Answer:

a) Mean = $ 6378.6

b) Median = $ 6,294

c) No mode

d) Midrange = $ 6602

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data;

observations :

​$7,542

​$4,853

​$8,989

​$6,294

​$4,215

total number of observations = 5

Now

a) Mean = (Sum of all the observations) / (Total number of observations )

or

Mean = ($7,542 + ​$4,853 + ​$8,989 + $6,294 + ​$4,215) / 5

or

Mean = $ 31893 / 5

or

Mean = $ 6378.6

b) Median

for median, arrange the data in the ascending order, we have

$4,215 , ​$4,853 , ​$6,294 , ​$7,542 , ​$8,989

the median of the 5 observations is the 3rd observation

hence, median = $ 6,294

c) Mode

mode is the highest occurring observation

here every observation is unique thus no mode

d) Midrange of the given observation

Midrange = (Highest value + lowest value) / 2

or

Midrange = ( $4,215 + ​$8,989 ) / 2

or

Midrange = 13204 / 2

or

Midrange = $ 6602

Yes, the different measure of the center differs much

Given 3 sides of a triangle - how to tell it right, acute, or obtuse 8,11, 16
user100 [1]
Using Pythagorean theorem, we can justify our answer.
if c^2 = a^2 + b^2 then triangle is right one,
if c^2 > a^2 + b^2 then triangle is obtuse and
if c^2 < a^2 + b^2 then triangle is acute triangle.

Here a=8, b=11 and c=16
Put these values in the equation
16^2 = 8 ^2 + 11^2
256 = 64 +121
256> 185
So here c^2 > a^2 + b^2  Which means triangle is obtuse triangle.

Answer: Obtuse Triangle

How do I solve this algebra equation X+7=2x-8
ale4655 [162]
You know that we have to simplify the algebra equation, so first you have to combine x and 2x. X + 2x equals to 3x. Now that we combined x and 2x which makes 3x, we have to do 7 and -8. 7 + -8 which equals to -1. Therefore, the answer to this algebra equation is 3x + -1.
