Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be n , then the number divided by 3 is $\frac{n}{3}$ and decreased by 5

$\frac{n}{3}$ - 5 = 6 ( add 5 to both sides )

$\frac{n}{3}$ = 11 ( multiply both sides by 3 )

n = 33

The number is 33

Choose the best reason for using the median as the measure of central tendency.

Alchen [17]

Answer:

The median is usually preferred in these situations because the value of the mean can be distorted by the outliers. However, it will depend on how influential the outliers are. If they do not significantly distort the mean, using the mean as the measure of central tendency will usually be preferred.

Answer:

x=35/78

Step-by-step explanation:

3/2x-11/5=(7/8)*(64/49)

3/2x-11/5=8/7

3/2x=8/7+11/5

3/2x=117/35

x=(35*3)/(2*117)

x=35/78
