Parking at a large university has become a very big problem. University administrators are interested in determining the average

Answer:

a. Pie chart

This one is the correct option since we use a pie chart when we have categories in the data. And for this case we don't have any category defined at the begin so for this reason the pie chart would be not useful for this case.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case our variable of interest is the average parking time of its students. And we have 280 values for these times. So then the variable of interest is quantitative.

Which of the following graphs should not be used to display information concerning the students parking times?

a. Pie chart

This one is the correct option since we use a pie chart when we have categories in the data. And for this case we don't have any category defined at the begin so for this reason the pie chart would be not useful for this case.

b.Stem-and-leaf display

That incorrect since the Stem and leaf plot is useful when we want to plot quantitative data.

c. Histogram

That incorrect since the Histogram is ideal when we want to plot quantitative data and analyze the distribution of the data.

d. Box plot

That incorrect since the Box plot is ideal and useful when we want to plot quantitative data and see central tendency measures.

One of the legs of a right triangle measures 1 cm and its hypotenuse measures 2 cm.
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

1.7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the hypotenuse: c^{2} = a^{2} +b^{2}. In this case, the hypotenus is given.

1) Substitute the values into the formula.

2^{2} = 1^{2} +b^{2}

2) Solve for b.

4 = 1 + b^{2} \\4 - 1 = b^{2}\\3 = b^{2}\\\sqrt{3} = b\\1.73205 = b

3) Round the answer to the nearest tenth.

1.7 = b

Using proportions, it is found that the actual cost of each pineapple is of $2.12

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount.

In this problem, considering that the waste factor is of 15%, the<em> </em>total price<em> </em>should be of:

P = 0.85 x $14.95 = $12.7075.

For a case of 6 pineapples, hence the price of each is given by:

Pp = $12.7075/6 = $2.12.
