Too add mixed numbers, first convert them to improper fractions:
34/5 + 53/10
Next, find a common denominator, which in this case is 10.
Convert 34/5 so that it has a denominator of 10 by multiplying the ENTIRE fraction by 2: 68/10
68/10 + 53/10 = 121/10
You can either give your answer in the form of an improper fraction: 121/10, or a mixed number 12 1/10
<span>B would be the most appropriate response for this. We don't need to worry about Ashley being in the 85th percentile, that is just extra information they have provided us. What we need to look at is her mean test score is 180, so that is the average score she normally gets on her tests, but then they say she has a standard deviation of 15 which means her scores are normally no lower than 165 and no higher than 195 because she normally doesn't deviate or change her score more than 15 points for her normal 180. So if you take 180 minus 15 you get 165 and if you take 180 plus 15 you get 195, therefore we can determine that the most appropriate answer would be between 165 and 195. The only option that fits in this category is B 185</span>
Answer:
a) Median stays the same
b) Mean is decreased by $9
Step-by-step explanation:
The median is the number or the average of the two numbers that is in the middle of a sorted distribution of numbers,
Here the median number will be the 5th number counting from left or right from the sorted list of numbers. Therefor is is 891.
When 1027 is changed to 946 it will fall between 938 and 1002. So updated sorted list of numbers will now look like,
679, 715, 799, 844, 891, 917, 938, 946, 1002
Here also median will be the 5th number which will be equal to 891.
Therefore, , median will not change.
Mean is the value we get by taking the total value of the salaries and divide it by the number of employees.
In the initial case,
Mean =
When the salary is changed from $1027 to $946,
Mean=![\frac{679+715+799+844+891+917+938+1002+946}{9} =859](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B679%2B715%2B799%2B844%2B891%2B917%2B938%2B1002%2B946%7D%7B9%7D%20%3D859)
Therefor we can see that Mean has decreased by $9.
