Answer:

The median number of hours worked per week for the sample of 13 high school science teachers is 52.

Step-by-step explanation:

Median of a data set:

The median of a data set is the element that separates the lower 50% of the set from the upper 50%.

If the cardinality n of the set is odd, the median is the element at the position (n+1)/2 of the sorted sed.

If the cardinality n of the set is even, the median is the mean between the elements at the position n/2 and (n/2)+1 of the sorted sed.

In this question:

Hours worked for the sample of 13 high school science teachers:

55, 58, 52, 52, 56, 59, 48, 63, 52, 52, 50, 52, 56

Sorting in an ascending way:

48, 50, 52, 52, 52, 52, 52, 55, 56, 56, 58, 59, 63

Cardinality of 13, so odd, the median is the element at the 13+1/2 = 7th position of the sorted set, which is 52.

The median number of hours worked per week for the sample of 13 high school science teachers is 52.

The smaller triangle was dilated to form the larger triangle. What is the value of x?
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The value of x is 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of x is 14 because the smaller triangle was dilated by 3 to get the bigger triangle. I figured this out because

9 ÷ 3 = 3

so this would mean that 5 was dilated by 3 also. So to figure this out, it would be

5 × 3 = 15

1 of that 15 is already there.

So this means that

15-1=14

A=14

I hope this helps you.

Does anyone know the answer? Please and Thank you! Algebra
Over [174]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

we can see the slope is down hill,  so it's  negative

when the X is zero then it's 2

b = 2

slope is rise over run  2/3

y = -2/3x + 2

the slope is -2/3  (note the negative)

the y intercept is 2

   y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - (-1) = 4[x - (-3)]
   y + 1 = 4(x + 3)
   y + 1 = 4(x) + 4(3)
   y + 1 = 4x + 12
       - 1           - 1
         y = 4x + 11

The answer is B.
