The amount of money that high school students spend on fast food each month is usually between $50 and $200. However, there are

a few students who do not eat fast food at all. What measure of spread would be most appropriate to measure the amount of money that high school students spend on fast food per month?

Answer:

B) Interquartile range

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are some students that do not eat fast food at all, their amounts spent monthly would be $0.  These are much different than the rest of the data, and thus are outliers.

Outliers can greatly affect the mean.  This tells us the mean may not be the best measure.

Since the mean is affected by outliers, the standard deviation is not the best measure either.

Adding data points of 0 will also affect the range.  This leaves the interquartile range as the better measure.

Select the two statements that are true about the equation y−56=4(x+5)y-56=4(x+5).
Sergio [31]

The correct answers are:

The slope of the line is 4.

A point on the line is (−5, 56)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is:

y-56=4(x+5)

The slope-intercept form is:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Comparing both equations we get

m = 4

y-56=y-y_1\\y_1 = 56\\x+5 = x-x_1\\x_1=-5

The point is (-5,56)

So, the correct answers are:

The slope of the line is 4.

A point on the line is (−5, 56)

Imagine that you have plotted many data points on an xy-plane. Your points seem to align into a clear best-fit line. Do you thin
sattari [20]

It depends really. If you stay close to the present, then predicting future results isn't too bad. The further you go out, the more unpredictable things get. This is because the points may deviate from the line of best fit (aka regression line) as time wears on. Of course, it also depends on what kind of data we're working with. Some pairs of variables are naturally going to correlate very strongly together. An example would be temperature versus ice cream sales.

I am Lyosha [343]
The medium sized orange would have 62 calories. To divide by 1/5, which in decimal form is 0.2, you just multiply 310 by 0.2, therefore, giving you 62. Hope this helps!
