The mean, median number and the the outlier of the number of letters in the box is 5, 4.5 and no outlier respectively.

The complete question:

A box contains the numbers 9, 2, 2, 11, 1, 8, 8, 2, 6, 1, 7, 3.

<h3>How to find mean, median and outlier</h3>

  • Mean = Addition of all numbers ÷ number of digits

= (9 + 2 + 2 + 11 + 1 + 8 + 8 + 2 + 6 + 1 + 7 + 3) ÷ 12

= 60 ÷ 12

= 5

  • Median = The middle value arranged in ascending or descending order.

In ascending order; 1,1,2,2,2,3,6,7,8,8,9,11

  • There are two middle number; 6 and 3

Median = (6 + 3) / 2

= 9/2

= 4.5

  • There is no outlier

What is the inverse of f(x)= √3x+4 -1? (The -1 is separate and not part of the square root) √3x+4
icang [17]

Answer:

y=(x^2 -2x-3)/3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= √3x+4 -1

x=√3y+4 -1

(x+1)^2=(√3y+4)^2

3y+4=x^2 +2x+1

3y=x^2 +2x-3

y=(x^2 +2x-3)/3

The gravitational force produced between any two objects kept 2.5×10^4 km apart is 580 N . At what distance should they be kept
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Formula for gravitational force    F = G M1 * M2 / R^2  where G is the gravitational constant

F2 / F1 = (R1 / R2)^2 = 1/2         where F2 is the required force

R2 = (2)^1/2  R1     distance for R2 to be 1/2 force at R1

Since force is proportional to the square of the distance of separation, increasing the distance of separation by 2^2 will halve the force

“The perimeter P of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of sides a,b, and c”
Kryger [21]

Answer:

1. Write the addition of "a", "b" and "c".

2. The equation is: P=a+b+c

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that <em>P</em> represents the perimeter of the triangle and <em>a, b </em>and <em>c </em>represent the sides of the triangle.

By definition, the sum is the result of an addition. Therefore, the statement "The perimeter <em>P</em> of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of sides <em>a, b</em>, and <em>c</em>”, indicates that the perimeter is obtained by adding the lengths of the sides of the triangle.

Knowing this, you can write the following equation:

P=a+b+c

After plotting all the three points, we get the parabolic equation in the form is 2(x - 1)²-34.

<h3>What is parabola?</h3>

Any point on a parabola, which has the shape of a U, is situated at an equal distance from the focus, a fixed point, and the directrix, a fixed line.

General equation of the quadratic equation,

Y = ax² + bx +c

Given points,

(-2, 0),

(-1, -10),

(4, 0).

Putting the points in the general equation,

Putting (-2, 0), we get

0 = 4a - 2b + c

Putting (-1, -10), we get

-10 = a - b +c

Putting (4, 0), we get

0 = 16a + 4b +c

Solving all equations we get,

a = 2 , b = -4 , c = -16

After putting the values,

Y = 2x²- 4x- 16

2(x² - 2x - 8)

2(x²- 2x + 1 - 1 - 16)

=2(x - 1)²-34

Hence we get the required equation in the parabolic form.
