Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

Totally there are 50 tosses.  

Let the number of tosses which resulted head be x.  

Therefore the number of tosses which resulted tail is 50−x.

We get x×1+(50−x)×(−1)=14

x−(50−x)=14

x−50+x=14

x=32

Drag each tile to the correct box. A data set that consists of many values can be summarized using the five-number summary. Arra
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Minimum < Q1 < Median < Q3< Maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Minimum, Median, Maximum, Q3 and Q1

<em>See attachment for complete question</em>

Required

Order from least to greatest

In a dataset, the range is:

Range = Maximum - Minimum

This implies that, the minimum is the least and the maximum is the highest of the dataset

So, we have:

Minimum <         <              <           < Maximum

The median is the middle item; So, the above becomes

Minimum <         < Median <           < Maximum

In a dataset, the IQR is:

IQR = Q_3 - Q_1

This implies that:

Q_3 > Q_1

So, we have:

Minimum < Q1 < Median < Q3< Maximum

Solve x^2 +14x=15 by completing the square
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

x = -15 and x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have to use the complete the square method, we first need to <u>rewrite the equation</u> in the form x^{2}+2ax+a^{2}=(x+a)^{2}.

This results in x^{2} + 14x + 7^{2} = 15 + 7^{2}.

Next, we <u>simplify the equation</u> to get x^{2} +14x+7^{2} = 64.

<u>Factoring </u>the left side gives us (x+7)^{2} = 64.

Finally we <u>solve the equations</u>: x+7=\sqrt{64} and x+7=-\sqrt{64}.

This gives us  x=1, and x=-15
