Answer:

b. exam completion time is negatively skewed

Step-by-step explanation:

A data distribution is said to be negatively skewed when <em>median</em> value of the distribution is higher than the <em>average</em> value of the distribution.

In this example

  • average mid-term completion time is 40 minutes  
  • median mid-term completion time is 55 minutes.

thus median > mean, so the mid-term completion time is negatively skewed. Negatively skewed distributions are also called left-skewed.

romanna [79]

 4x-7\leq 9  inequality could be used to find the number of models Walt builds. Correct option B).

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , Dwight and Walt are building model cars. Dwight builds 7 fewer models than 4 times the number Walt builds.Dwight builds at most 9 models. We need to find Which inequality could be used to find the number of models Walt builds . Let's find out:

Let the  the number Walt builds is x , So Dwight builds 7 fewer models than 4 times the number Walt builds i.e.

⇒ 4x-7

But , according to question Dwight builds at most 9 models i.e.

⇒ 4x-7\leq 9

⇒ 4x\leq 16

⇒ \frac{4x}{4}\leq \frac{16}{4}

⇒ x\leq 4

Therefore ,  4x-7\leq 9  inequality could be used to find the number of models Walt builds which is Dwight builds at most 9 and Walt builds at most 4 .

The length of a rectangle is 4 units less than the width. The area of the rectangle is 21 units. What is the length, in units, o
bazaltina [42]

The formula of an area of a rectangle:

A = wl

We have l = w - 4 and A = 21.

Substitute:

w(w - 4) = 21       <em>use distributive property</em>

(w)(w) + (w)(-4) = 21

w² - 4w = 21     <em>subtract 21 from both sides</em>

w² - 4w - 21 = 0

w² - 7w + 3w - 21 = 0

w(w - 7) + 3(w - 7) = 0

(w - 7)(w + 3) = 0 ↔ w - 7 = 0 ∨ w + 3 = 0

w = 7 ∨ w = -3 < 0

l = w - 4 → l = 7 - 4 = 3

<h3>Answer: the length = 3 u.</h3>
