Answer: Choice A) The mode is greater than the median

Mode = 95, median = 90

========================================================

Explanation:

The mode is the most frequent value. In this case, the mode is 95. All we do is look for the highest bar, and then record the x value connected with it. The higher the bar, the more frequent the value.

------------------------

The median will take a bit more work, but it's not too bad.

First add up the heights of every bar shown:

2+3+4+6+7+10+5 = 37

So there are 37 scores. The median will be in the very exact middle. Divide 37 over 2 to get 37/2 = 18.5

Erase off the 0.5 and we can say that 18 values are below the median, and 18 values are above the median. So we have 18+1+18 = 37 values total.

The median will be in slot 18+1 = 19.

From here, we add up the bar heights (starting on the left and working toward the right). We're trying to see when we reach 19 or higher, since the median is in that 19th slot.

  • Add the first two bar heights: 2+3 = 5. That value is not 19 or larger.
  • Add the first three bar heights: 2+3+4 = 9. Still not 19 or larger
  • First four bar heights: 2+3+4+6 = 15. We're getting closer, but still no.
  • First five bars: 2+3+4+6+7 = 22. We've crossed over 19. The median must be 90 because that x value is tied to the fifth bar.

------------------------

To summarize:

  • mode = 95
  • median = 90

The mode is larger than the median.

This is why choice A is the answer.

HELP URGENT PLEASE

Answer:

A)

15 hours

B)

108 hours

C)

2074.29 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Under the assumption the earth is a perfect circle, then in one complete rotation about its axis ( 24 hours) the Earth will cover 360 degrees or 2π radians.

A)

In every 24 hours the earth rotates through 360 degrees ( a complete rotation). We are required to determine the length of time it will take the Earth to rotate through 225 degrees. Let x be the duration it takes the earth to rotate through 225 degrees, then the following proportions hold;

(24/360) = (x/225)

solving for x;

x = (24/360) * 225 = 15 hours

B)

In 24 hours the earth rotates through an angle of 2π radians (a complete rotation) . We are required to determine the length of time it will take the Earth to rotate through 9π radians. Let x be the duration it takes the earth to rotate through 9π radians, then the following proportions hold;

(24/2π radians) = (x/9π radians)

Solving for x;

x = (24/2π radians)*9π radians = 108 hours

C)

If the diameter of the earth is 7920 miles, then in a day or 24 hours a point on the equator will rotate through a distance equal to the circumference of the Earth. Using the formula for the circumference of a circle;

circumference = 2*π*R = π*D

                         = 7920*3.142

                         = 24891.43 miles

Therefore a point on the equator covers a distance of 24891.43 miles in 24 hours. This will imply that the speed of the earth is approximately;

(24891.43miles)/(24 hours) = 1037.14 miles/hr

The distance covered by the point in 2 hours will thus be;

1037.14 * 2 = 2074.29 miles

Help find x out of these 4 questions i can’t find the answer anywheew
babunello [35]

Answer:

Option D. 11√6/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the side opposite to angle 60°.

This is illustrated below:

Angle θ = 60°

Opposite =?

Hypothenus = 11

Using the sine ratio, we can obtain the side opposite to angle 60° as follow:

Sine θ = Opposite/Hypothenus

Sine 60 = Opposite /11

Cross multiply

Opposite = 11 × Sine 60

Sine 60 = √3/2

Opposite = 11 × √3/2

Opposite = 11√3/2

Finally, we shall determine the value of x as follow:

Angle θ = 45°

Opposite = 11√3/2

Hypothenus = x

Using the sine ratio, we can obtain the value of x as shown below:

Sine θ = Opposite/Hypothenus

Sine 45° = 11√3/2 /x

Cross multiply

x × Sine 45° = 11√3/2

Sine 45° = 1/√2

x × 1/√2 = 11√3/2

x/√2 = 11√3/2

Multiply through by √2

x = √2 × 11√3/2

x = 11√6/2

Can anyone help me how to do this?
noname [10]
The sum of the internal angles in a simple pentagon is 540°.

105 + 135 + 92 + 87 = 419

540 - 419 = 121

The angle is 121
