Since y+8 is positive, you don't have to find the absolute value since the absolute value is y+8. all you have to do is find a number that makes the statement true for y. the symbol between next to the 3 asks for a number that is greater or equal to 3. So your answer would be
≥-5
A) it is left skewed
B) the median is 5
C) the mean is 5.15
D) the mean would be more affected (a change of 1.05 versus a change of 0.5).
The majority of the data is to the right of the graph; this means it is left skewed.
To find the median, write all of the data values out:
2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7
The middle value is 5.
We find the sum of this set of values and divide by 13, the number of data points, to find the mean:
2+3+4+4+5+5+5+6+6+6+7+7+7 = 67/13 = 5.15
If we added an additional data value at 20, the new median would be 5.5. The new mean would be (67+20)/14 = 6.2. The mean changes more than the median.
I’ve done these questions before and i’ve gotten confused because I have trouble with nagative numbers but i’ve gotten better st it. It’s -5
Answer:
-37
Step-by-step explanation:
Not sure what the method is called, but you do this.
substitute the slope into slope formula
y= -5x+b
substitute the points you have for x and y
-12= -5(-5)+b
solve
-12= 25+b
-37= b
