Answer:
As per dot plots we see the distribution of prices is close but majority of prices are concentrated in different zones. So MAD would be more similar by the look.
<u>Let's verify</u>
<h3>Neighborhood 1</h3>
<u>Data</u>
- 55, 55, 60, 60, 70, 80, 80, 80, 90, 120
<u>Mean</u>
- (55*2+ 60*2+ 70+ 80*3 + 90+ 120)/10 = 75
<u>MAD</u>
- (20*2+15*2+5+5*3+15+45)/10 = 15
<h3>Neighborhood 2</h3>
<u>Data</u>
- 100, 110, 110, 110, 120, 120, 120, 140, 150, 160
<u>Mean</u>
- (100 + 110*3+ 120*3+ 140 + 150+ 160)/10 = 124
<u>MAD</u>
- (24+14*3+4*3+16*3+16+26+36)/10 = 20.4
As we see the means are too different (75 vs 124) than MADs (15 vs 20.4).
Answer: Yes.
Step-by-step explanation:
First ratio
5 : 15
Simplify (divide both sides by 5)
1 : 3
Second Ratio
3 : 9
Simplify (divide both sides by 3)
1 : 3
2 ways
zero product property
easy way
zero product
factor perfect square
m^2-3^2=0
(m-3)(m+3)=0
set each to zero
m-3=0
x=3
m+3=0
m=-3
m=-3 or 3
easy way
add 9 to both sides
m^2=9
sqrt both sides remember to take postive and negative roots
m=+/-3
m=-3 or 3
B is answer
Ex.
f + g = y
-----------
3
3(f+g) = (y) 3
--------
3
f + g =3y
f - f + g = 3y - f
g = y - f
