Answer:

i think the answer is -> "the mean can be less than the minimum data value."

Step-by-step explanation:

mean means the average and by finding the average you need to add up all your set values then divide it, so with that being said the mean will always need to be higher than the lowest data set of value.

the numbers of girls in the choir is 4 times the number of boys in the choir .the total number of students is 60..how many girls

Inessa05 [86]

First, make up some variables to represent the number of Girls and Boys in the choir.

B = number of boys
G = number of girls

You know that there are 4 times as many girls in the choir as boys. Therefore, the equation you can write is:
$\frac{B}{G} = \frac{1}{4}$

If you cross-multiply, then you get the simplified equation:
G = 4B

Intuitively this makes sense since if you multiplied the number of boys in the class by 4, that would be equal to the number of girls you have.

Now, we know that the total class size is 60. So girls plus boys equals 60:
G+B = 60

To solve the equation, replace the G in this equation with the replacement you found before, 4B.
G + B = 60 -->
4B + B = 60 -->
5B = 60 -->
B = 12

However, you are trying to find the number of girls, so plug the answer back into your equation.
G + B = 60 -->
G + 12 = 60 -->
G + 12 -12 = 60 - 12 -->
G = 48

The number of girls you have is 48.

Please give me the correct answer

Furkat [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 over 10x10x10 is basically, 10 to the power of 3. 10x10 is 100, and 100x10 is 1000. An easy way to do this. Since we have 3 tens, we start with 10, then add a 0, then add another 0. Gives you 1000.

ella [17]

Answer:

$7.99

Step-by-step explanation:

Arrange numbers in numerical order: $0, $1.99, $4.30, $6.45, $7.99, $7.99, $10.35, $16, $18.20, $18.95, $21.38.

Count how many numbers you have, 11.

11 is an odd number so, the number in the middle of the data set is the median.

Final answer: $7.99 is the median.
