Answer:

The correct option is;

(Choice B) Both the mean and median will increase, but the mean will increase by more than the median.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are expected to show the differences (advantages/properties) of the mean and median

Note that the definition of the mean is the sum of the value of all data points divided by the number of data points

Assuming the four accountants each earn $ 55,000.00

Therefore, initial mean before getting rd of the part-time accountant is

(55+ 55+ 55 + 55 + 10)/5 = 46

Final mean after the part-time accountant is gone =(55+ 55+ 55 + 55 )/4 = 55

Therefore the mean increases

However, the median is given by the middle value when the list of values are arranged in increasing order as

55, 55, 55, 55, 10

Therefore the initial median is 55

Final median after the part-time accountant is gone is

55, 55, 55, 55

Therefore, final = (55 + 55)/2 = 55

That is the median remains the same that is little or increase.

Therefore, since the range of values for the full time accountants salaries weigh less than the difference between the average full time salary and a single part time, both the mean and the median will increase but the mean will increase more than the median

Answer:

11 is 405, 12 is 107.5, 13 im not sure of

Step-by-step explanation:

First on 11 you can just do 21*21 (the big square) and subtract that by 36 (which is 6*6, the small square), you'll get 107.5.

Then on 12, it is made up of a large rectangle, a small triangle, and a flatter triangle. The top triangle's formula is 1/2(7*3) which = 10.5. The big rectangle is 13*7 = 91. The last triangle is 1/2(4*3) which = 6. It is 3 because 13-10. Add all those up and you should get 107.5.

And I just want to know on number 13 if that 11 is the radius or diameter. I can't seem to tell.
