To solve this problem, let us first define what is mean
and median. Mean is the average of all the numbers in the data set while
the median is the number in the middle of the data set in ascending order.
If we create a box plot for the data of Rome and New York,
we can see that there is an outlier in the data for New York. Since New York
has an outlier, so the mean is not a good representation on the central
tendency of the data. The mean is skewed (distorted) by the outlier. So in this
case it is better to use the median.<span>
While the Rome data is nice and symmetrical, it does not seem
to have an outlier, so we can use the mean for this data set.</span>
Therefore the answer is:
<span>The Rome data center is best described by the mean. The
New York data center is best described by the median</span>
Answer:
a) 0.05
b) 0.9826
c) 0.000039308
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 
b) For two minutes, the mean is doubled, hence it is 6. In order to calculate the probability of al least two calls arriving, we calculate first the probability of the complementary event: At most 1 call will arrive. For that probability, we need to sum the probabilities of 0 and 1.


Hence,

c) For five minutes the mean is 15. We need to sum the probabilities of 0, 1 and 2.


As a result,

Practically 0
Answer:
Quincy read 9 books.
Step-by-step explanation:
Work backwards. Samantha read three less books than Teresa (11-3=8). Ralph read half as many books as Samantha (8/2 = 4). Quincy read five more books than Ralph (4 + 5 = 9).
