Below are summary statistics for the sizes (in acres) of some local vineyards. Using the summary statistics, complete parts (a)

through (c) below.
Variable N Mean StDev Minimum Q1 Median Q3 Maximum
Acres 36 48.50 47.42 6 17.97 33.00 57.86 250
From the summary statistics, would you describe this distribution as symmetric or skewed? Explain. Choose the correct answer below.

(A This distribution is symmetric because the mean and median are reasonably close to one another and the quartiles are approximately the same distance from the mean.
(B) This distribution is skewed because the mean and median are not reasonably close to one another.
(C) This distribution is symmetric because the mean and median are reasonably close to one another and the extreme values are approximately the same distance from the median.

Answer:

option B

Step-by-step explanation:

The symmetric distribution have close or approximate values of median and mean. In the given scenario mean is 48.5 and median is 33. We can see that the both values significantly differs. Also, given mean is greater than median(48.5>33) . Thus, the distribution is positively skewed and not symmetrical.

Hence, the distribution is skewed because mean and median significantly differ from each other.

One tray of granola bars cut into 4 equal size pieces. A second tray was cut into 12 equal size pieces, and a third was cut into
Ymorist [56]
\bf \stackrel{\textit{4 pieces}}{4}\qquad \stackrel{\textit{12 pieces}}{12}\qquad \stackrel{\textit{8 pieces}}{8}\qquad \impliedby\textit{the LCD will be 24}

4 is really 2 * 2

12 is reallly 2 * 2 * 3

8 is really 2 * 2 * 2

now, the 2 * 2, is repeated in the factoring, so we use it once only.  We still have to account for the extra 2 and 3.

therefore, the LCD will be 2 * 2 * 2 * 3, or 24.

after all the slicing in each tray, all pieces will be equal in length in each tray, and there'll be 24 of them in each tray.

The necklace charm shown has two parts, each shaped like a trapezoid with identical dimensions. What is the total area, in squar
pashok25 [27]
The area of the trapezoid can be calculated through the equation, 
                               A = (b₁ + b₂)h / 2
where b₁ and b₂ are the bases and h is the height. Substituting the known values from the given, 
                              A = (25mm + 32mm)(15 mm) / 2 
                               A = 427.5 mm²
Since there are two trapezoids in the necklace, the area calculated is to be multiplied by two to get the total area. 
                        total area = (427.5 mm²)(2) 
                        <em>total area = 855 mm²</em>

geniusboy [140]

Answer: C. He used too few trials for the sample space.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Josh used a standard deck of 52 cards to conduct an experiment.

As half of the cards in the deck were red.

If we take sample space= 52 cards

Then probability of getting a red card=\frac{1}{2}

But Josh took 8 cards as sample space which is not enough for the sample space.

therefore, C. is the right answer. "He used too few trials for the sample space."
