What measure of center best represents the data set?

inysia [295]

I feel like it would be mean or median, because there is no outlier, making it so that all of the numbers are closely put together.

Put the set into order.

25, 26, 27, 28, 29

So, we know that this is all in order, making it so that we know for sure that there is no outlier.

If you find the mean, it'll represent the data nicely.

We know that both the mean and median represent the data set nicely, because it just does. It's one of those things that are extremely painful and hard to fully explain and have someone understand, but don't worry, it makes sense.

So, it can't just be the mean only or the median only.

It also can't be the mode only, because THERE IS NO MODE!

So, our final answer is mean or median :)

~Hope I helped!~

54. The triangles in the diagram below are congruent.

Reika [66]

Answer:

Angle N should be 64

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle adds up to 180. So triangle JKL already has 60 towards 180. Triangle ONM already has 56 towards 180. So you have to find the other value needed in order to make 180. 56+60= 116 so we need to find the other angle to make 180. To do so just subtract 180-116 and that gives tou the answer 64 so that would be Angle N

20. Joshua sold a batch of tickets for carnival rides. The ratio of adult

nikitadnepr [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

a = original number of adult tickets

c = original number of child tickets

a/c = 2/5

a = 2c/5

(a+70)/(c+300) = 1/3

(2c/5 + 70)/(c + 300) = 1/3

2c/5 + 70 = (c + 300)/3

2c + 350 = 5(c + 300)/3

6c + 1050 = 5(c + 300) = 5c + 1500

c = 450

a = 2c/5 = 2×450/5 = 2×90 = 180

Joshua sold therefore in total

180 + 70 = 250 adult tickets.

and by the way

450 + 300 = 750 child tickets.
