The mean of 20 observations is 12.5. By error, one observation was noted as (-15) instead of 15. Then the correct mean is ___?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct mean is -12.5.

Step by step explanation:

If one of the 20 observations is a negative number, then the mean would be negative. This is because, when a negative number is in contact with (meaning added, subtracted, multiplied by) a positive number, the whole answer is negative, because it's opposite signs.

Hope this helps! :D

1

slope intercept form that represents the new line.

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

y=x-2

We know that Reflecting over the x-axis inverts the sign of the y-coordinate.

Thus, after reflecting over the x-axis, the equation would be:

-y = x - 2

Now, writing the equation in the slope-intercept form

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

so the equation in the slope-intercept form

-y = x - 2

y = -x + 2

Here,

The slope = m = -1The y-intercept = b = 2

Test Number of Words Time(minutes)

A. 30. 4

B. 78. 15

C. 99. 22

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate Zane's unit rate/number of words per minute for which each test, we divide number of words in each test by time taken for that test

For test A, unit rate = 30 words/ 4 minutes = 7.5 words per minute

For test B, unit rate = 78 words/15 minutes = 5.2 words per minute

For test C, unit rate = 99 words/22 minutes= 4.5 words per minute

From the above Zane has the highest unit rate in test A and is therefore fastest in test A

Step-by-step explanation:

If a term doesn't have a coefficient , it is considered that the coefficient is 1

[tex]2x+1x-4y[/tex]

Why is it considered that the coefficient is 1?

Remember that any term multiplied by 1 remains the same:

[tex]1.x=x[/tex]

Step 1

The equality can be read in the other way as well , so any term can be written as a product of 1 and itself:

[tex]x=1 . X \\[/tex]

Step 2

Usually, we don't need to write multiplication sign between the coefficient and the variable , so the simpler form is:

[tex]x=1x[/tex]

That is why we can write the term without the coefficient as a term with coefficient 1.

Which are correct representations of the inequality 6x2 3 + 4(2x - 1)? Select three options.


Answers

Answer:

Option A, B, and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, 6x ≥ 3 + 4(2x - 1),

Solve to find the correct representations given in the options.

6x ≥ 3 + 4(2x - 1)

Apply distributive property

6x ≥ 3 + 8x - 4 (option B is correct) ✅

Add like terms

6x ≥ -1 + 8x

Add 1 to both sides

6x + 1 ≥ 8x

Subtract 6x from each side

1 ≥ 8x - 6x

1 ≥ 2x (option A is correct) ✅

Divide both sides by 2

1/2 ≥ 2x/2

½ ≥ x

½ ≥ x means all possible values of x are less than 0.5. representing this inequality on a graph, we would have the directed line starting at 0.5 moving towards our left.

This make option C correct.✅

The value is approximate.

==========================================================

Explanation:

Focus on the upper triangle.

Label the unknown horizontal side as y

Use the pythagorean theorem to solve for y

a^2+b^2 = c^2

10^2 + y^2 = 26^2

100+y^2 = 676

y^2 = 676-100

y^2 = 576

y = sqrt(576)

y = 24

-----------

Now move to the bottom triangle

With respect to the reference angle, the side y = 24 is opposite this. The hypotenuse is unknown.

Use the sine rule to connect the two and solve for x

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(32) = y/x

sin(32) = 24/x

x*sin(32) = 24

x = 24/sin(32)

x = 45.2899179551967 which is approximate

x = 45 rounding to the nearest whole number

Side x is approximately 45 cm long.

Note: make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

1. The measure of the largest angle of a triangle is 12 degrees less than the sum of the measures of the other two. The smallest angle measures 58 degrees less than the largest. Find the measures of the angles.
