The number of dots tells us how many times we need to add the actual number underneath the dots. So you need to use both.
<h3>
Which number should you use for the mean?</h3>
Let's suppose we have the next set:
{2, 2, 2, 4, 5, 5, 6}
If you graphed it in a dot plot, then you will have:
- 3 dots above the number 2.
- 1 dot above the number 4.
- 2 dots above the number 5.
- 1 dot above the number 6.
A total of 7 dots.
To find the mean, we just compute:

So the number of dots tells us how many times we need to add the actual number underneath the dots. In conclusion, to find the mean you need to use both, the number of dots and the number underneath.

Answer:
2.
Step-by-step explanation:
This option provides all information needed to solve it.
It correctly tells you that H + P = 14, and has the numbers in the correct places.
So remember the acronym "SOH CAH TOA"
- Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse
- Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
- Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
- Opposite = Side that doesn't touch the angle
- Adjacent = Side that touches the angle
- Hypotenuse = Side that is across from the right angle
<h3>A.</h3>
So we see that side a doesn't touch angle
, hence making it the opposite side. And we see that side b is across from the right angle, making it the hypotenuse. <u>Using this info,
</u>
<h3>B.</h3>
So we already know from part A that side b is the hypotenuse. And also since side c touches the angle, it is the adjacent.<u> Using this info,
</u>
<h3>C.</h3>
Next, it has been established that side c is the adjacent and side a is the opposite side. <u>Using this info,
