Now, you will consider Option 1, setting a maximum shower time of 10 minutes.

matrenka [14]

The maximum shower time is an illustration of mean and median, and the conclusion is to disagree with Blake's claim

<h3>How to interpret the shower time?</h3>

The question is incomplete, as the dataset (and the data elements) are not given.

So, I will answer this question using the following (assumed) dataset:

Shower time (in minutes): 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9, 12, 12, 12, 13, 15,

Calculate the mean:

Mean = Sum/Count

So, we have:

Mean = (6+ 7+ 7+ 8+ 8+ 9+ 9+ 9+ 12+ 12+ 12+ 13+ 15)/13

Mean = 9.8

The median is the middle element.

So, we have:

Median = 9

From the question, we have the following assumptions:

The shower time of students whose shower times are above 10 minutes, is 10 minutes
Other shower time remains unchanged.

So, the dataset becomes: 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10

The mean is:

Mean = (6+ 7+ 7+ 8+ 8+ 9+ 9+ 9+ 10+ 10+ 10+ 10+ 10)/13

Mean = 8.7

The median is the middle element.

So, we have:

Median = 9

From the above computation, we have the following table:

Initial Final

Mean 9.8 8.7

Median 9 9

Notice that the mean value changed, but it did not go below 8 as claimed by Blake; while the median remains unchanged.

Hence, the conclusion is to disagree with Blake's claim

Last time, one out of every 4 students in our class was absent. This time, after Jen came back, only one out of every 5 students

VMariaS [17]

Answer: There are 20 students and 4 students are not here today.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number of students = 4

Let the number of students be 'x'.

Fraction of students absent = $\dfrac{x}{4}$

If the number of students = 5

Fraction of students absent = $\dfrac{x}{5}$

And Jen came back,

So, the fraction of student absent is also written as

$\dfrac{x}{4}-1$

According to question, it becomes,

$\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{x}{4}-1\\\\\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{x-4}{4}\\\\4x=5(x-4)\\\\4x=5x-20\\\\4x-5x=-20\\\\-x=-20\\\\x=20$

Hence, there are 20 students in our school.

And number of students are not here today is $\dfrac{20}{5}=4$

A cylindrical basket has a volume of 15 cubic feet. If the height of the basket is 1.5 feet, what is the area of the base of the

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

10 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the volume of a uniform cylinder may be defined by the formula:

Volume = Base Area x Height

In our case we are given

Volume = 15 ft³ and Base Area = 1.5 ft

Substituting these known values into the formula gives:

Volume = Base Area x Height

15 = Base Area x 1.5

Base Area = 15 / 1.5

Base Area = 10 ft²
