Answer:

Last one:

The median, because the data distribution is skewed to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

Q1: 7.5

Q2: 8

Q3: 23

Q2 - Q1 = 8 - 7.5 = 0.5

Q3 - Q2 = 23 - 8 = 15

Since Q3 - Q2 > Q2 - Q1,

data is positively (right) skewed

Skeweness occurs because of outliers therefore mean is not a suitable option. Median will provide a better description of the centre

Answer:

The median, because the data distribution is skewed to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

If the longer part of the box is to the right (or above) the median, the data is said to be skewed right. If the longer part is to the left (or below) the median, the data is skewed left.  The data is skewed right.  The median would be a better estimate, because one or two numbers on the high end will cause the  numbers to be skewed to the right, and the mean to be high

The mass of Saturn is 5.686 × 10^26 tonnes. The mass of Earth is 6.04 × 10²¹ tonnes. How many times heavier is Saturn than Earth
andrey2020 [161]
We simply divide the mass of Saturn with the mass of Earth.
5.686 x 10^26 / 6.04 x 10^21

The rule of significant figures when dividing numbers is that the least amount significant figures must be used in the quotient.

Therefore, Saturn is 9.41 x 10^4 times heavier than Earth.

Refer to the rectangle below. The length of the rectangle is x + 12. The width of the rectangle is x + 3.
Elis [28]

Answer:

x^2+15x+36

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is shown in the attachment.

The length of the rectangle is x + 12. The width of the rectangle is x + 3.

Recall that area of a rectangle is Length \times Width

In terms of x, the area is (x+12)(x+3)

Recall the distributive property of real numbers: (a+b)(c+d)=a(c+d)+b(c+d)

We apply this property to get:

(x+12)(x+3)=x(x+3)+12(x+3)

We expand again to get:

(x+12)(x+3)=x^2+3x+12x+36

We now simplify to obtain:

(x+12)(x+3)=x^2+15x+36

The area of the rectangle is x^2+15x+36
