The median is the moddle number of a data set. If the number of numbers is even add the 2 middle numbers and divide by 2.

Median = (7+7)÷2 = 7

The mean is the averagw value in a data set. You find it be adding all the numbers and then divide the answer by the number of numbers.

Mean: (6+6+6+7+7+7+8+8+8+9) ÷ 10

= 72 ÷ 10 = 7.2

Happy to help! Marking my answer as the Brainliest would really be aprreciated.

For a certain candy, 20% of the pieces are yellow, 15% are red, 20% are blue, 20% are green, and the rest are brown. a

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the question we are given the percentages of each of the types of candies in the bag except for brown. Since the sum of all the percentages equals 75% and brown is the remaining percent then we can calculate that brown is (100-75 = 25%) 25% of the bag. Now we can show the probabilities of getting a certain type of candy by placing the percentages over the total percentage (100%).

Brown: $\frac{25}{100}$
Yellow or Blue: $\frac{20}{100} +\frac{20}{100} = \frac{40}{100}$ ....add the numerators

Not Green: $\frac{80}{100}$ .... since the sum of all the rest is 80%

Stiped: $\frac{25}{100}$ .... there are 0 striped candies.

Assuming the ratios/percentages of the candies stay the same having an infinite amount of candy will not affect the probabilities. That being said in order to calculate consecutive probability of getting 3 of a certain type in a row we have to multiply the probabilities together. This is calculated by multiplying the numerators with numerators and denominators with denominators.

3 Browns: $\frac{25*25*25}{100*100*100} = \frac{15,625}{1,000,000} = \frac{1.5625}{100}$

the 1st and 3rd are red while the middle is any. We multiply 15% * (total of all minus red which is 85%) * 15% like so.

$\frac{15*85*15}{100*100*100} = \frac{19,125}{1,000,000} = \frac{1.9125}{100}$

None are Yellow: multiply the percent of all minus yellow three times.

$\frac{80*80*80}{100*100*100} = \frac{512,000}{1,000,000} = \frac{51.2}{100}$

At least 1 green: multiply the percent of green by 100% twice, since the other two can by any

$\frac{20*100*100}{100*100*100} = \frac{200,000}{1,000,000} = \frac{20}{100}$

Lee wants to gain 10lbs of lean muscle mass. His dietitian suggested the consume 2400 kcal each day and that 25% of his cal come

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

a) He needs to consume 600 kcal from protein.

b) 22 kcal come from fat.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Lee needs to consume 2400 kcal each day and 25% of this income should come from protein.

We are going to use percentages to solve this problem, to find out how many kcal from protein he should consume we need to multiply 2400 by .25.

2400 (.25) = 600

Lee needs to consume 600 kcal from protein.

b) A cup of chili contains 220 kcal If 15% of kcal come from fat how many kcal come from fat?

We are going to solve this in a similar way.

We should multiply the total amount of kcal by .15 which is the amount of fat calories.

220 (.15) = 33

33 kcal come from fat.
