Y) = sum of all Y/N

= 104/5 = 20.8

a = N(SXY) - (SX)(SY)/ NS(X²) -(SX)²......2

SXY = Sum of Product X and Y

SX= sum of all X

SY = Sum of all Y

S(X²)= sum of all X²

(SX) = square of sum of X

a = -0.478

Hence we substitute into 1

Y-20.8 = -0.478 (X-26.2)

Y -20.8 = -0.478X - 12.524

Y = -0.478X + 33.324 or

Y = 33.324 - 0.478X (model)

When X = 20

Y = 33.324 - 0.478 × 20

Y = 33.324 - 9.56

Y = 23. 764

Y =24(approximately)

Carefully meaning of formula used in attachment to the solution they are the same.

Which is true about the degree of the sum and difference of the polynomials 3x5y – 2x3y4 – 7xy3 and –8x5y + 2x3y4 + xy3?

Alekssandra [29.7K]

First we have to find the sum and the difference of those polynomials- The sum is: ( 3 x^5y - 2 x^3y^4 - 7 xy^3 ) + ( - 8 x^5y + 2 x^3y^4 + xy^3 ) = 3 x^5 - 2 x^3y^4 - 7xy^3 - 8 x^5y + 2 x^3y^4 + xy^3 = - 5 x^5y - 6 xy^3. And the difference: ( 3 x^5y - 2 x^3y^4 - 7 xy^3 ) - ( - 8 x^5y + 2 x^3y^4 + xy^3 ) = 3 x^5y - 2 x^3y^4 - 7 xy^3 + 8 xy^5 - 2 x^3y^4 - xy^3 = 11 xy^5 - 4 x^3y^4 - 8xy^3. The highest exponent in both polynomials is 5. Answer: The degree of the polynomials is 5.

Tobias sent a chain letter to his friends, asking them to forward the letter to more friends. The number of people who receive t

malfutka [58]

Answer:

$P(t)=37\times (4)^{(t/9.1)}$

Explanation:

The number of emails is multiplied by 4 every 9.1 weeks.

Thus, since Tobias initially sent the chain letter to 37 friends, the number of letters will grow as per this geometric series:

Start: 37 letters

In 9.1 weeks: 37 × 4

In 2 × 9.1 weeks: 37 × (4)²

In 3 × 9.1 weeks: 37 × (4)³

As you see, the exponent is the number of weeks divided by 9.1

Thus, if your variable is the number of weeks, t, then the exponent is t/9.1

And the exponential function, P(t) will be:

$P(t)=37\times (4)^{(t/9.1)}$

If there are 350 boys in a school with a total of 800 students, then what percent of the students are girls?

tester [92]

Answer:

56.25%

800 - 350 = 450

1% of 800 = 8 (800 divided by 100)

450 divided by 8 = 56.25
