Why is the median better to represent the data of a stem and leaf plot? I NEED THE ANSWER NOW PLSSSS

Mathematics

Answer:

The median value is better because it is not affected by the skewness of the data

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is  better in representing the data of a stem and leaf plot because the median value is not affected so much by outliers and skewness of the data. for example:  for a downward skewed stem and leaf plot the value of the median is greater than the mean value

Hence the median value is a better representation of the central tendency

Answer:

  1. y < -2x +3
  2. y > 1/2x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of each boundary line, look for the y-intercept. Then find the rise and run to the next grid intersection to the right that is crossed by that line. The equation for the line is ...

  y = mx + b . . . . . . m = rise/run = slope; b = y-intercept.

__

The lines are both dashed, so the inequalities will not include the "or equal to" case. For line (1), the shading is below the line, so the appropriate inequality symbol is <. For line (2), the shading is above the line, so the appropriate inequality symbol is >.

__

<u>Line 1</u>

y-intercept = +3. m = -2/1 = -2

  y < -2x +3

<u>Line 2</u>

y-intercept = -2. m = 1/2

  y > 1/2x -2

Aleksandr [31]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Members of a research team are considering three studies related to sleep and learning. The first study involves comparing the scores on a post-study test of learning from two groups of randomly chosen adults, with one group getting at least 7 hours of sleep per night for a week and the other group getting at most 6 hours  of sleep per night for a week. A second study involves asking a random sample of students at a large university to report the average number of hours of sleep they get each night and their college grade point average. A third study involves asking a random sample of high school students in a large school district whether they feel they get enough sleep to stay alert throughout the school day.

Which study appears to look for an association between two variables without actively manipulating either one. What are those variables ?

Solution :

The second study in the context is involved in asking for a random sample of the students at an university to provide a report the average hours of sleep that everybody get each night and also the grade point of their college appears for association between these two variables without actively changing either of one.

These variables are the grade point average of the students and the numbers of hours of sleep.

A rational number can be written as the ratio of one blank to another and can be represented by a repeating or blank decimal
DaniilM [7]
<span>A rational number can be written in the form:

</span>\frac{p}{q}; \  called \ the \ ratio \\ \\ where \ p \ and \ q \ are \ whole \ numbers<span>

The number $q$ isn't equal to zero because the division by zero is not defined. So we can represent rational numbers by a repeating or terminating decimal, for instance in the following four exercises we have:

</span>\frac{2}{3}=0.6666...=0.\stackrel{\frown}{6} \\ \\ \frac{5}{8}=0.625000...=0.625\stackrel{\frown}{0} \\ \\ \frac{3}{1}=3.000...=3.\stackrel{\frown}{0} \\ \\ \frac{3446}{2475}=1.392323...=1.39\stackrel{\frown}{23}<span>

Step-by-step explanation:

this is called 45° ~ 45°~ 90° special triangle

the right angles has a length of x while hypotenuse has x√2

since in this triangle the given right sides' length = 3, hypotenuse must be = 3√2
