Hey there,
To solve this problem, let us first define what is mean and median. Mean is the average of all the numbers in the data set while the median is the number in the middle of the data set in ascending order. If we create a box plot for the data of Rome and New York, we can see that there is an outlier in the data for New York. Since New York has an outlier, so the mean is not a good representation on the central tendency of the data. The mean is skewed (distorted) by the outlier. So in this case it is better to use the median. While the Rome data is nice and symmetrical, it does not seem to have an outlier, so we can use the mean for this data set.
Therefore the answer is:
The Rome data center is best described by the mean. The New York data center is best described by the median

Answer:
The plumber worked for 1.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 130 + 56x
Substitute 214 for y in the equation
214 = 130 + 56x
-130 -130 Subtract 130 from both sides
84 = 56x Divide both sides by 56
1.5 = x
Answer:
Kela will be able to travel for 7 stops before her money runs out.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Kela wants to visit a friend who lives 8 kilometers away, and she'll ride the subway as she can before walking the rest of the way, and she needs to buy an access pass that costs $ 5.50 and there is also a fee of $ 1.25 for each stop, if Kela doesn't want to spend more than $ 15 on the trip, to determine the largest number of stops she can afford, the following calculation must be performed:
(15 - 5.5) / 1.25 = X
9.5 / 1.25 = X
7.6 = X
Therefore, Kela will be able to travel for 7 stops before her money runs out.
