In an anonymous survey 34 students reported the hours they studied for a statistics final exam. The histogram below shows the re

sults of the survey. histogram Which statement below is the most accurate description of the center of the distribution?
A. The median should be used to describe the center, because the values on the horizontal axis can be spit exactly in the middle.
B. The mean should be used to describe the center because it may produce a decimal value, which is more accurate than the median.
C. The mean should be used to describe the center because the data is roughly symmetric.
D. The median should be used to describe the center because, since the data is skewed, the middle outcome may more accurately describe a typical value in the distribution.

Triangles ΔABC ≅ ΔBAD so that C and D lie in the opposite semi-planes of segment AB. Prove that segment CD bisects segment AD.
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles ΔABC and ΔBAD are congruent. So,

  • AB ≅ BA;
  • AC ≅ BD;
  • BC ≅ AD;
  • ∠ABC ≅ ∠BAD;
  • ∠BCA ≅ ∠ADB;
  • ∠CAB ≅ ∠DBA.

Consider triangles AEC and BED. In these triangles,

  • AC ≅ BD;
  • ∠EAC ≅ ∠EBD (because ∠CBA ≅ ∠BAD);
  • ∠AEC ≅ ∠BED (as vertical angles).

So, ΔAEC ≅ ΔBED. Thus,

AE ≅ EB.

This means that segment CD bisects segment AD.

PI-3.
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

A. $301

B. $721

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x be the amount of money they raised.

Rowena tried to put the $1 bills into two equal piles and found one left over at the end, then

x=2q_1+1

Polly tried to put the $1 bills into three equal piles and found one left over at the end, then

x=3q_2+1

Frustrated, they tried 4, 5, and 6 equal piles and each time had $1 left over, then

x=4q_3+1\\ \\x=5q_4+1\\ \\x=6q_5+1

Finally Rowena put all the bills evenly into 7 equal piles, and none were left over, then

x=7q_6

This means x-1 is divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 without remainder, so

x-1=2\cdot 3\cdot 2\cdot 5n=60n

Hence,

x=60n+1, \ n\in N

The smallest amount of money they could have raised is $301, because

x=60\cdot 5+1=301 is divisible by 7.

Now, the number x=60n+1 should be divisible by 7 and must be greater than 500.

So,

60n+1>500\\ \\60n>499\\ \\n>8

When n = 9,

x=60\cdot 9+1=541 is not divisible by 7.

When n = 10,

x=60\cdot 10+1=601 is not divisible by 7.

When n = 11,

x=60\cdot 11+1=661 is not divisible by 7.

When n = 12,

x=60\cdot 12+1=721 is divisible by 7.

B. The least amount of money they could have raised is $721

.The conversion of square feet to square yards can be represented by direct variation. Three square yards are equivalent to 27 s
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

The constant of variation is 1/9

The equation representing the direct variation is y/x= 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

In direct variation, y/x=k denotes the equation, with k being the constant of variation. Here, y is the number of square yards and x is the number of square feet. Therefore, as we know that 27 square feet = 3 square yards, we can write one point (x₁, y₁) as (27 square feet, 3 square yards). Plugging x₁ and y₁ into our equation, we get

y/x = k

3 / 27 = k

(3/27) / (3/3) = 1/9* = k

Therefore, the constant of variation is 1/9

Next, as stated previously, y/x = k represents the equation of direct variation. Therefore, y / x = 1/9 as our equation

* because 3 is a factor of both 3 and 27, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by 3 to keep the fraction the same but also simplify it. One way to find the greatest common factor is to list the factors of each number and see the highest number that is a factor of both
