Five surf shops sell the same pair of flip-flops for the following prices: $17.00, $15.50, $15.00, $18.00, $15.00. Find the mean

, median, and mode of the data to determine which measure of center and which measure of variability best describe the data.
The mean is $
. The median is $
. The mode is $

Answer:

Mean: $16.1

Median: $15.00

Mode:$15.00

The mode best describes the data, so the mean is the better measure of variability.

Step-by-step explanation:

How to find the mean:

Add up each value on the data set, then divide it by the number of values on the data set. (Example: $17.00 + $15.50+$15.00+$18.00+$15.00= 80.5/5=16.1)

How to find the median: Order your values from least to greatest, then find the value in the center.

How to find mode: Look for the most frequent value in the data set. What value shows up the most?

. The median is  

$15.00

. The mode is  

$15.00

. The  

mode

best describes the data, so the

Sum of interior angles in a pentagon=540°

148+112+2x+2x+10+90=540

360+4x=540

4x=540-360

4x=180

x=180/4

x=45°

The time it takes to travel a fixed distance varies inversely with the speed traveled. It takes
uysha [10]

first off, let's notice that Purple's time is in minutes, whilst the rate is in miles per hour, the units of both must correspond, so, we can either change the time from minutes to hours or the rate from hours to minutes, hmmm let's change the time to hours.

so 40 minutes, we know there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, so 40 minutes will be 40/60 of an hr, or namely 2/3.
