Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Median is the value that separates the higher data and lower data. In simple terms, it is the "middle" value of the whole set of data. There are two different ways to solve for the median.

1. If the data set has an odd number of values, line the values up in increasing order. Then the value or number that lies in the middle will be the median.

  • For example, if we are given a data set {1, 3, 4, 2, 5}. First, we line them up by increasing order, which becomes {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}. Since it is an odd number set, we can directly get the median which is 3.

2. If the data set has an even number of values, line the values up in increasing order. Then there will be two number that lies in the "middle" together. We add them up and divide them by 2. The average of the two numbers will be the median of the set.

  • For example, if we are given a data set {2, 6, 4, 10, 8, 12}. First, we line them up by increasing order, which becomes {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12}. Since it is an even number set, we get our median from the two numbers in the middle, which are {6, 8}. We add them together to get 14 and then divide by 2 which is 7. So the median will be 7.

Hope this helps!! :)

Over what interval will the immediate value theorem apply
koban [17]

Answer:

Any [a,b] that does NOT include the x-value 3 in it.

Either an [a,b] entirely to the left of 3, or

an  [a,b] entirely to the right of 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The intermediate value theorem requires for the function for which the intermediate value is calculated, to be continuous in a closed interval [a,b]. Therefore, for the graph of the function shown in your problem, the intermediate value theorem will apply as long as the interval [a,b] does NOT contain "3", which is the x-value where the function shows a discontinuity.

Then any [a,b] entirely to the left of 3 (that is any [a,b] where b < 3; or on the other hand any [a,b] completely to the right of 3 (that is any [a,b} where a > 3, will be fine for the intermediate value theorem to apply.

Pls help need asap in 10 mins stressing out ://
eimsori [14]

Answer:  The correct option is

(D) {3, 10, 17, 24, …}.

Reasoning:

 We are given to select the sequence that represents the following function with a domain of natural numbers :

The set of natural numbers is {1, 2, 3, 4, . . .}

to find the sequence, we need to substitute x = 1, 2, 3, 4, . . . in equation (i).

From equation (i), we get

Therefore, the sequence that represents the given function is {3, 10, 17, 24, …}.

Thus, option (D) is CORRECT.
