Explanation:
The given stem and leaf plot leads to this data set
68,68,69,69
71,72,77,77,78,78
80,81
I broke it up to have each tens digit get its own row. That way it's bit more readable.
Unfortunately, the term "average" in math is very vague. It could mean one of the following
meanmedianmodeTo get the mean (specifically the arithmetic mean), we will add up the values and then divide by n = 12 because there are 12 values in the list above. Adding said values gets us
68+68+69+69+71+72+77+77+78+78+80+81 = 888
Dividing that over 12 then leads to 888/12 = 74
The arithmetic mean is 74.
-------------
To get the median, we would first sort the data set. Though that is already done for us. From here, we locate the middle-most item.
Since there are n = 12 items here, the middle item is between slot n/2 = 12/2 = 6 and slot 7
The values in slots 6 and 7 are 72 and 77 respectively. The midpoint of those values is (72+77)/2 = 149/2 = 74.5
The median is 74.5
-------------
The mode is possibly the quickest measure of center or average we can compute. We simply look at the value that shows up the most. In this case, the following values show up twice (which is the most frequent of all the values)
68697778They are all tied for the title of "mode". It's possible to have more than one mode, so we say the mode is the set {68,69,77,78}.
Due to the nature of multiple modes, the mode is often not a good measure of center (but it's still a possibility; especially for categorical data).
In this case, I think the mean or median is a better measure of center.
Since there aren't any outliers, the mean is the best measure of center in this case. Luckily, the mean and median (74 and 74.5 respectively) are fairly close to one another.
-------------
To summarize everything, the term "average" is too vague and it could refer to the mean, median or mode. In this problem, the mean is possibly the best measure of center since there aren't any outliers and the mode isn't one single value.
We found the following:
mean = 74median = 74.5mode = {68,69,77,78}It's very likely your teacher is wanting the mean.

Describe how the graph of y = |x - 2| - 5 is a transformation of the graph of y = |x|. Use terms such as "shifted", "reflected", "stretched", or "compressed".
Answers
Answer:
The original graph was shifted 2 units to the left and 5 units down.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = |x|
From this, we go to: y = |x - 2|.
When we want to shift a function f(x) a units to the left, we find f(x - a). So first, the graph was shifted 2 units to the left.
y = |x - 2|.
From this, we go to: y = |x - 2| - 5.
Shifting a function f(x) down b units is the same as finding f(x) - b, so the second transformation was shifting the graph 5 units down.
37. Two numbers are such that their
difference, their sum and their
product are in the ratio 1:7: 24.
Find the product of the
number.
Answers
Answer:
8 and 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Two numbers are such that their difference, their sum, and their product are to
each other as 1:7:24. Their product must equal what number?
:
Two numbers a & b
Let x = the multiplier
:
a - b = 1x
a + b = 7x
a * b = 24x
:
Add the 1st two equations
a - b = x
a + b = 7x
2a = 8x
a = 4x
or
x = .25a
:
a * b = 24x
Replace 24x; a = 4x therefore:
a * b = 6a
b = 6
;
Using the 1st equation
a - b = 1x
Replace b with 6 and x with .25a
a - 6 = .25a
a - .25a = 6
.75a = 6
a =
a = 8
:
Find the multiplier
a - b = x
8 - 6 = 2
:
Check this
a - b = 2 (1*2)
a + b = 14; (7*2)
a * b = 48: (24*2)
:
The numbers are 8 and 6; their products = 48

This means the number 426 is divisible by 6. So are 456 and 486
===============================================================
Explanation:
A number is divisible by 6 if both of the following are true
The number is divisible by 2The number is divisible by 3This is simply because 6 = 2*3. So if 6 is a factor of a number, then 2 and 3 must be factors.
To have 2 be a factor, the units digit must be in the set {0,2,4,6,8} which is the case here (the units digit is 6 in this case). Therefore we know the number is a multiple of 2 regardless of what the other digits are. To have 3 be a factor, the digits must add up to a multiple of 3. Through trial and error, we see that 0 doesn't work because 4+0+6 = 10 which is not a multiple of 3. Same goes for 4+1+6 = 11, but 4+2+6 = 12 is a multiple of 3.Therefore, 426 is a multiple of 6
Increment that middle digit 2 by 3 and we jump from 426 to 456. Those three digits add to a multiple of 3 as well (4+5+6 = 15). Following that line of logic, we go from 456 to 486 as the last possible three digit number that has these conditions of having 4 first and 6 last, and the number is a multiple of 6.
-------------------------------
In short,
The numbers 426 and 456 and 486 are all multiples of 6 since they are multiples of 2 and 3 at the same time.
So we could replace that middle digit with either 2, 5 or 8.

An automatic machine inserts mixed vegetables into a plastic bag. Past experience revealed that some packages were underweight and some were overweight, but most of them had satisfactory weight.
Weight % of Total Underweight 2.5 Satisfactory 90.0 Overweight 7.5a) What is the probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are overweight?b) What is the probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are satisfactory?
Answers
Answer:
a) 0.000016 = 0.0016% probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are overweight.
b) 0.729 = 72.9% probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are satisfactory
Step-by-step explanation:
The condition of the bags in the sample is independent of the other bags, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
a) What is the probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are overweight?
2.5% are overweight, which means that [tex]p = 0.025[/tex]
3 bags means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]
This probability is P(X = 3). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.025)^{3}.(0.975)^{0} = 0.000016[/tex]
0.000016 = 0.0016% probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are overweight.
b) What is the probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are satisfactory?
90% are satisfactory, which means that [tex]p = 0.9[/tex]
3 bags means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]
This probability is P(X = 3). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.9)^{3}.(0.1)^{0} = 0.729[/tex]
0.729 = 72.9% probability of selecting and finding that all three bags are satisfactory
The strength of one's immune system can be evaluated in several ways. One of the most popular methods involves measuring the concentration of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the blood. In women, the mean blood ATP level is 390 ng/mL, and the standard deviation is 115 ng/mL. It has been hypothesized that women with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) have decreased immune function. A recent study found that a random sample of 30 women with MDD had an average blood ATP level of 355 ng/mL. Using a one-sample z test, what is the p-value of this result? (HINT: This involves a one-tailed hypothesis test).
Answers
Answer:
Hence the value of p is 0.04746.
Step-by-step explanation:
The test statistic is
[tex]Z=(\bar x-\mu)/(s/vn)\\\\=(355-390)/(115/ \sqrt(30))\\\\=-1.667[/tex]
The p-value= P(Z<-1.67) =0.04746. (from standard distribution table)
Therefore p-value =0.04746.

A pediatrician claims that the standard deviation of the weights of one-year-old girls is less than pounds. Do the data provide convincing evidence that the pediatrician's claim is true
Answers
Answer:
Paedtricians claim isn't true.
Step-by-step explanation:
The hypothesis :
H0 : σ = 7
H0 : σ > 7
The test statistic ; χ² :
χ² = [(n - 1) * s²] ÷ σ²
n = 25 ; s = 4.3, σ = 7
χ² = [(25 - 1) * 4.3²] ÷ 7²
χ² = [(24 * 4.3²] ÷ 49
χ² = 443.76 / 49
χ² = 9.056
At α = 0.01 ; critical value = 42.980
Since critical value > test statistic, we fail to reject the null, H0.

Cross out three digits in the number 51489704 so that the resulting number is divisible by 45. What number is left?
Answers
The factors of 45 are 9 and 5.
A number divisible by 45 needs to be divisible by both 9 and 5.
For a number to be divisible by 9 the sum of the digits must also be divisible by 9 and the number needs to end with either a 0 or a 5 to be divisible by 5.
This means the number needs to end with the 0 so cross out the last number (4)
Now find a sum of 5 remaining numbers divisible by 9.
5 + 1 + 4 + 8 + 0 = 18 which is divisible by 9
Cross out 9,7 and the last number 4 to get the number: 51480
