Find the measure of the indicated angle to the nearest degree.

Blood pressure values are often reported to the nearest 5 mmHg (100, 105, 110, etc.). The actual blood pressure values for nine

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

a) 117.4

b) 117.9

c) Option A) When there is rounding or grouping, the median can be highly sensitive to small change

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following data set in the question:

108.6, 117.4, 128.4, 120.0, 103.7, 112.0, 98.3, 121.5, 123.2

$Median:\\\text{If n is odd, then}\\\\Median = \displaystyle\frac{n+1}{2}th ~term \\\\\text{If n is even, then}\\\\Median = \displaystyle\frac{\frac{n}{2}th~term + (\frac{n}{2}+1)th~term}{2}$

n = 9

a) Median of the reported blood pressure values

Sorted Values: 98.3, 103.7, 108.6, 112.0, 117.4, 120.0, 121.5, 123.2, 128.4

Median =

$\dfrac{9 + 1}{2}^{th}\text{ term} = 5^{th}\text{ term} = 117.4$

b) New median of the reported values

Data: 108.6, 117.9, 128.4, 120.0, 103.7, 112.0, 98.3, 121.5, 123.2

Sorted Values: 98.3, 103.7, 108.6, 112.0, 117.9, 120.0, 121.5, 123.2, 128.4

New Median =

$\dfrac{9 + 1}{2}^{th}\text{ term} = 5^{th}\text{ term} = 117.9$

c) Since median is a position based descriptive statistics, a small change in values can bring a change in the median value as the order of the data may change.

Option A) When there is rounding or grouping, the median can be highly sensitive to small change

If f(x) = x^2 + 1 and g(x) = 3x + 1, find [f(4)]^2 <br> 81 <br> 257 <br> 289

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

So g(x) doesn't come in
ok

remember pemdas
inside first
evaluate f(4)
f(4)=4^2+1=16+1=17
now we have

[17]^2=289

answer s 289

Claire is putting up a fence around her rectangular garden. The length is four less than double the width. The perimeter is 22 f

Doss [256]

Answer:

The dimensions are 6 by 5 feet.

Length = 6 feet.

Width = 5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length = L

Let the width = W

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

L = 2W - 4 ........equation 1

22 = 2L + 2W .......equation 2

Substituting the value of "L" into equation 2, we have;

22 = 2(2W - 4) + 2W

22 = 4W - 8 + 2W

22 + 8 = 6W

30 = 6W

W = 30/6

Width, W = 5 feet.

To find the length, L

Substituting the value of "W" into equation 1, we have;

L = 2W - 4

L = 2(5) - 4

L = 10-4

Length, L =6 feet

Therefore, the dimensions of the garden are 6 by 5 feet.
