Answer:

2 11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

The average of 2 ⅓ and 3 ½ is 2 ‌11⁄12‌. To find the average, find the sum of the fractions and divide by 2.

2 ⅓ + 3 ½ = ‌7⁄3‌ + ‌7⁄2 = ‌14⁄6 + ‌21⁄6 = ‌35⁄6 or 5 5⁄6

5 5⁄6 ÷ 2 = 35⁄6 × 1⁄2 = 35⁄12 or 2 11⁄12

<h2><u>ANS</u></h2>

The average of 2⅓ and 3½ is 2 11/12

2⅓ + 3½ = 7/3 + 7/2 = 14/6 + 21/6 = 35/6 or 5/6

5 5/6 ÷ 2 = 35/6 × 1/2 = 35/12 or 2 11/12

Finding the Average

Average refers to the sum of the values divided by the count. Therefore, the steps to follow to find the average are below:

Add the given values.

Divide the sum by the count of values.

Equation:

(2 1/3 + 3 1/2) / 2 = ?

Solution:

(2 1/3 + 3 1/2) / 2 = ?

* Change the mixed numbers to improper fractions.

= (7/3 + 7/2) / 2

* Add the fractions. Find the LCD.

= (14/6 + 21/6) / 2

= ( 35/6 ) /2

To divide change the sign to multiplication, The give the reciprocal of the second fraction

= 35/6 × 1/2

= 35/12 or 2 11/12

Final Answer:2 11/12

The personnel files of all eight employees at the Pawnee location of Acme Carpet Cleaners Inc. revealed that during the last six
irina [24]

Answer:

a) For Pawnee:

Range = 11, Mean = 3.13, Mean deviation = 2.44

For Chickpee:

Range =  7, Mean = 4.25, Mean deviation = 1.59

b) Pawnee Location has fewer lost days.

c) variation of the Chickpee is less than Pawnee location

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given:

For Pawnee:

3 1 0 0 2 11 5 3

Max = 11

Min = 0

Range = Max - Min

Range = 11-0 = 11

Range = 11

For Chickpee:

3 6 8 4 4 5 3 1

Max = 8

Min = 1

Range = Max - Min

Range = 8 - 1

Range = 7

For mean of Pawnee:

Mean = (3 + 1 + 0 + 0 + 2 + 11 + 5 + 3)/8

Mean = 25/8

Mean = 3.125

For mean deviation, we find the difference from the mean of each point.

Note: all the negative values will be taken as 0.

Differences from the mean of each point =

(3-3.13)=0.13, (1-3.31) = 2.13 ,

(0-3.13)=0, (0-3.13)=3.13,

(2-3.13)=1.13, (11-3.13)=7.87,

(5-3.13)=1.87, (3-3.13)=0.13

So, our differences are:

(0.13, 2.13, 0, 3.13, 1.13, 7.87, 1.87, 0.13 )

Mean deviation =  Sum of all differences/8

Mean deviation = (0.13+2.13+3.13+3.13+ 1.13+ 7.87+ 1.87+ 0.13)/8

Mean deviation = 2.44

For mean of Chickpee:

Mean = (3+6+8+4+4+5+3+1)/8

Mean = 34/8

Mean = 4.25

Similarly, we need to find mean deviation for Chickpee, for that we need to find the differences first as done above for Pawnee.

Note: all the negative values will be taken as 0

Differences from the mean:

(3-4.25) = 1.25, (6-4.25) =1.75,

(8-4.25) = 3.75, (4-4.25)=0.25,

(4-4.25)=0.25, (5-4.25)= 0.75,

(3-4.25)=1.25, (1-4.25) =3.25

So, the differences are:

Differences = (1.25,1.75,3.75,0.25,0.25,0.75,1.25,3.25)

Mean deviation = (1.25+ 1.75+ 3.75+ 0.25+ 0.25+ 0.75+ 1.25+ 3.25)/8

Mean deviation = 1.59

b) which location has fewer lost days:

This can be found out by the total number of days of Pawnee and chickpee.

Pawnee = Sum of values = (3 + 1 + 0 + 0 + 2 + 11 + 5 + 3) = 25 days

Chickpee = Sum of values = (3+6+8+4+4+5+3+1) = 34 days

Hence, Pawnee Location has fewer lost days.

C) which location has less variation?

Formula for variation = ∑(\frac{x^{2} }{8}) - (mean^{2})

where x = values of the set.

For Pawnee:

mean^{2} = 3.13^{2} = 9.8

Sum of square of all the data points of Pawnee = 169

Variation = 169/8 - 98 = 11.325

Similarly,

For Chickpee:

mean^{2}  = 4.25^{2} = 18.06

Sum of square of all the data points of Chickpee = 176

Variation = 176/8 - 18.06

Variation = 22-18.06

Variation = 4

Hence, variation of the Chickpee is less than Pawnee location

Use factoring to find the zeros.<br> x2 - 9x – 36 = 0
3241004551 [841]

Answer: x=12, x=-3

Step-by-step explanation: For this factored problem, you see that -36 is negative, as well at -9. This shows you that you need to find two numbers that multiply to get -36, and add up to get -9. Two numbers that both satisfy these requirements are -12 and 3. They multiply to get -36, and add to get -9.

Once you have found your values, you plug them into (x+/- __)(x+/- __), which is (x-12)(x+3).

But since the problem asks you to find the zeroes, you set each factor equal to zero, like this:

x-12=0 and x+3=0

Then solve and you have you answer!
