Answer:

<h3>5 years</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the median of the ages given

2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 8, 0, 3, 5, 9, 1, 4, 7, 6, 1, 2, 4, 4, 8

First we will need to rearrange the median ages in ascending order (from lowest to highest)

0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9

Next is to locate the middle value of the arranged data

(0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4), 5, (5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9)

The total values in both parenthesis are the same(10 in numbers) leaving 5 as the middle number.

Hence the median age of the people in the pool is 5years

The perimeter of a regular hexagon (All sides are equal) is 24x +48. Write an expression to represent the length of one side.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

4x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the number of sides in a hexagon, which is 6. Take the expression that represents the perimeter of the hexagon, 24x+48, and divide it by 6. The easier way to do this is to multiply this expression by 1/6. Which looks like so, 1/6(24x+48). Which gives you the answer 4x+8.

1/2 or (1/2)² which value is greater

Ket [755]

Answer:

when a expression is squared (²) that means it is multiplyed by itself.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1/2)² = (1/2 x 1/2)

1 squared = 1

2 squared = 4

1/4 is smaller than 1/2. 1/2 is greater than (1/2)²

Permutations of the word "Congratulations"

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

There are 15 letters, but if the two A's must always be together, that's the same as if they're just one letter, so our "base count" is 14! ; note that this way of counting means that we also don't need to worry about compensating for "double counting" identical permutations due to transposition of those A's, because we don't "count" both transpositions. However, that counting does "double count" equivalent permutations due to having two O's, two N's, and two T's, so we do need to compensate for that. Therefore the final answer is 14!/(23)=10,897,286,400
