Range and y intercept are two characteristics they have in common
y= mx+b
(16, -7) = (x,y)
2(16) - 3y = 12
32 - 3y = 12
32 - 12 = 3y
20/3 = y
6.6 = y
2x-3(-7) = 12
2x+21 = 12
2x = 12 - 21
x = -9/2
Insert the values into y = mx + b
solve for m and then solve for b
The median, because the data is not symmetric and there are outliers is the data is not symmetric and there are outliers.
The median of the data set is 8 cakes, while the average is 7.5.
However, 21 of the 31 chefs, or roughly 2/3, made 8 or more cakes. This makes the median a better center for this data, since the data is clearly skewed. The four chefs that made 1 cake each brings the average down, skewing the mean and making the median a better representation of the data.
Where’s the problem where it explains what’s she is subtracting?
