Hi there! Hopefully this helps!

Question A answer: 2.
To find the <u>median</u>, you simply need to order the set from lowest to highest and finding the <u><em>exact middle</em></u>. So it should look like this:
0, 1, <em><u>2</u></em>, 3, 4. So 2 is the median, therefore 2 is the answer to Question A.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question B answer: 2
To find the <u>mean</u>, you have to add all of the numbers together and then you have to <u>divide by the number of items in the set</u>. There are 5 numbers in the set so it should look like this:
0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10.
Since there 5 numbers in the set, we need to divide by 5.
10 / 5 = 2.
Therefore, 2 is also the answer to Question B.

<em>Edit:</em> <em>Whoops, sorry for the explanation...</em>
Since the average height is 60 inches and its deviation is 2 inches, one deviation to the right (or higher) is 62 inches (60 + 2). Two deviations is 64 inches, three deviations is 66 inches, and four deviations is 68 inches.
Since the average weight is 100 pounds and its deviation is 5 inches, we repeat the process from finding heights to get to 115 pounds. That takes three deviations.
The MORE deviations away, the more unusual it is. So the height (4 deviations) is more unusual than the weight (3 deviations).
First you subtract the two equations
x^2-2x+3-6x
You simplify that and get
x^2+4x+3 = 0
Now we solve using the quadratic formula.
We get x = -1 and x = -3.
Now we find the y values by plugging the x values into the equation.
f(x) is the same as y.
y = (-1)^2 - 2(-1) + 3
y = 1+2+3
y = 6
Now for the other x value.
y = (-3)^2 - 2(-3) + 3
y = 9+9
y = 18
So the two ordered pairs are (-1,6) and (-3,18)
You can use any letter but when you label it x you find x
Answer:
She needs 4 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
To multiply fractions, you just multiply the whole number by the numerator of the fraction.
<em>The numerator is the top number of a fraction.</em>
<em>The denominator is the bottom number of a fraction.</em>
You can think of the whole number 6 as the fraction 6/1.
<h3>Step 1</h3>
Multiply 6/1 by 2/3
6x2=12
1x3=3
So, 6/1x2/3=<u>12/3</u>
<u></u>
<h3>Step 2</h3>
Now you need to simplify the fraction
Because the numerator is a muliple (number that can be devided by) of 3, devide the numerator by the denominator.
12÷3=4
