Find the mean, median, and mode of the data, if possible. f any of these measures cannot be found or a measure does not represen

t the center of the data, explain why.
A sample of seven admission test scores for a professional school are listed below
11.3 10.6 11.7 9.7 11.7 9.5 11.7
What is the mean score? Select the correct choice below and fill in any answer box to complete your choice
A. The mean score is Round to one decimal place as needed.)
B. There is no mean score. Does the mean represent the center of the data?
A. The mean represents the center
B. The mean does not represent the center because it is the smallest data value.
C. The mean does not represent the center because it is not a data value.
D. The mean does not represent the center because it is the largest data value.
What is the median score? Select the correct choice below and fill in any answer box to complete your choice.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a sample of seven admission test scores for a professional school listed 11.3, 10.6, 11.7, 9.7, 11.7, 9.5 and 11.7, the mean of the numbers is the sum total of the values divided by the total number of admission test score. The mean is as calculated below.

Mean = {11.3 + 10.6 + 11.7 + 9.7 + 11.7 + 9.5 + 11.7}/7

Mean = 76.2/7

Mean = 10.9

The mean score is 10.9 to 1 decimal place.

Note that the mean does not represent the centre of the data. It represents the average value of the datas. The mean does not represent the center because it is not a data value. The mean will give a value that is different from the values given in the data.

b) The median score is the score in the centre after re-arrangement. The arrangement can either be ascending or descending order. On re-arranging in ascending order;

9.5, 9.7, 10.6, (11.3), 11.7, 11.7, 11.7

After rearranging, it can be seen that the number at the centre of the data is 11.3, hence the median score is 11.3.

The median represents the center

c) The mode is the scores that occurs most. According to the data given, the score that occur most is 11.7. The score occurs the highest number of times (3 times) compare to other scores in the data. Hence, the modal score is 11.7.

The mode(s) does (do) not represent the center because it (one) is the largest data value.

Concider the functions: f(x)= (2/3)x and g(x)=(2/3)x-3+2. Which statement is true regarding the vertical and horizontal translat
ioda

The function g(x) is a translation to the right of 3 units and up 2 units of f(x), so the correct option is B.

<h3>Which statement is true regarding the vertical and horizontal translations from f(x) to g(x)?</h3>

For a given function f(x), we can write a vertical translation of n units as:

g(x) = f(x) + n

  • If n < 0, the translation is downwards.
  • if n > 0, the translation is upwards.

And a horizontal translation of n units as:

g(x) = f(x + n).

  • if n > 0, the translation is to the left.
  • if n < 0, the translation is to the right.

Here we have:

f(x) = (2/3)*x

g(x) = (2/3)*(x - 3) + 2

By comparing it with the general translations, we conclude that we have a traslation of 3 units to the right and 2 units up.

So the correct option is B.

(a) find the slope m of the tangent to the curve y = 5/ x at the point where x = a &gt; 0.(b) find equations of the tangent line
Trava [24]
<span>(a) the slope of curve is calculated from the derivative of the curve expression y=5/x. In this problem, the slope m=-5/(a^2). (b) x=1, y=5,and m=-5, the tangent line is y-5=-5*(x-1). x=4, y=5/4, and m=-5/16, the tangent line is y-5/4=-5/16*(x-4)</span>
