We want to find the median for the given density curve.
The value of the median is 1.
Let's see how to solve this.
First, for a regular set {x₁, ..., xₙ} we define the median as the middle value. The difference between a set and a density curve is that the density curve is continuous, so getting the exact middle value can be harder.
Here, we have a constant density curve that goes from -1 to 3.
Because it is constant, the median will just be equal to the mean, thus the median is the average between the two extreme values.
Remember that the average between two numbers a and b is given by:
(a + b)/2
So we get:
m = (3 + (-1))/2 = 1
So we can conclude that the value of the median is 1, so the correct option is the second one, counting from the top.

a. Answer: m = 2
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
f(x) = x² - 4x + 1
f(m) = m² - 4m + 1 = -3
m² - 4m + 4 = 0
(m - 2)(m - 2) = 0
m = 2

b. Answer: k = 2 and k = 5
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
f(x) = x² - 7x + 14
f(k) = k² - 7k + 14 = 4
k² - 7k + 10 = 0
(k - 2)(k - 5) = 0
k = 2 k = 5
(27 mi/hr) x (1 hr / 60 min) = (27/60) (mi/min) = 0.45 mile/minute
Using the same kind of calculation, we can see
that the world record times for other distances
correspond to:
200 meters 23.31 mph
400 meters 20.72 mph
800 meters 17.73 mph
1000 meters 16.95 mph
1500 meters 16.29 mph
1 mile (1,609 meters) 16.13 mph
2,000 meters 15.71 mph
10,000 meters 14.18 mph
30,000 meters 12.89 mph
Marathon (42,195 meters) 13.10 mph
Except for that one figure at the end, for the marathon,
which I can't explain yet and I'll need to investigate further,
it's pretty obvious that a human being, whether running for
his life or for a gold medal, can't keep up the pace indefinitely.
The answer to your question is 25:15
Answer:
(2, -6)
Step-by-step explanation:
5n^2+20n-60
(5n+30)(n-2)
5n + 30 = 0
5n = -30
(5n = -30)/5
n = - 6
n - 2 = 0
n = 2
answer: (2, -6)
