Answer:  D. The Rome data center is best described by the median. The New York data center is best described by the mean.

I just completed the test and this is the correct answer. I apologize for no step by step explanation.

To solve this problem, let us first define what is mean and median. Mean is the average of all the numbers in the data set while the median is the number in the middle of the data set in ascending order.

If we create a box plot for the data of Rome and New York, we can see that there is an outlier in the data for New York. Since New York has an outlier, so the mean is not a good representation on the central tendency of the data. The mean is skewed (distorted) by the outlier. So in this case it is better to use the median.<span>

While the Rome data is nice and symmetrical, it does not seem to have an outlier,  so we can use the mean for this data set.</span>

 

Therefore the answer is:

<span>The Rome data center is best described by the mean. The New York data center is best described by the median</span>

A party rental company has chairs and tables for rent. The total cost to rent 4 chairs and 8 tables is $89 . The total cost to r
puteri [66]
Let C = cost to rent each chairLet T = cost to rent each table

 4C + 8T = 73
2C + 3T = 28 
Multiply the 2nd equation by (-2) and then add the equations together 

  4C + 8T = 73
-4C - 6T = -56
 2T = 17T = 17/2 = 8.5

 Plug this in to the 1st equation to solve for C
 4C + 8(17/2) = 73
4C + 68 = 73
4C = 5C = 5/4 = 1.25
 So the cost to rent each chair is $1.25 and the cost to rent each table is $8.50

A line passes through the points (p, a) and (p, –a) where p and a are real numbers. If p=0, what is the y-intercept? Explain your reasoning. 

<span>p - as "x" never changes with the value of "y", so no matter what y is, x is always "p", so when y is 0, x = p </span>

<span>slope of the line </span>
<span>change in y over the change in x </span>
<span>(-a - a) / (p - p) = infinity - or a vertical line </span>
<span>equation of the line </span>
<span>y = p </span>
<span>slope of a line perpendicular to the given line </span>
<span>inverse of the orig slope or (p - p)/(-a - a) = 0</span>
