The teacher made progress in standardizing the test scores from the beginning of the year to the end. The MAD tells us this because the difference in the teachers scores from the mean is less at the end. The Mean Absolute Deviation is a measure of variability, and the smaller the number, the less variability there is in the answers. So, in this example there are more scores closer to the average than when they first graded the essays.

A jogger goes 1.5km west and then turns south.If the jogger finishes 1.7 km from the starting point,how far south did the jogger

kakasveta [241]

Hello!

You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this

$a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$

c is the hypotenuse
a and b are the legs

Put in the values you know

$1.5^{2} + b^{2} = 1.7^{2}$

Square the numbers

$2.25+ b^{2} =2.89$

Subtract 2.25 from both sides

$b^{2} =0.64$

Take the square root of both sides

b = 0.8

The answer is 0.8km

Hope this helps!

you have $20:00 to spend on an Easter gift. you buy 1 dozen tulips for $15.35. with the money you have left, how many chocolate

kvasek [131]

All you’re doing is subtracting $15.35 from $20.00. After you get the answer, add $1.25 as many times as possible before it exceeds the number you got from the first subtraction.

$20.00 - 15.35 = $4.65
$1.25 x 3 = $3.75
(Anything over $3.75 would require additional money, so you couldn’t buy any more chocolate bunnies than 3.)

You could buy 3 chocolate bunnies after purchasing 1 dozen tulips for $15.35 with the remaining $4.65 you have left.

I struggle with math myself, so I’d recommend working it out on your own instead of pasting online answers because it pays off in the end! <3
