Answer:

c. Mode

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is the average obtained by adding all values and then dividing by the size of the values. Here, adding A and B etc is not clear.

Median is the middle value of a set of numeric values. To find a median, values should be sort-able from smallest to the largest. If there is no unique middle value, then the average of the middle values has to be taken. Here, average of the two different grades is not clear.

Mode is the value that occurs most often. Clearly C occurs most often.

Mid-range value is the mean of the difference between largest value and the smallest value. Here, difference between A and F is not clear.

Mean,median,Mid-range are applied to numeric values where mode is also suitable for categorical values.

Therefore, the most appropriate measure of central tendency for the data described is mode

Let v1=(2,-6) and v2=(-4,7)
seropon [69]

The magnitude of each vector is the Pythagorean sum of its components.


a. |v1| = √(2² + (-6)²) = √40 = 2√10

|v2| = √((-4)² + 7²) = √65


b. To make each vector into a unit vector, divide each component by the vector's magnitude.

u1 = v1/|v1| = (2/(2√10), -6/(2√10))

u1 = (√10/10, -3√10/10)


u2 = v2/|v2| = (-4/√65, 7/√65)

u2 = (-4√65/65, 7√65/65)

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Therefore you will have to wait 11 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the number of minutes between 5:00am and 8:37am

60 mins in an hour.

8-5=3 hours

60x3=180+37=217 minutes

Divide 217 by 12 to see how many bus stops have already been made

217/12=18

18*12=216

217-216=1 minute

12-1=11 minutes



Hope this helps!
