The answer would 1/2
to get a good estimate, you should use benchmarks. benchmarks can be 0,1/2. or 1
round 1/12 to 0 and 3/8 to 1/2.
when you add 0 and 1/2, you get 1/2.
that would mean the best estimate would be around 1/2.
hope this helps! :)

german
If I understand what you are asking, you can use the median as an average since it is not affected by the mean ( median is a measure of center).  Since a mean is affected by outliers, it might lower the score if there are very low outliers. But note that if there are outliers way <em>greater </em>it can increase the average. You can use the Inter Quartile Range if shown on a box plot ( measure of variability).

Answer:

Width=37in

Length=55in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x in be the width dimension, the length dimension will be x+18 in. Area of a rectangle is calculated as A=lw. Given  the area as2143 sq in, x can be calculated as:

Area= x(18+x)\\\\=18x+x^2\\\\

#Substitute for every x in our function to find the true value of x:

x=37\\\\A=x^2+18x\\\\=37^2+18\times37\\\\=2035 \ in^2#l=37+18=55in

for x=38:

x=38\\\\A=x^2+18x\\\\=38^2+18\times38\\\\=2128 \ in^2#l=38+18=56in

For x=39:

x=39\\\\A=x^2+18x\\\\=39^2+18\times39\\\\=2223 \ in^2#l=39+1854in

From the calculations above, A television with a width of 37 in and length 55in has its area closest to 2143 sq in.

No, it is not possible for Eric to have spent 35 minutes playing basketball if he plays for a total of exactly 95

<h3>How to form a linear equation</h3>

Let the time taken to play basketball be "x"

Let the time taken to play volleyball be "y"

According to the information given, Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day, then;

x + y = 95

If he plays basketball for 25 minutes long, then;

x = 25

The pair of linear equations that represents the statement are:

x  + y = 95
x = 25

The time it takes Eric to play volleyball every day is expressed as:

y = 95 - x

y = 95 - 25

y = 70 minutes

No, it is not possible for Eric to have spent 35 minutes playing basketball if he plays for a total of exactly 95
