The mean is 12.1 and the median is 9.

To find the mean you add together all the values (8,8,9,9,9,9,9,10,10,40) and divide the sum (121) by the number of values there are (10). Thus making the mean 12.1.

To find the median, you sort the values numerically, and find the middle-most number. When doing so, you find that there are 2 numbers in the middle of this value set (since there are an even number of values). Since the 2 left-over values are 9, the median is 9.

I hope this helps!

2/5

Since 12 out of 30 marbles were black, you can assume that the percentage of black marbles in the bag is 40% (Ex: 12/30=.4) The probability that the marble you pick is black is equal to the percentage of black marbles in the bag. 40% is equal to 2/5.

Explain why a quadratic equation with a positive discriminant has two real solutions, a quadratic equation with a negative discr
Bad White [126]

Answer:

A quadratic equation can be written as:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0.

where a, b and c are real numbers.

The solutions of this equation can be found by the equation:

x = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2*a}

Where the determinant is D = b^2 - 4*a*c.

Now, if D>0

we have the square root of a positive number, which will be equal to a real number.

√D = R

then the solutions are:

x = \frac{-b +- R }{2*a}

Where each sign of R is a different solution for the equation.

If D< 0, we have the square root of a negative number, then we have a complex component:

√D = i*R

x = \frac{-b +- C*i }{2*a}

We have two complex solutions.

If D = 0

√0 = 0

then:

x = \frac{-b +- 0}{2*a} = \frac{-b}{2a}

We have only one real solution (or two equal solutions, depending on how you see it)
