Answer:

Mean = 100

Median = 96

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

C_v = 30\% --- coefficient of variation

mode = 88

Skp = 0.4

Required

The mean and the median

The coefficient of variation is calculated using:

C_v = \frac{\sigma}{\mu}

Where:

\mu \to mean

So:

30\% = \frac{\sigma}{\mu}

Express percentage as decimal

0.30 = \frac{\sigma}{\mu}

Make \sigma the subject

\sigma = 0.30\mu

The coefficient of skewness is calculated using:

Skp = \frac{\mu - Mode}{\sigma}

This gives:

0.4 = \frac{\mu - 88}{\sigma}

Make \sigma the subject

\sigma = \frac{\mu - 88}{0.4 }

Equate both expressions for \sigma

0.30\mu = \frac{\mu - 88}{0.4 }

Cross multiply

0.4*0.30\mu = \mu - 88

0.12\mu = \mu - 88

Collect like terms

0.12\mu - \mu =  - 88

-0.88\mu =  - 88

Divide both sides by -0.88

\mu =  100

Hence:

Mean = 100

Calculate \sigma

\sigma = 0.30\mu

\sigma = 0.30 * 100

\sigma = 30

So:

Also, the coefficient of skewness is calculated using:

Skp = \frac{3 * (Mean - Median)}{\sigma}

0.4= \frac{3 * (100 - Median)}{30}

Multiply both sides by 30

0.4*30= 3 * (100 - Median)

Divide both sides by 3

0.4*10= 100 - Median

4= 100 - Median

Collect like terms

Median = 100 - 4

Median = 96

Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

The ADF is 90 degrees so the CAF will also be 90

So you do

( x + 15 ) + 90 + 35 = 180

x + 15 + 90 + 35 - 90 = 180 -90

x + 15 + 35 = 90

x + 15 + 35 - 35 = 90 - 35

x + 15 = 55

x + 15 - 15 = 55 - 15

x = 40

Write a system of equations, with one equation describing the cost to bowl at Bowl-o-Rama and the other describing the cost to b
ZanzabumX [31]

Complete question :

Write a system of equations, with one equation describing the cost to bowl at Bowl-o-Rama and the other describing the cost to bowl at Bowling Pinz. For each equation, let x represent the number of games played and let y represent the total cost.

Bowl-O-Rama rents shoes for $2 and each game cost $2.50

Bowling Pinz rents shoes for $4 and each game cost $2

Answer:

Bowl-O-Rama:

y = $2 + $2.50x

Bowling pinz:

y = $4 + $2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost is the sum of shoe rental plus the product of the unit game rate and the number of games played.

Total cost, y

x = number of games played

Bowl-O-Rama:

y = Shoe rent + (unit rate per game * number of games)

y = $2 + ($2.50 * x)

y = $2 + $2.50x

Bowling Pinz :

y = Shoe rent + (unit rate per game * number of games)

y = $4 + ($2 * x)

y = $4 + $2x
