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.

The equation of a linear function in point-slope form is y – y1 = m(x – x1). Harold correctly wrote the equation y = 3(x – 7) us
Yanka [14]

Answer:

The point is (7,0).

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a linear function in point-slope form is as follows :

y-y_1=m(x-x_1) ...(1)

Where

(x₁,y₁) are the coordinates of the point which  the line passes through it and (x,y).

Harold correctly wrote the equation y= 3(x–7)

or we can write it as :

y-0=3(x-7) ...(2)

Comparing equations (1) and (2), we get :

x₁ = 7 and y₁ = 0

So, the point is (7,0).

The correct option is (c).
