A school principal has to choose randomly among the six best students in each grade to be the school captain every month. For th

at purpose, she assigned each student a number. Then she rolled two dice numbered from 1 to 6 three times and selected the student whose number was repeated most often.
Which of the following best describes the method used by the principal?

It's an unfair method because each student will not post the same outcomes.
It's a fair method because each result is an equally likely possible outcome.
It's a fair method because it's a limited number of students.
It's an unfair method because two or more students could get the same results.

Answer:

B. It's a fair method because each result is an equally likely possible outcome.

Step-by-step-explanation :

According to the question , there are a total of 6 students to be selected by the principal.  

So, the principal chose to roll two dice numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 for the selected students and choose the one whose number is most repeated.

Since we have sis sides on a dice , 2 dice = 6\times6=36

The  probability that a student will choose one number :\frac{1}{36}

Thus, the selection of each student is given by the number

\frac{1}{36}

So,each result is an equally likely possible outcome.

So, the principal choose a fair method.

A direct variation function contains the points (–9, –3) and (–12, –4). Which equation represents the function? y = –3x y = –y e
atroni [7]

Answer:

The equation which represents the  function is given by,

x = 3y .

Step-by-step explanation:

The direct variation function contains the points, (-9, -3) and (-12, -4).

Here,

\frac {-9}{-3} = \frac {-12}{-4} = 3

So, the equation which represents the  function is given by,

x = 3y .

During a quality assurance​ check, the actual contents​ (in grams) of six containers of protein powder were recorded as 1530​, 1
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the values of the actual content of protein powder recorded as shown:

1530​, 1532​, 1495​, 1508​, 1528​, and 1511

a) We are to find the mean and median of the contents.

Mean is the average sum of the numbers. It is expressed mathematically as xbar = ΣXi/N

Xi are individual values

N is the total number of values present.

N = 6

xbar = (1,530​+1,532​+1,495​ +1,508​+1,528+1,511)/6

xbar = 9104/6

xbar = 1517.33

Median of the data is the value at the middle after rearrangement. On rearranging from lowest to highest:

1,495, 1508, 1511, 1528, 1530, 1532

The two values at the centre are 1511 and 1528.

Median = 1511+1528/2

Median = 1519.5

b) If the third value was incorrectly measured and is actually 1515, then our new data will become.

1530​, 1532​, 1515​, 1508​, 1528​, and 1511

xbar = (1,530​+1,532​+1,515​ +1,508​+1,528+1,511)/6

xbar = 9124/6

xbar = 1520.67

For median:

We arrange first

1508, 1511, 1515, 1528, 1530, 1532

The two values at the centre are 1515 and 1528.

Median = 1515+1528/2

Median = 1521.5

c) To know the measure of central tendency that was most affected, we will look at the difference in the values gotten for both mean and median.

∆Mean = 1520.67-1517.33

∆Mean = 3.34

∆Median = 1521.5 - 1519.5

∆Median = 2.0

It can be seen that the measure of central tendency with greater deviation is the mean. Therefore, the mean is more affected by the data entry error.

Yen has a salary of $3,722 each month. Her fixed monthly expenses consist of $500 for rent. She also makes the monthly car payme
Zanzabum
I'm slightly confused. Is it saying 500$ is part of her expense or the cap of which she doesn't want to go over?

I'm under the impression 3,722$ is her cap in she makes 3,722/month. If that is true she is well over and the payments are working.
