6. Often, judging the symmetry and skewness of such distributions is not easy to do by eye, especially when they are asymmetrical or skewed in different ways. Here, the mean of set A is about 7, so the data is skewed to the left more than for set B, which has a mean of about 5.4--closer to the middle of the range.
Both data sets have the same range: 2–10. Set A's mode of 8 is higher than set B's mode of 6.
Hence, the only true statement appears to be
... B. Set B has the lesser mean.
7. For each of the 3 choices of meat, there are 3 choices of bread, and for each of any of those 9 choices, there are 4 choices of condiment—a total of 3×3×4 = 36 choices in all. The best answer is ...

For the first question, the chance of rolling a six is a 1/6 chance because there is one six and six different sides that could be rolled. As a percent, it would be 16.6 %. The probability of rolling an odd number on the second roll would be a 3/6 chance, which as a percent is 50 %. For the second question, both probabilities are 33 % because in both instances you are drawing three cards from nine total, so it would be 3/9. For the third question, the probability of drawing a blue marble is 3/5, because there are three blue marbles and five total marbles. As a percent, this is 60 %. Following this up with a green marble would be 2/4, because there are now 2 green marbles and four total marbles. One of the marbles was not replaced, so we have one less marble. 2/4 as a percent is 50%.
Answer:
<em>The sale price is $34</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
If we are given the regular price P and the markdown percentage r, we follow these steps:
1) Calculate the markdown or discount amount M.
M = P*r/100
2) Subtract it from the regular price:
S = P - M
S is the sale price.
Example: The regular price is $40 and the markdown percentage is 15%. Thus:
1) M = $40*15/100 = $6
2) S = $40 - $6 = $34
The sale price is $34
Multiply 250 by 120 and the answer is 300,000ft2
Given:
Melinda walked to the mall at 4 miles per hour and then rode back home in a bus at 24 miles per hour.
Total traveling time was 14 hours.
To find:
The distance between Melinda's house and mall.
Solution:
Formula used:
Let x miles be the distance between Melinda's house and mall.
Melinda walked to the mall at 4 miles per hour. So, the time taken by Melinda is hours.
Speed of bus is 24 miles per hour. So, the time taken by bus is hours.
Total traveling time was 14 hours.
Divide both sides by 7.
Therefore, the mall is 48 miles far from Melinda's house.
