Both mean and median are measures of the center of a set of data.
Mean is normally preffered to the median except if there is an outlier that has a tendency to affect the mean.
An outlier is a data point that significantly differs from the other data points in a sample.
In the data set above, there is no outlier that will affect the mean.
Therefore, he should use the mean because there are no outliers that affect the mean.
180 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Information given:
- length of Mrs. Flores' garden= 20 m
- width of Mrs. Flores' garden = 15 m
- Scale factor = 3
Since scale factor is 3, to get measurements of sides Mr. Sosa's garden, sides of Mrs. Flores's have to be multiplied by 3. Hence,
- length of Mr. Sosa's garden= 3×20= 60 m
- width of Mr. Sosa's garden= 3×15= 45 m
Diagonal of a rectangle = √length²+width²
Let Diagonal = D,
D= √60²+45²
=√3600+2025
=√5625
=75 m
If Mr. Sosa cut his garden diagonally,
perimeter= length+width+diagonal
=60+45+75=180 m
1) Answer: The part of the quadratic formula tells us whether the quadratic equation can be solved by factoring is b^2-4ac
2) 4x^2+6x+2=0
ax^2+bx+c=0; a=4, b=6, c=2
b^2-4ac=(6)^2-4(4)(2)=36-32
b^2-4ac=4
Answer: b^2-4ac=4
Im pretty sure that answer is four!
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval for population mean is given by :-
(1)
, where
= Sample mean
= Critical z-value
= Population standard deviation.
n= Sample size.
As per given , we have
n= 610

Significance level for 85% confidence : 
By z-table critical two tailed z-value : 
Put all values in (1) , we get




Hence, the 85% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among people over age 40. =
