Answer:

(a) 12.87; 14; 18; (b) median  

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Statistics

(i) Mean

The mean is the sum of all the data points divided by the number of points.

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{Mean} & = & \dfrac{0 + 2 + 3 + 12 + 12 + 13 + 14 + 14 + 15 + 15 + 18 + 18 + 18 + 19 + 20}{15}\\\\& = & \dfrac{193}{15}\\\\& = & \mathbf{12.87}\\\end{array}

(ii) Median

The median is the middle value in your list of observations.

0, 2, 3, 12, 12, 13, 14, 14, 15, 15, 18, 18, 18, 19, 20

Median = 14

(iii) Mode

The mode is the value that appears most often in your list of observations.

0, 2, 3, 12, 12, 13, 14, 14, 15, 15, 18, 18, 18, 19, 20

Mode = 18

(b) Most representative measure

The mean is dragged down by three low values. The median is the measure that is most representative of the data.

The histogram below shows the distribution of your data.

Which fraction is equivalent to 38%?<br> 3/8<br> 9/25<br> 19/50<br> 3 4\5
KonstantinChe [14]
In order to find a fraction, We know that a percentage is out of a 100. This means we can now place our fraction as:

38/100

In order to find the actual fraction, we will want to simplify. Lets find our least common factor and work down from there. Since we know that 2 can go into both of them, lets reduce by 2.

This means our fraction will now look like: 

19/50

Since 19 is a prime number and cannot be divided by anything but 1 and itself, we know that this is our simplified form. 

This means:

19/50 is the fraction equivalent to 38%.

What is the equation of a circle with center (-4,7) and a radius 6
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

( x +4)^2 + ( y-7)^2 = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation of a circle as

( x-h)^2 + ( y-k)^2 = r^2

where ( h,k) is the center and r is the radius

( x- -4)^2 + ( y-7)^2 = 6^2

( x +4)^2 + ( y-7)^2 = 36
