Answer: the observer should consider to eliminate or to retake the third measure.

Explanation:

The four measures taken are 124.53, 124.55, 142.51 and 124.52.

As it can be easily seen, the third measure is much different from the other three. This means that something went wrong during the observation: it can be either the measure taken wrong or that the number was written wrong (if you switch the 2 and the 4 you get a number similar to the other ones).

If the third measure is not considered, an estimate of the mean would place it around 124.5, while if the outlier (the detatched number) is considered an estimate of the mean would increase to about 129.

Therefore, in order to obtain a more reliable mean, the observer should consider to eliminate or to retake the third measure.

The midsegment of a trapezoid is always parallel to each base true or false
Deffense [45]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u><em>Trapezoid Mid-segment Theorem</em></u> states that : A line connecting the midpoints of the two legs of a trapezoid is parallel to the bases, and its length is equal to half the sum of lengths of the bases

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

EF is the mid-segment of trapezoid

EF is parallel to AB and is parallel to CD

EF=(AB+CD)/2

so

The mid-segment of a trapezoid is always parallel to each base

therefore

The statement is true
