Would you use the median or mean to describe the center of each data set? Explain your reasoning. Heights of 50 basketball playe

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Median is used to describe the center of the data of heights of 50 basketball players.

Step-by-step explanation:

The median divides the data into two equal parts.

It can be used to describe the center of the data.

The mean gives the average where most data lies.

The advantages of median are

1)it is located even when the values are not capable of quantitative measurements.

2) It is not affected by extreme values > It can be computed even when a frequency distribution involves open end classes like those of income and prices.

3) In a highly skewed distribution median is appropriate average to use.

The disadvantages of the mean are

1) it is greatly affected by extreme values.

2) It sometimes gives fallacious conclusions.

3) In a highly skewed distribution mean is not an appropriate average to use.

4) It cannot be computed even when a frequency distribution involves open end classes like those of income and prices.

At higher altitudes, water boils at lower temperatures. This relationship between altitude and boiling point is linear. At an al

Mashutka [201]

Let's assume

boiling point is y

altitude is x

we are given

This relationship between altitude and boiling point is linear

At an altitude of 1000 feet, water boils at 210°F

so, first point is (1000,210)

so, x1=1000 , y1=210

At an altitude of 3000 feet, water boils at 206°F

so, second point is (3000,206)

so, x2=3000,y2=206

now, we can find slope

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

now, we can plug values

$m=\frac{206-210}{3000-1000}$

$m=-\frac{1}{500}$

now, we can use point slope form of line

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

so, we can plug it

$y-210=-\frac{1}{500}(x-1000)$

so, point slope form of line is

$y-210=-\frac{1}{500}(x-1000)$

now, we can plug x=8000

and then we can solve for y

$y-210=-\frac{1}{500}(8000-1000)$

$y=196$

So,

the boiling point of water at an altitude of 8000 feet is 196°F..........Answer

I’m confused on this one

Colt1911 [192]

Call M the midpoint. The coordinate of this point is given by....

M=(x1+x2 /2, y1+y2 /2)

So (3,7)=(x1+0 /2, y1+ -5 /2). or

3= x1/2. or x1=6 and

7=y1-5 /2. or 14=y1-5 or y1=19

B is at the point (6,19)
