Describe and explain the difference between the mean, median, and mode.

Mathematics

Vlada [557]3 years ago

Answer:

Mean, median and mode are measures of central tendency. The median is a better measure of central tendency when the given data contains outliers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean, median and mode are all measures of central tendency. These are statistical information that gives the middle or centre of a set of data. Since the values are central, they usually represent the entire distribution.

The mean is the obtained by dividing the sum of all the scores by the number of scores. The median is the middle value when numbers are arranged in increasing or decreasing order of magnitude. The mode is the most frequently occurring score in a distribution.

Let us see an example of the median as a measure of central tendency. Given the set of values; 4, 10, 12, and 26, the median is obtained from the average of the two middle numbers in the set of values which are 10 and 12 as seen from the set of values above. Hence the median of this set of values is 11.

The median can be a very good measure of central tendency, even better than the mean mostly in situations where there are outliers, or extreme values.

What is the domain and range
Rainbow [258]

Well, keep in mind that the domain of a function is the entire set of possible values of the independent variable. To make it more clear, the domain is the set of all possible x-values, which will make the function work, and with real y-values as the output. So, the range would be the set of all of the second elements of an ordered pair (y-coordinates).

If you made a T chart like the picture you have above, you would have to put x (age of person) and y (books read).

So,

x = age of person

y = books read

Employees at a company are given £1,300 to spend on items for the office. They decide to buy a coffee machine and as many bean b
suter [353]

Answer:

£10

Step-by-step explanation:

There may be a far easier way to do this, but this is how I did it and still came up with the correct solution.

-Assuming they buy at least 15 bags, they will get a 20% discount.

-20% discount would mean they only pay 80% of the original price. 80%=.80

-let x represent number of bean bags

£50 per bean bag multiplied by sale price .80, plus cost of coffee machine £370 must be equal to or less than £1300.

(50x)(.80) + 370 = 1300

Simplify:

40x + 370 =1300

Subtract 370 from both sides

40x = 930

Divide both sides by 40

X=93/4

Simplify fraction

23 1/4

=23.25

But since they cant buy .25 (quarter) of a bean bag, we reduce* to nearest whole number. We can not increase* to nearest whole number as this would exceed their budget.

23 bean bags. They can buy 23 bean bags at £40 each + coffee machine for £370.

£40(23) + £370 = £1290

£1300-£1290=£10

I hope this helps!

cook books have recipes that are designed for 4 people. if a particular recipe in a cook book calls for 3 eggs, how many eggs wo
kolezko [41]

Answer:

10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If the recipe is designed for 4 people than you would need 6 eggs for 8 people (8 is twice as many as 4 so you need twice as many eggs.) similarly, 14 is 3.5 times as many as 4 (14/4=3.5) so you would need 3x3.5=10.5 eggs.

Not sure how that works but I hope this helped!
