lesya [120]2 years ago

4 0

Answer:

250.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 + 5 = 8. => (3/8) * 400 = 3 * 50 = 150. => (5/8) * 400 = 5 * 50 = 250.

Mystery Boxes: Breakout Rooms

ollegr [7]

Answer:

$\begin{array}{ccccccccccccccc}{1} & {3} & {4} & {12} & {15} & {18}& {18 } & {26} & {29} & {30} & {32} & {57} & {58} & {61} \\ \end{array}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\begin{array}{ccccccccccccccc}{1} & {[ \ ]} & {4} & {[ \ ] } & {15} & {18}& {[ \ ] } & {[ \ ]} & {29} & {30} & {32} & {[ \ ]} & {58} & {[ \ ]} \\ \end{array}$

Required

Fill in the box

From the question, the range is:

$Range = 60$

Range is calculated as:

$Range = Highest - Least$

From the box, we have:

$Least = 1$

So:

$60 = Highest - 1$

$Highest = 60 +1$

$Highest = 61$

The box, becomes:

$\begin{array}{ccccccccccccccc}{1} & {[ \ ]} & {4} & {[ \ ] } & {15} & {18}& {[ \ ] } & {[ \ ]} & {29} & {30} & {32} & {[ \ ]} & {58} & {61} \\ \end{array}$

From the question:

$IQR = 20$ --- interquartile range

This is calculated as:

$IQR = Q_3 - Q_1$

$Q_3$ is the median of the upper half while $Q_1$ is the median of the lower half.

So, we need to split the given boxes into two equal halves (7 each)

Lower half:

$\begin{array}{ccccccc}{1} & {[ \ ]} & {4} & {[ \ ] } & {15} & {18}& {[ \ ] } \\ \end{array}$

Upper half

$\begin{array}{ccccccc}{[ \ ]} & {29} & {30} & {32} & {[ \ ]} & {58} & {61} \\ \end{array}$

The quartile is calculated by calculating the median for each of the above halves is calculated as:

$Median = \frac{N + 1}{2}th$

Where N = 7

So, we have:

$Median = \frac{7 + 1}{2}th = \frac{8}{2}th = 4th$

So,

$Q_3$ = 4th item of the upper halves

$Q_1$ = 4th item of the lower halves

From the upper halves

$\begin{array}{ccccccc}{[ \ ]} & {29} & {30} & {32} & {[ \ ]} & {58} & {61} \\ \end{array}$

We have:

$Q_3 = 32$

$Q_1$ can not be determined from the lower halves because the 4th item is missing.

So, we make use of:

$IQR = Q_3 - Q_1$

Where $Q_3 = 32$ and $IQR = 20$

So:

$20 = 32 - Q_1$

$Q_1 = 32 - 20$

$Q_1 = 12$

So, the lower half becomes:

Lower half:

$\begin{array}{ccccccc}{1} & {[ \ ]} & {4} & {12 } & {15} & {18}& {[ \ ] } \\ \end{array}$

From this, the updated values of the box is:

$\begin{array}{ccccccccccccccc}{1} & {[ \ ]} & {4} & {12} & {15} & {18}& {[ \ ] } & {[ \ ]} & {29} & {30} & {32} & {[ \ ]} & {58} & {61} \\ \end{array}$

From the question, the median is:

$Median = 22$ and $N = 14$

To calculate the median, we make use of:

$Median = \frac{N + 1}{2}th$

$Median = \frac{14 + 1}{2}th$

$Median = \frac{15}{2}th$

$Median = 7.5th$

This means that, the median is the average of the 7th and 8th items.

The 7th and 8th items are blanks.

However, from the question; the mode is:

$Mode = 18$

Since the values of the box are in increasing order and the average of 18 and 18 do not equal 22 (i.e. the median), then the 7th item is:

$7th = 18$

The 8th item is calculated as thus:

$Median = \frac{1}{2}(7th + 8th)$

$22= \frac{1}{2}(18 + 8th)$

Multiply through by 2

$44 = 18 + 8th$

$8th = 44 - 18$

$8th = 26$

The updated values of the box is:

$\begin{array}{ccccccccccccccc}{1} & {[ \ ]} & {4} & {12} & {15} & {18}& {18 } & {26} & {29} & {30} & {32} & {[ \ ]} & {58} & {61} \\ \end{array}$

From the question.

$Mean = 26$

Mean is calculated as:

$Mean = \frac{\sum x}{n}$

So, we have:

$26= \frac{1 + 2nd + 4 + 12 + 15 + 18 + 18 + 26 + 29 + 30 + 32 + 12th + 58 + 61}{14}$

Collect like terms

$26= \frac{ 2nd + 12th+1 + 4 + 12 + 15 + 18 + 18 + 26 + 29 + 30 + 32 + 58 + 61}{14}$

$26= \frac{ 2nd + 12th+304}{14}$

Multiply through by 14

$14 * 26= 2nd + 12th+304$

$364= 2nd + 12th+304$

This gives:

$2nd + 12th = 364 - 304$

$2nd + 12th = 60$

From the updated box,

$\begin{array}{ccccccccccccccc}{1} & {[ \ ]} & {4} & {12} & {15} & {18}& {18 } & {26} & {29} & {30} & {32} & {[ \ ]} & {58} & {61} \\ \end{array}$

We know that:

The 2nd value can only be either 2 or 3

The 12th value can take any of the range 33 to 57

Of these values, the only possible values of 2nd and 12th that give a sum of 60 are:

$2nd = 3$

$12th = 57$

i.e.

$2nd + 12th = 60$

$3 + 57 = 60$

So, the complete box is:

$\begin{array}{ccccccccccccccc}{1} & {3} & {4} & {12} & {15} & {18}& {18 } & {26} & {29} & {30} & {32} & {57} & {58} & {61} \\ \end{array}$

The distribution of salaries of professional basketball players is skewed to the right. Which measure of central tendency would

True [87]

Answer:

Median

mean>median

Step-by-step explanation:

When the data is skewed to right the suitable average is median. Median is suitable because it is less effected by extreme values and thus locate the center of the distribution perfectly. Here the salaries of basket players are skewed to right and the best measure of central tendency to measure the center of distribution is median.

When the frequency distribution is rightly skewed then the relationship of mean and median is that mean is greater than median that is Mean>median.

Hence when the distribution is skewed to right the best choice to measure the center of distribution is median and when the data is skewed to right mean is greater than median.
