26-20 because there were 20 cucumber seeds. 1/6 is 6. 6•6=36. 36-6=seeds left over. 30 seeds left.
The first step we want to take here is to subtract 6 cups of sugar since we'll need it for something else, leaving us with 10 cups of sugar. It takes 2 cups of sugar for every batch of cookies, so you're going to divide 10 by 2. Luckily, 2 is a multiple of 10 so it's a whole number. By dividing, we get 5. So, we can make 5 batches of cookies while still saving 6 cups of sugar for something else.
The <em>correct answer</em> is:
The mean for July is smaller than the median; and
the mean for August is larger than the median.
Explanation:
A distribution with a positive skew would have a longer whisker in the positive direction than in the negative direction. A larger mean than median would also indicate a positive skew.
Alternatively, a distribution with a negative skew would have a longer whisker in the negative direction than in the positive direction. A smaller mean than median would also indicate a negative skew.
The whisker in the negative direction for July is longer than the whisker in the positive direction. This indicates a negative skew.
The whisker in the positive direction for August is longer than the whisker in the negative direction. This indicates a positive skew.
