Answer:

a) only extreme values are used in its calculation.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a data set, the range is given by the subtraction of it's highest value by it's lowest value.

The disadvantage is that it gives a high weight to extreme values, not focusing on central values. So the correct answer is given by option a

Graph the image of trapezoid ABCD after a translation 3 units left .​
Kay [80]

Answer:

A: (-8, -1)

B: (2, -1)

C: (2, 5)

D: (-6, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the trapezoid ABCD was able to translate 3 units to the left, we'll only need to calculate for all the input values!

Trapezoid in present:

A - -5

B - 5

C - 5

D - -3

Now move the units to the left!

Trapezoid in the future:

A - -8

B - 2

C - 2

D - -6

Then add the y values into the units

A: (-8, -1)

B: (2, -1)

C: (2, 5)

D: (-6, 5)

Write an equation of the parabola in intercept form with x-intercepts of 12 and -6; and an axis of symmetry of (14, 4).
xenn [34]

Intercept form is: y = a(x - p)(x - q)  

It is given that:  p = 14, q = -6, x = 14, y = 4

4 = a(14 - 12)(14 - (-6))

4 = a(2)(20)

4 = 40a

\frac{4}{40} = \frac{40a}{40}

\frac{1}{10} = a

Answer: y = \frac{1}{10}(x - 14)(x + 6)

In 2009, the American Time Use Survey found that the average American spends 2.8 hours a day watching TV. Suppose the standard d
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

4.72 hours/day

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean time spent watching TV (μ) = 2.8 hours a day  

Standard deviation (σ) = 1.5 hours a day

The 90th percentile (upper 10%) of a normal distribution has an equivalent z-score of roughly z = 1.282. The minimum time spent watching TV, X, at the 90th percentile is:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \\1.282=\frac{X-2.8}{1.5}\\ X=4.72\ hours/day  

On a typical day, you must watch at least 4.72 hours of TV to be in the upper 10%.

Geometry question, any help is appreciated
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Hence, the ratios are given by 5:7, 25:49, 125:343.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two spheres such that:

Volume of small sphere V_{s} = 250 yd^{3}

Volume of large sphere V_{l} = 686 yd^{3}.

Then the ratio of volume = 250 : 686 = 125 : 343.

Since, the volume of a sphere = \frac{4 \pi \times r^{3}}{3}, this gives us that the ratio of the radius = ∛V_{s} : ∛V_{l}

i.e. The ratio of the radius = ∛125 : ∛343 = 5 : 7.

Further, as the surface area of a sphere = 4 \pi \times r^{2}, this gives us that the ratioof surface area = r_{s} ^{2} : r_{l} ^{2}

i.e The ratio of the surface area = 5^{2} : 7^{2} = 25 : 49

So, the ratio of the surface areas = 25 : 49.

Hence, the ratios are given by 5:7, 25:49, 125:343.
