Answers:
- a) Mean = 20.4
- b) New mean = 20
==================================================
Explanation:
To get the mean, we add up the scores and divide by 10 (because there are 10 scores at first)
28+13+4+12+32+22+13+22+26+32 = 204
204/10 = 20.4
The mean is 20.4
------------
For part b), we redo those steps shown above, but tack 16 onto the list. So we'll add up all the values (including that 16 at the end) and divide by 11 this time.
28+13+4+12+32+22+13+22+26+32+16 = 220
220/11 = 20
The new mean is 20.
The new mean is slightly smaller than the old mean. Notice how 16 is smaller than 20.4, so this new score pulls down the mean just a little bit.
4. The answer is -7 and 7. Start at 0 and count to the left. That’s -7. Then to the right it’s 7
The second table. A linear function is a function where adding the same amount to x should add the same amount to y.
In table 2, you can see that adding 1 to x adds 2 to y. All the other tables describe non-linear functions.
Answer:
470% is equivalent to the decimal 4.7, which can be rounded to 5
So, 470% of 40 is approximately equal to 5 times 40
which is equal to 200
So, a good estimate for 470% of 40 is 200.
