The data shows the speed, in miles per hour, of motorists on a stretch of road.

1 answer:

Answer:

i. 18 miles per hour is an outlier

ii. the outlier decreases the mean speed

Step-by-step explanation:

An outlier in a given data is one of the values that is far greater or lesser compared to others. It affect the mean and standard deviation of a given data significantly.

From the given data, 18 is far too small compared to other values. This is certainly an outlier. This would affect the mean speed by decreasing the value.

An interquartile range is a measure of differences among data by dividing a set of given data into quartile. Increasing the value of the outlier would increase the interquartile range.

Connor rolled a die 6 times. A 2 occurred three times. Why isn't the theoretical probability 3/6 instead of 1/6?

Cerrena [4.2K]

2 occurred 3times

$\\ \sf\longmapsto S=6\times 3=18$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto |S|=18$

Now

$\\ \sf\longmapsto E=No\:of\:times\: 2\:occured$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto |E|=3$

we know

$\boxed{\sf P(E)=\dfrac{|E|}{|S|}}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto P(E)=\dfrac{3}{18}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto P(E)=\dfrac{1}{6}$

The following graph represents the distance a commercial airplane travels over time, at cruising speed and an altitude of 35,000

ANEK [815]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $k=\frac{y}{x}$ or $y=kx$

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

Let

x ----> the time in hours

y ----> the distance in miles

<em>Find the value of k</em>

For the point (4,2268)

$k=\frac{2,268}{4}=567\ mph$

The slope represent the speed of the airplane

so

The linear equation is

$y=567x$

Part 1 :

The point (0,0) represents the starting point of the aircraft, when the time and distance are equal to zero. The cruising starts when time t = 0.

Part 2 :

The point (4, 2268) represents the plane after 4 hours of cruise , and shows it has traveled a distance of 2268 miles after 4 hours
