Explain what median is and how to solve for it

Answers

Answer 1
The median is the middle value in the list of numbers. to find the median list your numbers from smallest to largest and find the middle!
Answer 2

Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Median is the value that separates the higher data and lower data. In simple terms, it is the "middle" value of the whole set of data. There are two different ways to solve for the median.

1. If the data set has an odd number of values, line the values up in increasing order. Then the value or number that lies in the middle will be the median.

For example, if we are given a data set {1, 3, 4, 2, 5}. First, we line them up by increasing order, which becomes {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}. Since it is an odd number set, we can directly get the median which is 3.

2. If the data set has an even number of values, line the values up in increasing order. Then there will be two number that lies in the "middle" together. We add them up and divide them by 2. The average of the two numbers will be the median of the set.

For example, if we are given a data set {2, 6, 4, 10, 8, 12}. First, we line them up by increasing order, which becomes {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12}. Since it is an even number set, we get our median from the two numbers in the middle, which are {6, 8}. We add them together to get 14 and then divide by 2 which is 7. So the median will be 7.

Hope this helps!! :)

Use slope formula:

(1 - h)/(10 - 3) = 4/7(1 - h) / 7 = 4/71 - h = 4h = 1 - 4h = -3

Answer:

The answer is  h = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

(1 - h)/(10 - 3) = 4/7

(1 - h) / 7 = 4/7

Airlines monitor the causes of flights arriving late. A total of 75% of flights are late because of weather, while 35% of flights are late because of ground operations. A full 10% of flights are late because of weather and ground operations. What is the joint probability that a flight arrives late because of weather and ground operations

Answers

Answer:

36% is the  joint probability that a flight arrives late because of weather and ground operations

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

% of flight late because of weather = 0.75

% of flight late because of ground operation = 0.35

% of flight late because of both weather and ground operation = 0.10

The probability of joint probability that a flight arrives late because of weather and ground operations is equal to

p (A and B) + {P(A) * P(B)}

0.10 + (0.75 * 0.35)

0.36

or 36%

Answer:36%

Step-by-step explanation:0.10 + (0.75 * 0.35)=0.36 then turn it to a percent which is 36%.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem says:

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

where a and b are the two legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse.  Here, let's say a = 6 and b = [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex]. We then get the following equation:

[tex]c^2= (6)^2+(\sqrt{13})^2=49[/tex]

So c = 7. Technically, c can also equal -7 since (-7)^2 = 49 as well but that does not apply here because a side length cannot be <0. So 7 is the answer.

Beth wants to buy Christmas lights to decorate her new home. At various stores, Beth found lights priced from $6.99 a strand to $25.99 a strand. Beth bought almost $200 worth of the cheapest lights so that she could have as many lights on her house as possible. For Beth, Christmas lights are a(n) _____.

Answers

Answer:

Christmas lights are price based shopping products

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we understand that, Beth bought as many cheapest lights as possible. This means that she places value over quantity than quality.

The above is an illustration of price based shopping products where customers (in this case, Beth) see all products (in this case, Christmas lights) as similar products, irrespective of their different qualities (after all, they all light Christmas trees).

Because of this, the customer will opt for least expensive items, leaving the more expensive items.

Distance between Train 1 and Train 2 = 95 miles.

If both trains leave at the same time and travel toward each other but on parallel tracks, in how much time will their engines be opposite each other? (Hint: When the engines are opposite each other, together the trains will have traveled 95 miles. Their relative speed of travel is the sum of their respective speeds, or 105 mph.)

Possible answers


Side angle side (SAS)

Angel side angle (ASA)

Hypotenuse leg (HL)

Not possible

Answers

Answer:

1 : Hypotenuse leg (HL)

2: Angle side angle (ASA)

3: Side angle side (SAS)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for triangles

Required

Determine the congruence postulate

Figure (1):

From the attachment;

[tex]AC = BD[/tex] --- The hypotenuse

[tex]CB = CB[/tex] --- One other leg

Since the hypotenuse and one other leg of both triangles are congruent, then the postulate is: HL

Figure (2):

From the attachment, we have:

[tex]150^\circ = 150^\circ[/tex] --- Angle

[tex]15^\circ = 15^\circ[/tex] ---- Angle

The horizontal line that divides both triangles show that they have a congruent side.

Hence, the postulate is: ASA

Figure (3):

From the attachment, we have:

A pair of single marks (Side)

A pair of double marks (Side)

A pair of equal angles

Hence, the postulate is: SAS

As you can see, ABCD is similar to FECG which means its just a bigger or smaller version of the other. The sides change by a specific amount like times 2 or divided by 2

In this case abcd is 2x bigger thab fecg. You can see this by the side BC being 10 and it is the same side on the other shape being 5 so you know FECG is just ABCD x 1/2

Because of this since we know what FG is (4) on FECG we know y is 2x that side so it is 8.
