Answer:

The best measure of center for this data set is the median and its value expressed up to one decimal place is 37.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The best measure of center for this data set is the MEDIAN , and its value expressed up to one decimal place is 37.50.

We have given the data set gives the number of bottles filled by each of the workers in a bottling plant in one day.

The data set is:

{36, 18, 16, 28, 68, 35, 37, 66, 38, 40, 41, 44, 72, 29}

Let us find the median of this data set.

Arrange the values in ascending order:

{16,18,28,29,35,36,37,38,40,41,44,66,68,72}

Median = average of middle entries

Median = 37.5

Therefore the best measure of center for this data set is the median and its value expressed up to one decimal place is 37.50 ....

Answer:

The best measure of center for this data set is the mean and its value expressed up to one decimal place is 40.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The best measure of center for this data set is the mean.

Calculating Mean......

Mean is calculated as summation of observation divided by number of observations.

Given the following dataset;

36, 18, 16, 28, 68, 35, 37, 66, 38, 40, 41, 44, 72, 29

The sum = 568

Number of observations (data set) = 14

Mean = 568/14

Mean = 40.571428571

Mean = 40.6 --- Approximated

The position function for a free-falling object is s(t) = -16t^2 + vt +5. A ball is thrown upward from the top of a 400-foot bui

mixer [17]

Answer:

6.21 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The position function of a free-falling object is,

$s(t) = -16t^2+v_0t+s_0$

Where,

$s_0$ = initial height of the object,

$v_0$ = initial velocity of the object,

Here,

$s_0=400\text{ feet}$

$v_0=35\text{ feet per sec}$

Hence, the height of the ball after t seconds,

$s(t)=-16t^2+35t+400$

When s(t) = 0,

$\implies -16t^2+35t+400=0$

$t=\frac{-35\pm \sqrt{35^2-4\times -16\times 400}}{2\times -16}$

$t=\frac{-35\pm \sqrt{1225+25600}}{-32}$

$\implies t\approx -4.02\text{ or }t\approx 6.21$

∵ Time cannot be negative,

Hence, after 6.21 seconds the ball will reach the ground.

a man spends 1/3 of his wages on food, 1/5 on rent. if he saved the rest what fraction of his wage did he save?

Lynna [10]

Total wages = 1
Food = 1/3
Rent = 1/5
Savings = total wages - food - rent
= 1 - 1/3 - 1/5
= 15/15 - 5/15 - 3/15
= 7/15
