Answer:

Non fiction : Total number of books

= 14 : 42

= 1:3

Total number of books = 42 books

Non fiction books = 14 books

The ratio of the number of non-fiction books to the total number of books is :

Non fiction : Total number of books

= 14 : 42

Further simplified

= 1:3

You are playing a new video game. The table shows the proportional relationship between the number of levels completed and the t
Lana71 [14]

The time to complete 2 levels is (c) 60 minutes

<h3>How to determine the time to complete 2 levels?</h3>

The table of values is given as

Number of Levels     Time (hours)

2                                         ?

3                                         1.5

Express the blank (?) with y

Number of Levels     Time (hours)

2                                          y

3                                         1.5

The ordered pairs from the table are

(x, y) = (2, y) and (3, 15)

The table shows the proportional relationship

This means that the equation can be represented as

y = Y/X * x

Where

(x, y) = (2, y)

(X, Y) = (3, 1.5)

So, we have

y = 1.5/3 * 2

Evaluate the quotient

y = 0.5 * 2

This gives

y = 1 hour

Convert to minutes

y = 60 minutes

Hence, the time is 60 minutes

What is the difference between the mean and the median of the following distribution?
natulia [17]
The definition of mean, is to add up all the numbers and divide it by how many numbers there are. So, in this case the mean would be 1+1+1+2+2+2+2+3+3+4+4+4+4+5+5+6+7+7+8+8+9 = 86. You would then take 86 and divide that by 21, and you would get 4.0
The definition of median states to find the middle of the numbers. So the median would be 4. 
So you would just take 4 - 4 = 0. 

0 would be correct.
