Answer:

In this data set, the number 8 is an outlier.

An outlier is a value that is far away from the rest of the numbers (either a lot smaller or a lot greater).

Because there is an outlier, the measure of center that best represents the data would be the median (the middle value).

The mean will not be accurate because the outlier will make it smaller than what is actually being represented in all of the numbers but one.

Hope this helps!!!!

A store sells three types of note cards. There are three sizes of each type. Show two ways to find the total number of notecards

bonufazy [111]

Answer: There are 9 different types of note cards that the store sells.

We can use the Fundamental Counting Principle to determine the total number of options.

There are two different events in this problem. First, there are 3 kinds of cards. Second, there are 3 sizes for each kind.

Simply, multiply the 3 by the other 3 and you have 9 different options.

Just think, each card would have a small, medium and larger option. So there are 3 groups of 3 or 9 total options.

X = ? y = ? 16 45 degrees

mezya [45]

Let's put more details in the figure to better understand the problem:

Let's first recall the three main trigonometric functions:

$\text{ Sine }\theta\text{ = }\frac{\text{ Opposite Side}}{\text{ Hypotenuse}}$ $\text{ Cosine }\theta\text{ = }\frac{\text{ Adjacent Side}}{\text{ Hypotenuse}}$ $\text{ Tangent }\theta\text{ = }\frac{\text{ Opposite Side}}{\text{ Adjacent Side}}$

For x, we will be using the Cosine Function:

$\text{ Cosine }\theta\text{ = }\frac{\text{ Adjacent Side}}{\text{ Hypotenuse}}$ $Cosine(45^{\circ})\text{ = }\frac{\text{ x}}{\text{ 1}6}$ $(16)Cosine(45^{\circ})\text{ = x}$ $(16)(\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{2}})\text{ = x}$ $\text{ }\frac{16}{\sqrt[]{2}}\text{ x }\frac{\sqrt[]{2}}{\sqrt[]{2}}\text{ = }\frac{16\sqrt[]{2}}{2}$ $\text{ 8}\sqrt[]{2}\text{ = x}$

Therefore, x = 8√2.

For y, we will be using the Sine Function.

$\text{ Sine }\theta\text{ = }\frac{\text{ Opposite Side}}{\text{ Hypotenuse}}$ $\text{ Sine }(45^{\circ})\text{ = }\frac{\text{ y}}{\text{ 1}6}$ $\text{ (16)Sine }(45^{\circ})\text{ = y}$ $\text{ (16)(}\frac{1}{\sqrt[]{2}})\text{ = y}$ $\text{ }\frac{16}{\sqrt[]{2}}\text{ x }\frac{\sqrt[]{2}}{\sqrt[]{2}}\text{ = }\frac{16\sqrt[]{2}}{2}$ $\text{ 8}\sqrt[]{2}\text{ = y}$

Therefore, y = 8√2.
