Katelyn’s biology test scores are shown below. Biology Test Scores A dot plot titled Biology Test Scores. The number line goes f

rom 80 to 90. There are 0 dots above 80, 81, and 82, 1 above 83, 2 above 84, 2 above 85, 2 above 86, 2 above 87, 0 above 88 and 89, and 1 above 90. Katelyn’s math test scores are shown below. Math Test Scores A dot plot titled Math Test Scores. The number line goes from 80 to 90. There are 0 dots above 80, 81, 82, and 83, 3 above 84, 2 above 85, 2 above 86, 3 above 87, 0 above 88, 89, and 90. Katelyn says that her biology test scores are much higher than her math test scores. Based on the shape of the data, which explains whether Katelyn is correct? Katelyn is correct because the score of 90 in biology is higher than any of her math scores. Katelyn is correct because her biology scores have a much wider range than her math scores. Katelyn is not correct because her score of 83 in biology is lower than any of her math scores. Katelyn is not correct because the middle of the data is about the same for each plot.

<em>Note: As you may have unintentionally missed to attach the figure. After a little research, I was able to find the figure. I have attached the figure, based on which I am solving which anyways would clear your concepts.</em>

Answer:

Katelyn is not correct because the middle of the data is about the same for each plot.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Calculating Mean for Math</u>

As the mean of a data set is the sum of the terms divided by the total number of terms. So, from the Math mapping data as shown in attached figure

                \mu=\frac{84+85+86+87}{4}

                    =\frac{171}{2}

                     =85.5

<u>Calculating Median for Math</u>

The median is the middle number in a sorted list of numbers. Since, here the number of terms is even.

So,

          Median=\frac{85+86}{2}

                         =85.5

<u>Calculating Mean for Bio</u>

As the mean of a data set is the sum of the terms divided by the total number of terms. So, from the biology mapping data as shown in attached figure

                                         \mu=\frac{83+84+85+86+87+90}{6}

                                            =\frac{515}{6}

                                            =85.83

<u>Calculating Median for Bio</u>

The median is the middle number in a sorted list of numbers. Since, here the number of terms is even.

So,

                                          Median=\frac{85+86}{2}

                                                         =85.5

Conclusion:

From the entire discussion as stated above, we determine that

  • Two measures of the middle of the data are the Median and the Mean.
  • The Median is same in both cases i.e. Median = 85.5
  • The Mean in Math case is 85.5; and in Biology case the Mean is 85.83. So, Mean is very much similar in both cases.
  • Observe in Biology case, the score 90, but it does not the represent the actual of all of her scores in biology.

The score of 90 is outliner and based on her averages, Katelyn’s scores are more or less the same.

Therefore, Katelyn is not correct because the middle of the data is about the same for each plot.

Rosa can clean a house in 7 hours. When Rosa and Amy work together, they can clean a house in about 4.2 hours. About how long wi
Step2247 [10]
First we will calculate rate of work of rosa and amy.
work done by rosa in time t=t*1/7
Work done by Amy and rosa=t(1/7+1/4.2)

t/7+t/a=t/4.2
t=10.5 hr

Always keep remember those formula or logic below

Work rate × Time to finish the job = 1 job done

Work rate = (1 job done) / (Time to finish the job)

Time of doing the job = (1 job done) / (Work rate)

hamburgers cost $2 per lbs and chicken costs $3 lbs and you only have $30 to spend and expect At least 3lbs of hamburger​
kicyunya [14]

If you want at least 3 pounds of hamburgers, then $6 is enough to buy those 3 pounds of hamburgers. If you ONLY buy 3 Pounds, then you also have enough for 4 pounds of chicken. $3 a pound x 4 = $12. You have 2 dollars left to spare, which means you can buy another pound of hamburgers. So 4 pounds each are able to be purchased.
