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.

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

f(x) = -2x² + 8x - 2

Process

                -2x² + 8x = y + 2

                -2(x² - 4x + 4) = y + 2 - 8

                -2(x - 2)² = y - 6

                    (x - 2)² = 1/2 (y - 6)

Vertex = (2, 6)

Axis of symmetry =   x = 2

y-intercept

                 f(0) = -2(0)² + 8(0) - 2

                 f(0) = 0 + 0 - 2

                 f(0) = -2

Domain    (-∞, ∞)

Range    (-∞, 6]

Determine whether the series is convergent or divergent. [infinity] n = 1 1 n√9 the series is a ---select--- p-series with p =
inna [77]

The series is a convergent p-series with p = 3

<h3>How to know it is a divergent or a convergent series</h3>

We would know that a series is a convergent p series when we have ∑ 1 np. Then you have to be able to tell if the series is a divergent p series or it is a convergent p series.

The way that you are able to tell this is if the terms of the series do not approach towards 0. Now when the value of p is greater than 1 then you would be able to tell that the series is a convergent series.

The value of \sqrt{9}= 3

The formular for this is

∑\frac{1}{n^p} \\

where n = 1

we know it is convergent because p is greater than 1. 3>1

Efectuati impartirea 12xy:3x
adelina 88 [10]

In this question , we have to simplify the given ratio, which is

12xy:3x

First we have to see which factor is common in numerator and denominator,

We can write 12 as 3 times 4, that is

3*4x*y :3x

So the common factor is 3x.

In the next step, we cancel out 3x

4y:1

And that's the required simplified form .

What is the formula for finding slope?
ozzi

Answer:

To find the slope of two given points, you can use the point-slope formula of (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). With the points plugged in, the formula looks like (3 - 2) / (4 - 1). Simplify the formula to get a slope of ⅓.
