Answer:

13.18651685

13.9

Explain:

890-238=652
652/890=0.7325842697 (Find out the percentage)

We know that 1 gram of Element X will be fully decayed in 18 minutes and half of it in 9 minutes.

0.7325842697x18=13.18651685

As you see 18/13.18651685 will equal to 18 (not exactly since it is rounded)

And of course we need to round it to nearest tenth. So the answer would be 13.9!

Determine which measure of center best represents the best data. Explain.​
Monica [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I always like to use the mean if I can. In this data set, it's probably not a very good idea. Too much weight is given to that 7.2 and the two 3.2s.

I would choose the median, because the mode is the same answer and that's a good enough reason for choosing anything. 2 out 3 isn't bad as they say in Baseball.
