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!! :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Things to remember:

1). When we divide a number having decimal by 10, 100, 1000 or any number multiple of ten, decimal point of the numerator shifts left by the number of zeros present in denominator.

Example:    \frac{2.0}{100}=0.02

2). When we multiply a decimal number by 10, 100, or any number number multiple of 10, decimal point of the original number shifts right by number of zeros present in multiplier.

Example:   2.0 × 100 = 200

In this question, 0.014 × 100000 = 1400.000

Therefore, product of 0.014 and 100000 is 1400 because the decimal point in 0.014 moves 5 places to the right.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

8.5E-12

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

Given That, The diameter of an insect cell is 1.7 × 10^-11 meters.

Ariel wants to find the length of the radius of the cell. Radius Is Half of the Diameter.

  • Thus, R = D/2   ⇒  (1.7*10^-11)/2 = 0.85× 10^-11
  • If she performs the calculations on her calculator is 8.5E-12.
