Answer:

try the second one because it is the smallest and close togehet so maybe that means that the mean is closer to the number and it nots some outlier.

<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

If the box plot or the distribution is spread out then the mean absolute deviations i.e. MAD is high.

and if the box plot is clustered that is the distribution is less spread out that is all the data values are close to the center value then the mean absolute deviation i.e. MAD is small.

From the given four box plot we see that the second box plot is less spread and the data values are close to the mean of the data.

Hence, it will lead to the least Mean absolute deviation.

Write an expression using all six trigonometric functions such that the value of the expression is 3.

iren2701 [21]

The trig functions that you need to deal with are
Sine
Cosine
Tangent
Cotangent
Cosecant
Secant

You need to write a single expression using all six trig functions such that the value of the expression equals 3.

To make this as simple as possible, the first thing I would do is look up the values of these functions and identify which ones are equal to either 1/2 or 1.0 or 2.0

sin(30º) = 1/2
sin(90º) = 1
cos(0º) = 1
cos(60º) = 1/2
tan(45º) = 1
csc(30º) = 2
csc(90º) = 1
sec(0º) = 1
sec(60º) = 2
cot(45º) = 1

If we only had to use three trig functions (sin, cos, tan), one possibility is
tan(45º) + cos(0º)/sin(30º) = 1 + 1/(1/2) = 1 + 2 = 3
noticed how I chose one each of the required functions and the operations so that the result = 3.

Now it is up to you to figure out how to combine all six trig functions so that they equal zero. There are many possibilities for you to choose from..

A store is having 20% off sale. If the reduce price is 90.40, what is the original price

ipn [44]

In order to find the original price, we need to divide by 4. This is because the price was reduced by 20%, it is 4/5 of the original price.

By dividing by 4, we can see that 90.40 is 22.60.

To find the original price, we add 22.60 (1/5 of the original price), to 90.40 (4/5 the original price) to find that $113 is the original price.
