the number of minutes spent studing are 60 70 45 60 80 35 45 find the measure of center that best represents the data justify your selection and then find the measure of center

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The measure of center is mean. You would be finding the average number of minutes spent studying.
To find the mean of the data you would add all of the numbers up and divide by the total amount of numbers you added.
60+70+45+60+80+35+45
=395
395/7
=56.4285714286
Answer 2
Answer: There are three measures of center: mean, median, and mode.

The median would be the number in the middle when the numbers are ordered.
35 45 45 60 60 70 80

The mode would be the number that occurss most frequently.
Since 45 and 60 both appear twice, you take the mean of the two, which is 52.5

The mean would be the sum of all the numbers divided by the amount of numbers.
60+70+45+60+80+35+45 = 395/7 ≈ 56.43

You could really justify any of these, but typically you would use the mean in this case because there are no outliers.

1.) 6% of 38 1% of 38 = 3.8 ( you just move the decimal placement over by one. 1% * 6 = 6% 3.8 * 6 = 6% 3.8 * 6 = 22.8 6% =22.8 2.) 5% of 90 90/5 = 5% 90/5 = 18 18 = 5% 3.) 15/5 = 9/x 15/5 = 3 3 = 9/x (nine divided by ? is three?....3!) 3 = 9/x(3) 3 = 9/3 3 = 3 x = 3 4.) 1/12 = .8/x Multiply each side by ten. 1/12 * 10 = 5/6 .8/x * 10 = 8/x 5/6 = 8/x Cross Multiply (switch the second numbers around) 5x = 6*8 Simplify 5x = 48 Divide both sides by 5 to get x by itself 5x/5 = x 48/5 = 9.6 *Whoo last problem lol* 5.) A three liter bottle costs $2.97 what is the unit rate. Well the unit is the object we're talking about, in this case a liter bottle. The unit rate is how much it costs or is per unit. Now that that's out of the way... 3L = 2.97 Like the other problems we want to get x by itself, so we'll divide by three) 3L/3 = L 2.97/3 = .99 L = .99 The Unit Rate is $0.99 per liter bottle. Hope this helped :)

Y= F(x)=(-2) find f(x) when x is -3

Answers

f(x)= -2 means that with any value of x, f(x) will be the same and equal -2.
So, f(-3)=-2.

And also, f(-1)=f(4)= -2, and so on.

I really need help!!! It would mean a lot if someone could help me.

Answers

The y answers would be 11, 8, 5, 2, -1.

To find these parts of the table, we simply put the x value in for x and solve for y. The first two are done for you below.

WHEN x = -2

y = -3x + 5

y = -3(-2) + 5

y = 6 + 5

y = 11

WHEN x = -1

y = -3x + 5

y = -3(-1) + 5

y = 3 + 5

y = 8

-3(-2) +5=11

-3(-1) +5=8

-3(0) +5=5

-3(1) +5=2

-3(2) +5=-1

Goodluck on your assignment...

Answer:

X = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross Multiplication

We can go about this 1 of 2 ways we can either cross multiply or divide across the numerators and denominators. Let's cross multiply. We would 4*9 = 6x. Which would simplify down to 36 = 6x. We would then divide the 6 on each sides of the equation to get 6 = X.

Dividing Across

The other way we can go about it is by seeing what 4 had to be multiplied by to get to 6. We do this by dividing 6 by for which gets us 3/2 or 1.5. Now that we know this we would then divide 9 by 3/2 or 1.5 to get the answer of 6.
