Answer:
1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Attached to this answer is the diagram of the box plot described in the question, and the means from the plot are calculated thus;
Students; no. of siblings
student 0 2
student 1 4
student 2 7
student 3 5
student 4 2
Total 20
Mean no. of siblings = (total number of siblings) ÷ (total number of students)
Note that number of students here are the once that had at least one sibling, others without siblings are not used in the calculation, hence 5 students (student-0 to student-4) make up total number of students, while the remaining 4 students (student-4 to student-9) are disregarded.
Therefore, mean = 20 ÷ 5 = 4 siblings.
The answer for question number 1 is : 2x + 4
and for question number 2 : 10
Answer:
93,675
Step-by-step explanation:
We see that the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence with first term 997, common difference -5, and last term 252.
The number of terms in the sequence (n) can be found from the formula for the n-th term:
an = a1 +d(n -1)
(an -an)/d +1 = n
(252 -997)/(-5) +1 = n = 150
The sum of these terms is the average of the first and last terms, multiplied by the number of terms:
S150 = (997 +252)/2·150 = 93,675
The sequence sum is 93,675.
