Answer: 13

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to arrange the numbers in either ascending or descending order.

12,11,13,12,15,16, and 14 hours will then be: 11, 12, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16.

The median will be gotten using the formula: = (n + 1) / 2

Since there are 7 numbers this will be:

= (n + 1) / 2

= (7 + 1) / 2

= 8/2

= 4th number

Since 13 is the 4th number, it's the median

Find the coordinates of point P that lies along the directed line segment AB in a 2:3 ratio given A (-2, 1), B (3, 4).

saul85 [17]

Answer:

$P(x,y) = (0,\frac{11}{5})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$A = (-2,1)$

$B = (3,4)$

$m:n = 2:3$

Required

Determine the coordinates of P

The coordinate of a point when divided into ratio is:

$P(x,y) = (\frac{mx_2 + nx_1}{m + n},\frac{my_2 + ny_1}{m + n})$

Where

$(x_1,y_1) = (-2,1)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (3,4)$

$m:n = 2:3$

This gives:

$P(x,y) = (\frac{2 * 3 + 3 * -2}{2 + 3},\frac{2 * 4 + 3 * 1}{2 + 3})$

$P(x,y) = (\frac{6 - 6}{5},\frac{8 + 3}{5})$

$P(x,y) = (\frac{0}{5},\frac{11}{5})$

$P(x,y) = (0,\frac{11}{5})$

Need help as soon as possible! What is the value of g(3)? 2 3 9 14

Alex777 [14]

g(x) is a piecewise function in such a way that it changes how it's defined based on what x happens to be. There are three cases

Case A: g(x) = x-1 but only if $-2 \le x < -1$ (x is between -2 and -1; including -2 but excluding -1)

Case B: g(x) = 2x+3 but only when $-1 \le x < 3$ (x is between -1 and 3; including -1 but excluding 3)

Case C: g(x) = 6-x but only when $x \ge 3$

The input is x = 3 since we want to find the value of g(3). So we look at the 3 cases above (A,B,C) and determine that we use case C. Why? Because x = 3 makes $x \ge 3$ true. Put another way, x = 3 is in the interval [3, infinty). So we'll use g(x) = 6-x to find that...

g(x) = 6-x

g(3) = 6-3

g(3) = 3
