Hello!
First you have to list the data in both classes
Class A
41, 42, 45, 46, 47, 48, 52, 53, 54, 59, 61, 61, 64, 68, 71, 82, 85, 90
Class B
41, 42, 59, 62, 64, 69, 71, 75, 77, 78, 78, 80, 83, 84, 84, 86, 86, 87, 92, 92, 95
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First we are going to find the mode and mean of class A
The mode is the number that appears the most
The number that appears the most is 61
The mode is 61
To find the mean you add all the numbers together and divide the sum by the amount of numbers added
41 + 42 + 45 + 46 + 47 + 48 + 52 + 53 + 54 + 59 + 61 + 61 + 64 + 68 + 71 + 82 + 85 + 90 = 1069
Divide this by the amount of numbers added
1069 / 18 = 59.3888...
The mean is 59.3888
The mode is 61 and the mean is 59.39 for class A
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are going to find the range and median for class B
To find the range you subtract the smallest number from the largest on
The smallest number is 41
The largest number is 95
Subtract these
95 - 41 = 54
The range is 54
To find the median you list the numbers from least to greatest and look for the number in the middle
41, 42, 59, 62, 64, 69, 71, 75, 77, 78, 78, 80, 83, 84, 84, 86, 86, 87, 92, 92, 95
The number in the middle is 78
The range is 54 and the median is 78
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hope this helps!
Answer:
12 < x
Step-by-step explanation:
In writing 12 less than a number x, the expression, 12 - x is wrong because "less than" is not the same thing as "minus" (-). Rather, the sign, "<" should have been used as follows:
12 < x.
Answer:
82 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference between consecutive even integers is 2, thus
let the legs be n and n + 2
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
n² + (n + 2)² = 58² ← expand and simplify left side
n² + n² + 4n + 4 = 3364 ( subtract 3364 from both sides )
2n² + 4n - 3360 = 0 ( divide all terms by 2 )
n² + 2n - 1680 = 0 ← in standard form
(n + 42)(n - 40) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for n
n + 42 = 0 ⇒ n = - 42
n - 40 = 0 ⇒ n = 40
But n > 0 ⇒ n = 40
and n + 2 = 40 + 2 = 42
Thus sum of legs = 40 + 42 = 82 inches
