What is the median of the following string of values? 55, 18, 58, 49, 8, 77, 62, 26, 7.11

Answer:

The answer is 49 if we are to assume you meant 7.11 and not 7,11.

If you meant 7,11 - the answer is 28.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are assuming you meant "7,11" and not "7.11", then we would start by removing the lowest and highest numbers from the list respectively, and repeating the process until you only have 1 or 2 numbers left.

Here are the pairs of numbers removed if we are assuming you meant 7.11;

7.11 / 77

8 / 62

18 / 58

26 / 55

We are left with 49, and that would be your median.

However, if we were to assume you meant 7,11, then we'd have to start over and repeat the process.

7 / 77

8 / 62

11 / 58

18 / 55

26 / 49 is our final answer; however we are not to assume this as we need a definite number. To resolve this, we would need to average the two numbers. To do this, we add them together and divide by how many numbers we added.

26 + 49 = 75.

75 / 2 = 28.5

Your median for this would be 28.5.

Hope this helps! Have a great rest of your day. :)

One person can do a certain job in 15 minutes and another person can do the same job in 30 minutes. How many minutes will it tak

Flauer [41]

Hello! Your answer is B, 10 minutes.

Say the x = minutes taken to do the job. You can set up an equation like this to solve this.

$\frac{1}{15} x + \frac{1}{30} x = 1$

This is representative of the situation. The fractions each represent how much each person does in a minute, and when they're multiplied by x, that's how much of the project they get done based off of the minutes they work together on the job. Add the two together, and you get how much of the project is finished in x amount of time. Set it equal to 1, as you are looking for 100% completion.

Once you have this equation, find a common denominator, add, and solve.

$\frac{1}{15} x + \frac{1}{30} x = 1$

$\frac{2}{30} x + \frac{1}{30} x = 1$
