Answer: Annabelle is using the a measure of central tendency defined as the Mode.
Step-by-step explanation: A measure of central tendency in its simplest definition is a single value or measure that can safely be used to represent all members belonging to an entire set of given data. Hence, as a good illustration, one figure can be used to confidently represent all other ninety nine figures where a set of one hundred figures were given.
The mean, median and mode are commonly accepted measures of central tendency.
The mode is the most frequently occurring value in a given set of data. As such, the modal value is statistically acceptable as a representative of the entire set of values or data.
If Annabelle measures the sides of 15 right triangles and based on her observations, she concludes that for any right triangle the sum of the squares of the two legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse, what she has done is taking the most frequently occurring value, and in her experiment, the most frequent of all observed data satisfies the Pythagorean Theorem.
That is why Annabelle can confidently make her assumption.
We have an arithmetic progression:
Nth=an
an=a₁+(n-1)d
a₁ is the first term.
n=number of terms.
d=common difference
10,17,24,31...
a₁=10
d=a₂-a₁=17-10=7
Therefore:
Nth=an
an=a₁+(n-1)d
an=10+(n-1)7
an=10+7n-7
an=7n+3.
Therefore: the formula for the nth is, an=a+(n-1), in this case; an=7n+3,
To check:
a₁=7*1+3=10
a₂=7*2+3=17
a₃=7*3+3=24
a₄=7*4+3=31
a₅=7*5+3=38.......
Depending on what calculator you have, this should be pretty simple, divide the World lottery by her annual salary to determine how many times as large it is.
The answer is approximately 209,742.53 times as large.
Answer:
24 / x = 14 - 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Quotient means division (÷ or /)
Quotient of 24 and x = 24 ÷ x
24 ÷ x is equivalent to 24 / x
14 minus 2 times x = 14 - 2x
So, the equation is
24 / x = 14 - 2x
The best answer for this question is A.
Best of luck.
