Find five numbers so that the mean, median, mode and range is 4.​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nuetrik [128]2 years ago

Answer:

Let’s break this apart

Well we know the median has to be 4

Since it’s 5 numbers the middle number has to be 4 since its the median.

Let’s put in what we know.

a, b, 4, d, e

Constraints:

There has to be more then 1 “4”.

e-a = 4

So using that information lets solve since the possibility is almost endless

<u></u>

SO lets make e 5 and a 1.

1, b, 4, d, 5

There has to be more then 1 4 so lets put that as b.

We can solve for the last remaining digits.

1+ 4 + 4 + d + 5 / 5 = 4

14 + d /5 = 4

2.2 + d = 4

1.8 = d

So now if we put in order and replace b with 1.8 and make d as the previous “b” as 4.

1, 1.8, 4, 4, 5

Thats your 5 numbers right there.

Check:

Mode is 4: yes!

Range is 4: 5-1 = 4 yes!

Median is 4: yes!

Mean is 4: 1 + 1.8 + 4 + 4 +5 / 5 = 4 yes!

Every thing checks out.

There could be a lot of possibilities.

For example take this wrong one

Lets make the same exact thing except change the a and the e.

THis is what we have,

a, b, 4, d, e

Lets make e and a as 6 and 2.  6-2 is still 4 so its possible.

2, b, 4, d, 6

And of course we need more then 1 4 so lets make d 4.

2, b, 4, 4, 6

Now solve for b in the mean.

2 + b + 4 + 4 + 6  / 5 = 4

16 +b /5 = 4

3.2 + b = 4

Solve

B = 0.8

This doesn’t work cause the median and the range has constraint here…

When doing a median, it has to be in ORDER.

2, 0.8, 4, 4 , 6 isn’t in order

ANd even when put in order.

0.8, 2, 4, 4, 6

THe range has the constraint here becuase 6 - 0.8 isn’t 4.

Jack looks at a clock tower from a distance and determines that the angle of elevation of the top of the tower is 40°. John, who
zmey [24]

Answer:

18.7939 m

Step-by-step explanation:

-Let x be the distance between John and clock tower.

-Let y be the vertical distance from the eyes of the two men  standing to the top of the clock tower.

#Taking the right triangle ACD:

\Tan \ theta=\frac{Perpendicular \ Height}{Base}\\\\Tan \ 60\textdegree=\frac{y+1.5}{x}\\\\y=x \ Tan \ 60\textdegree -1.5

#Taking the right triangle ABD:

\Tan \ theta=\frac{Perpendicular \ Height}{Base}\\\\Tan \ 40\textdegree=\frac{y+1.5}{x+20}\\\\y=(x+20)\ Tan \ 40\textdegree -1.5

#We equate the two yo solve for x and y;

(x+20)\ Tan \ 40\textdegree -1.5=x\ Tan \ 60\textdegree -1.5\\\\(x+20)\ Tan \ 40\textdegree=x\ Tan \ 60\textdegree\\\\0.8391x+16.7820=1.7321x\\\\x=18.7939

Hence, John's distance from the tower's base is 18.7939 m

You use 4 gallons of water on 30 plants. At that rate how much water will you need for 45 plants?
Alja [10]
You would use 6 gallons of water to water 45 plants 
4=30  
\frac{45}{30}=\frac{3}{2}
\frac{3}{2}of 4 gallons = 6 gallons
