According to the data set with median 18.5 It is impossible to determine the missing value.

Median:

Median is centre number of a ascending or descending list of numbers.

Firstly, let's arrange the numbers in ascending list.

Therefore,

15, 17, 13, 19, 20, 33, 22, 12, 18, and x

<h3 /><h3>Sorted number:</h3>

12, 13, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20, 22, 33 and x.

The amount of number is an even number. Therefore, the middle number is two. This means we add them and divide by 2.

Now, we don't know the value of the last number. But we were given the median as 18.5. Therefore, let's test it

18.5 = 18 + 19 / 2

37 / 2 = 18.5

It is impossible to determine the missing value.

It is NOT possible to determine the missing value from the given data.

<h3>Mean and Median</h3>

Mean is the average of a number of data while the median is the number at the middle of the given data.

For a given data with a missing value, we can only find the missing value by calculating the mean of the data and equating the given mean.

Hence from the given data, it is NOT possible to determine the missing value from the given data.

What is the quotient 2y^-6y-20/4y+12 ÷ y+5y+6/3y^2+28y+27

malfutka [58]

Answer with explanation:

$\rightarrow \frac{\frac{2y^2-6 y-20}{4 y+12}}{\frac{y^2+5 y+6}{3 y^2+28 y+27}}\\\\\rightarrow \frac{\frac{y^2-3y-10}{2 y+6}}{\frac{(y+2)(y+3)}{3 y^2+28 y+27}}\\\\\rightarrow \frac{\frac{(y-5)(y+2)}{2 (y+3)}}{\frac{(y+2)(y+3)}{3 y^2+28 y+27}}\\\\\rightarrow \frac{(y-5)(y+2)}{2 (y+3)}} \times {\frac{3 y^2+28 y+27}{(y+2)(y+3)}}\\\\ \rightarrow\frac{(y-5)\times(3 y^2+28 y+27)}{2 (y+3)^2}}$

→y²+5y+6

=y²+3 y+2 y+6

=y×(y+3)+2×(y+3)

=(y+2)(y+3)

→y² -3 y-10

=y² -5 y+2 y -10

=y×(y-5)+2×(y-5)

=(y+2)(y-5)

A band consists of 3 woodwinds for every 7 members of the band. The independent quantity represents the total members of the ban

IgorC [24]

Answer: $k=\frac{3}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise it is important to remember the following:

The constant of proportionality, which is represented as "k", describe the constant ratio of two quantities that are proportional (the independent and dependent variables).

In this case we know that the independent quantity represents the total members of the band and the dependent quantity represents the woodwind members of the band.

Since the band consists of 3 woodwinds for every 7 members of the band, we can conclude that the constant of proportionality for this relationship is:

$k=\frac{3}{7}$
