Answer:
Mean: around 10,67 minutes
Median: 12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:
Mean:
Add all numbers then divide by the number of numbers
So: 16 + 3 + 15 + 6 + 15 + 9 = 64
64 ÷ 6 = 10.66666
Median:
List your numbers to smallest to largest and chose the number in the middle
So: 3, 6, 9, 15, 15, 16
The middle: 9 and 15
9 + 15 = 24
24 ÷ 2 = 12

Suppose a baseball team has 14 players on the roster who are not members of the pitching staff. Of those 14 players, assume that
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer: Our required probability would be 0.70.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of players = 14

Number of players have recently taken a performance enhancing drug = 3

Number of players have not recently taken a performance enhancing drug = 14-3=11

Number of members chosen randomly = 5

We need to find the probability that at least one of the tested players is found to have taken a performance enhancing drug.

P(Atleast 1) = 1 - P(none is found to have taken a performance enhancing drug)

So, P(X≥1)=1-P(X=0)

P(X\geq 1)=1-^5C_0(\dfrac{11}{14})^5\\\\P(X\geq 1)=1-(0.786)^5\\\\P(X\geq 1)=0.70

Hence, our required probability would be 0.70.

Two-third a number plus 4 is 7
Harman [31]

Answer:

2/3x+4=7

x=4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3x+4=7

-4 -4

2/3x=3 (multiply by 3/2)

multiply both side by the reciprocal

x=4.5

The graph below shows the water level of a tank that is emptying over time.
Allisa [31]
From inspecting the graph, you can identify the y-intercept and the slope of the line shown.

The y-intercept is 200 gallons.
The slope is 

             75-200
    m = ------------- = -12.5 gallons/minute
               10 -  0

Thus, y = 200 gallons - [12.5 gallons/minute ]t

To answer the 2nd question, let t = 12 minutes and calculate y(12).

To determine how long it wld take to empty the tank, set the above formula equal to zero and solve the resulting equation for t.

Given the relationship x2 + 3y2 =12, with y > 0 and dx, dt = 2 units/min., find the value of dy, dt at the instant y = 1 unit
matrenka [14]
\bf x^2+3y^2=12\implies \stackrel{chain~rule}{2x\cfrac{dx}{dt}}+3 \stackrel{chain~rule}{\left(2y\cfrac{dy}{dt}\right)}=0
\\\\\\
2x\cfrac{dx}{dt}+6y\cfrac{dy}{dt}=0
\implies 
6y\cfrac{dy}{dt}=-2x\cfrac{dx}{dt}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dt}=\cfrac{-2x\frac{dx}{dt}}{
6y\frac{dy}{dt}}
\\\\\\
\boxed{\cfrac{dy}{dt}=-\cfrac{x\frac{dx}{dt}}{3y}}\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf \textit{now, when y = 1, what is \underline{x}?}\qquad x^2+3y^2=12\implies x^2+3(1)^2=12
\\\\\\
x^2=9\implies x=\sqrt{9}\implies x=3\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\begin{cases}
y=1\\
x=3\\
\frac{dx}{dt}=2
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dt}=-\cfrac{3\cdot 2}{3\cdot 1}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dt}=-2

The price of a stock had a change of –3 dollars. explain how you would use a number line to find the absolute value of –3.
Naya [18.7K]
Draw out a horizontal line. Place 0 at the center. Then place evenly spaced tick marks on either side of 0. Label the right side of tick marks as 1, 2, 3, ... moving from 0 and going to the right

Label the left side of tick marks -1, -2, -3, ... starting at 0 and moving left

The location -3 on the number line is exactly 3 units away from 0. We start at 0 and move to -3 by moving 3 spots to the left; or we start at -3 and move 3 units to the right to get to 0.

Therefore, the absolute value of -3 is 3
Absolute value on a number line is the distance a number is from 0
The distance is never negative
