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.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME ASAP PLEASEEEE!!!​
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

11.4

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that Triangle ACB is similar to Triangle EFD.

This means that their sides are proportional to each other.

We want to find x or side AB. To do so, we can set up a proportion.

The proportional side to AB is ED. Let's also use BC since we know its value. The proportional side to BC is DF. Thus:

\frac{AB}{ED}=\frac{BC}{DF}

Substitute x for AB, 3.8 for Ed, 15 for BC, and 5 for DF. Thus:

\frac{x}{3.8}=\frac{15}{5}

Reduce the right:

\frac{x}{3.8}=\frac{3}{1}

Cross multiply:

x=11.4

So, the value of x is 11.4

And we're done!

An advertising blimp hovers over a stadium at an altitude of 125 m. The pilot sights a tennis court at and 8° angle of depressio
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Hence the ground distance is about 889m between stadium and Tennis court.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A pilot at height of 125 m(flying the advertising blimp)

angle of depression=8 degrees.

To find :

The ground distance  stadium and tennis court.

Solution :

Using Trigonometric Function we can solve it ,

(Refer the attachment for fig)

Considering above data we get a triangle(ABC)

with point A represent pilot position and C court position and B as stadium.

The height AB=125 m

angle of depression= 8 degrees.

Using

<em>tan∅ =AB/BC</em>

tan(8)=125/BC

BC=125/tan(8)

=125/0.14054

=889.2

=889 m

Hence the ground distance is about 889m between stadium and Tennis court.
