I don't know the effect, but I can tell you the outlier, mean, and the median.
Outlier: 60
Mean: 87.8
Median: 60

Solution:

we are given that

Dukes science quiz scores are 99,91,60,94,and 95 .

we have been asked to describe the effect of the outlier on the mean and median.

Mean of the given data=\frac{99+91+60+94+95}{5} \\

Mean of the given data=\frac{439}{5}=87.8 \\

Median of the given data after arranging in the ascending order 60,91,94,95,99 is 94.

The outlier is 60.

The outlier is decreasing the value of Mean by 87.8-60=27.8\\

The outlier is decreasing the value of Median by 94-60=34\\

Talia is packing a moving box. She has a square-framed poster with an area of 4 square feet. The cube-shaped box has a volume of
yan [13]

Answer:

Length of sides of poster = 2 Ft

Length of sides of box = 2.41 Ft

Since the box has a longer side than the poster, the poster will lie flat when placed in the box.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine if the poster will lie flat in the box or not, we will determine the length of the sides of the poster and the box, if the length of the side of the square poster is smaller than that of the box, it will lie flat. This is calculated as follows:

Area of poster = 4 square feet

Area of poster =  (Length)²

4 = (Length)²

∴ Length = √(4)

Length of poster = 2 Ft

Volume of box = 14 cubic feet

Volume of box = (Length)³

14 = (Length)³

∴ Length = ∛(14)

Length = 2.41 Ft

∴ Length of sides of poster = 2 Ft

Length of sides of box = 2.41 Ft

Since the box has a longer side than the poster, the poster will lie flat when placed in the box.

∠ABC and ∠DBC are complementary angles. If m∠ABC=6x+13 and m∠DBC=4x−3 what is the value of x?
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles are equal to 90 degrees.

angle ABC + angle DBC = 90

6x+13+4x-3=90

Combine like terms

6x+4x+13-3=90

10x+10=90

get x alone by subtracting 10 on both sides

10x=80

divide 10 on both sides

x=8

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: The answer is G

Step-by-step explanation:

If you don't see the stars, then the sky is not clear. This statement is equivalent to saying "If the sky is not clear, then you don't see the stars", because if you rearrange both statements you will find out that they are equivalent to each other.

Mark out all the words in each statement, you will discover that at the end you will have no word left on both side, its just as good as saying 1 - 1 = 0.

For a continuous random variable x, the probability density function f(x) represents
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The graph of a continuous probability distribution is a curve. Probability is represented by area under the curve.

The curve is called the probability density function (abbreviated as pdf).

We use the symbol f(x) to represent the curve

therefore

The probability density function f(x) represents . the height of the function at  x.

In two or more complete sentences explain how you would set up and solve the following equation: Peter opened his account with $
Black_prince [1.1K]
Peter will have $910 - $40 * x on his account, where x is the number of the weeks. Marla will have $470 - $20 * x.
910 - 40 x = 470 - 20 x
910 - 470 = 40 x - 20 x
440 = 20 x
x = 440 : 20
x = 22
910 - 40 * 22 = 910 - 880 = $30
470 - 20 * 22 = 470 - 440 = $30
Answer: Their accounts will be equal in 22 weeks ( both of them will have $30 ).
