How do u find the median if theres a uneven amount of numbers? what is the median of 1,1,2,2,3,3,5,6

What is the median of the following set of numbers?

Gnesinka [82]

21, 45, 121, 300, 312, 333, 347, 421, 614,

The median is the middle number of a data set therefore you need to arrange the data is order from smallest to largest as I have done above. Then you need to find the number in the middle which is 312 in this case by finding the number which has the central position (position 5 in this case) of the data set. If there are an even number of numbers in the data set, you add them together and divide by 2 though that is not necessary this time as there are an odd number of numbers.

solve the average time for a student to complete this quiz is 24 24 minutes with a standard deviation of 2 minutes. What is the

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The correct answer is "(18, 30) minutes".

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean,

= 24

Standard deviation,

= 2

The range of minutes where 99.7% of individuals completed the quiz will be:

= $Mean \pm 3\times Stdev$

On substituting the values, we get

= $24 \pm 3\times 2$

= $24 \pm 6$

now,

= $24-6$

= $18$

Or,

= $24+6$

= $30$

i.e., 18 to 30 minutes

Cloud [144]

Answer:

$z=\frac{13-20}{4}=-1.75$

Assuming:

H0: $\mu \geq 20$

H1: $\mu$

$p_v = P(Z$

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Let X the random variable of interest (number of correct answers in the test), on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=100, p=0.2)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

We need to check the conditions in order to use the normal approximation.

$np=100*0.2=20 \geq 10$

$n(1-p)=20*(1-0.2)=16 \geq 10$

So we see that we satisfy the conditions and then we can apply the approximation.

If we appply the approximation the new mean and standard deviation are:

$E(X)=np=100*0.2=20$

$\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{100*0.2(1-0.2)}=4$

So we can approximate the random variable X like this:

$X\sim N(\mu =20, \sigma=4)$

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean". The letter $\phi(b)$ is used to denote the cumulative area for a b quantile on the normal standard distribution, or in other words: $\phi(b)=P(z$

The z score is given by this formula:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we replace we got:

$z=\frac{13-20}{4}=-1.75$

Let's assume that we conduct the following test:

H0: $\mu \geq 20$

H1: $\mu$

We want to check is the score for the student is significantly less than the expected value using random guessing.

So on this case since we have the statistic we can calculate the p value on this way:

$p_v = P(Z$

The length of side AI is?

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

AI=3.25 IH= 4.2

Step-by-step explanation

The distance between C and D is 1.3 inches, the distance between E and F is 0.75 inches and the distance between G and H is 1.2 inches. This is true because the model says so. If you look closely together, this is equal to the distance between AI which is the length of AI. The answer would be 1.2+1.3+0.75=3.25. To find the length of side IH you do the same strategy, the distance between sides D and E is 4.8 inches, at the bottom is 9 inches of distance between side I and side F. 9-4.8 inches is equal to 4.2 inches. Therefore, the length of side AI is 3.25 inches and the length of side IH is 4.2 inches. If I am wrong please tell me for feedback, I also hoped that this has helped you in your learning :)
