Answer:

Given:

A weight-loss clinic advertised that last month its patients, on average, lost 8 lbs

Average refers to mean

a. Last month all of their patients lost at least 8 lbs.

Answer: Mean or average is a measure of central tendency or in other terms refers to the central value of the dataset. If the value of mean/average is 8lb, it signifies that there are some patients who have lost weights more than 8 lbs. So, this statement is False

b. Last month at least one of their patients lost exactly 8 lbs.

Answer: It is a possibility that all the patients have lost their weights greater than or less than 8 lbs. Since the mean is computed by summing up all the values (weight loss in this case) by the total number of observations, it is possible that there can be no patient who has lost exactly 8lbs. So, this statement is False.

c. Two months ago some of their patients lost at least 8 lbs.

Answer: It is clearly mentioned that last month its patients, on average, lost 8 lbs. No information is given about the weight loss of patients before the last month. So, there is not sufficient data to check whether this statement is correct or not.

d. Last month at least one of their patients lost less than 3 lbs.

Answer: It is a possibility that all the patients have lost their weights greater than 3 lbs. Since the mean is computed by summing up all the values (weight loss in this case) by the total number of observations, it is possible that there can be no patient who has lost less than 3lbs. So, this statement is False.

e. Last month, the number of their clients who lost less than 8 lbs was equal to the number of their clients who lost more than 8 lbs.

Answer: Mean is a measure of central tendency which is computed by the diving sum of all observations with the number of all observations (the sum of observations lesser than the mean is compensated by the sum of observations greater than the mean) and for the mean equal to 8lbs, there should be an equal number of people who lost less than 8 lbs and the number of people who lost more than 8 lbs. Hence, this statement is True.

Answer e.Last month, the number of their clients who lost less than 8 lbs was equal to the number of their clients who lost more than 8 lbs is True

Angus Cut His Neighbors' Lawns For The Summer. By The End, He Had $325 In His Lawn-cutting Bank Account And He Paid A Total $75
rodikova [14]

Answer:

C. N = 400 / 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Lawn-cutting Bank Account = $325

Amount paid for gas = $75

Total amount earned = Lawn-cutting Bank Account + Amount paid for gas

= $325 + $75

= $400

Amount earned per every lawn he mowed = $10

How Many Lawns Did He mow?

Let N = number of lawns he mowed

N = Total amount earned / Amount earned per every lawn he mowed

N = 400 / 10

N = 40 lawns

Degger [83]
<span>The tenths place is to the right of the decimal point.</span>
In order to round u number to the nearest tenth, you should <span>to the right of the tenths place. Depending on this number you should determine if you will round up or stay the same (if it is bigger than 5 you will round up, if not it will stay the same).
In our case, the number is 15.5 so it is already rounded to the nearest tenth.

viva [34]

Answer: The answer is given below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, James has a lot of games while his friend Samuel, has 4 times as many games as James.

Let the number of games James has be represented by g.

Since Samuel has 4 times as many games as James, then Samuel's game will be:

= 4 × g

= 4g

The expression for James is g.

The expression for Samuel is 4g.
