Answer:

426

Explanation:

To find the median number in a set of data start by reordering the data from least to greatest.

original data set:

593, 588, 540, 434, 420, 398, 390, 375

data set from least to greatest:

375, 390, 398, 420, 434, 540, 588, 593

Next, you would usually just have to find the middle number in the data set and that would be your median. However, this data set has no one number that is directly in the middle. So, we will add both middle numbers together and then divide our answer by two.

375, 390, 398, 420, 434, 540, 588, 593

420 + 434 = 854

854 ÷ 2 = 426

Therefore, the median of the given data set is 426.

The Henley's took out a loan for $195,000 to purchase a home. At a 4.3% interest rate

ella [17]

Interest paid after 30 years is $494,546.99.

Solution:

Principal (P) = $195,000

Interest rate (r) = 4.3%

Time (t) = 30 years

n = number of times interest calculated per year

n = 1

Compound interest formula:

$$A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{n t}$

where A is the final amount

$$A=195000\left(1+\frac{4.3\%}{1}\right)^{1\times 30}$

$$A=195000\left(1+\frac{4.3}{100}\right)^{30}$

$$A=195000\left(\frac{100+4.3}{100}\right)^{30}$

$$A=195000\left(\frac{104.3}{100}\right)^{30}$

A = 689546.99

Interest = Amount - Principal

= 689546.99 - 195000

= 494546.99

Interest paid after 30 years is $494,546.99.

In which year will 67% of babies be born out of wedlock?

Leviafan [203]

Based on the trend of the increase in children born out of wedlock, if this trend keeps increasing, the year with 67% of babies born out of wedlock will be 2055 .

<h3>What year will 67% of babies be born to unmarried parents?</h3><h3 />

In 1990, the 28% of children were born out of wedlock and this trend was increasing by 0.6% per year.

If the trend continues, the number of years till 67% of children born out of wedlock will be:

= (67% - 28%) / 0.6%

= 65 years

The year will be:

= 1990 + 65

= 2055

The first part of the question is:

According to the National Center for Health Statistics, in 1990, 28% of babies in the United States were born to parents who were not married. Throughout the 1990s, this percentage increased by approximately 0.6 per year.

Geometry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The two triangles are related by Side-Side-Side (SSS), so the triangles can be proven congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are no angles that can be shown to be congruent to one another, so this eliminates all answer choices with angles (SSA, SAS, ASA, AAA, AAS).

This leaves you with either the HL (Hypotenuse-Leg) Theorem or SSS (Side-Side-Side) Theorem. We could claim that the triangles can be proven congruent by HL, however, we aren't exactly sure as to whether or not the triangles have a right angle. There is no indicator, and in this case, we cannot assume so.

This leaves you with the SSS Theorem.
