Answer: A.Median; because the data is not symmetric and there are outliers

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given dot plot , we can see that the data plot is skewed not symmetric .

Aldo there are outliers at 9 since most of the dots are between 0 to 4.

We know that the median provides better description of the center of the data then mean when the data is skewed.

Therefore , the median is a better center for this data because the data is not symmetric and there are outliers.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given problems are absolute value problems, So we need to plug the values of given parameters and get the final result.

We have given here,

a =-2 , b = 3 , c = -4 and d = -6

Now we know that An absolute function always gives a positive value.

Let's apply this strategy in the given problems.

1. ║a+b║

Plug a= -2 and b = 3

We get, ║-2+3║=║1║= 1

2. 5║c+b║

Plug c= -4 and b=3

i.e. 5║-4 + 3║= 5║-1║=5×1 = 5

3. a+b║c║

Plug values a= -2 , b=3 and c=-4

i.e -2 +3║-4║ = -2 + 3×4 = -2 + 12 = 10

4. ║a+c║÷(-d)

i.e ║-2 + (-4)║÷(-6) = ║-6║÷(-6) = 6÷(-6) = -1

5. 3║a+d║+b

i.e 3║-2+(-6)║+3 = 3║-8║+3 = 3×8 +3 = 27

Prove that a triangle with the sides a - 1 cm to root under a

vivado [14]

Question is Incomplete, Complete question is given below.

Prove that a triangle with the sides (a − 1) cm, 2√a cm and (a + 1) cm is a right angled triangle.

Answer:

∆ABC is right angled triangle with right angle at B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Triangle having sides (a - 1) cm, 2√a and (a + 1) cm.

We need to prove that triangle is the right angled triangle.

Let the triangle be denoted by Δ ABC with side as;

AB = (a - 1) cm

BC = (2√ a) cm

CA = (a + 1) cm

Hence,

${AB}^2 = (a -1)^2$

Now We know that

$(a- b)^2 = a^2+b^2 - 2ab$

So;

${AB}^2= a^2 + 1^2 -2\times a \times1$

${AB}^2 = a^2 + 1 -2a$

Now;

${BC}^2 = (2\sqrt{a})^2= 4a$

Also;

${CA}^2 = (a + 1)^2$

Now We know that

$(a+ b)^2 = a^2+b^2 + 2ab$

${CA}^2= a^2 + 1^2 +2\times a \times1$

${CA}^2 = a^2 + 1 +2a$

${CA}^2 = AB^2 + BC^2$

[By Pythagoras theorem]

$a^2 + 1 +2a = a^2 + 1 - 2a + 4a\\\\a^2 + 1 +2a= a^2 + 1 +2a$

Hence, ${CA}^2 = AB^2 + BC^2$

Now In right angled triangle the sum of square of two sides of triangle is equal to square of the third side.

This proves that ∆ABC is right angled triangle with right angle at B.
