Answer:

She wants to take unusually of the good and bad games into account

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a basketball coach keeps track of the points scored per game for all of her players.  A trophy is given to the player with the highest mean score at the end of the season.

Mean vs median:

Mean is the arithmetic average of all the entries while median is the middle entry after arranging in ascending order.

Median is not affected by extreme items but mean is very much affected by unusually high or low scores.

Here since the trophy is decided to be given to the highest mean score it is obvious that

She wants to take unusually of the good and bad games into account

Because of this only, mean is taken instead of median.

a cube has sides with the following number: 3,3,6,9,,7,8. what is the probability of getting a factor of 9 when rolled?
muminat

Answer:

The probability of rolling a factor of 9 is 1/2, or 50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number 9's factors are 1, 3, and 9. Three of the six sides of the cube have a factor of 9. Therefore 3/6 of the sides are factors of nine.

Simplify 3/6 to 1/2 to get a probability of 50%.

A sprinkler that sprays water in a circular area can be adjusted to spray up to 30 feet. Turning the radius-reduction screw on t
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Area_lawn = 393.75 π ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum radius : 30 feet

Minimum radius:  30 feet - 0.25*(30feet)  =  22.5 feet

(25 percent reduction)

To find the area of lawn that can be watered, we just need to calculate the area for the maximum radius and the minimum radius, and then subtract them.

Since the sprinklers have a circular area:

Area = π*radius^2

Max area  = π*(30 ft)^2 = 900π ft^2

Min area  = π*(22.5 ft)^2 = 506.25π ft^2

Maximum area of lawn that can be watered by the sprinkler:

Area_lawn = Max area - Min area = 900π ft^2 -506.25π ft^2

Area_lawn = 393.75 π ft^2
