Minnie wants to know if the number of words on a page in her planetary science book is generally more than the number of words on a page in her math book. She takes a random sample of 25 pages in each book, then calculates the mean, median, and mean absolute deviation for the 25 samples of each book.

Mean Median Mean Absolute Deviation

Planetary science: 48.9 41 9.2

Math: 34.5 44 1.9

She claims that because the mean number of words on each page in the planetary science book is greater than the mean number of words on each page in the math book, the planetary science book has more words per page. Based on the data, is this a valid inference?

No, because there is a lot of variability in the planetary science book data.

Yes, because there is a lot of variability in the planetary science book data.

Yes, because the mean is larger in the planetary science book.

No, because the mean is larger in the planetary science book.

step-by-step explanation:

a.   since the profit made in 2012 is equal to the profit made in 2014, the profit is           symmetric about the line y = 120,000.

step-by-step explanation:

given that megan owns a clothing boutique.

the profits of 2010, 11, are recorded and shown as follows:

years since     2010 0     1     2     3       4       5

profits made in 1000's   39       84     111     120   111     84

we find that profit gradually increases form 2010 to 2013 upto 120,   then starts decreasing.

the profits for 2012 and 2014 are the same while that of 2011 and 2015 are also the same.

this shows that there is symmetry about the line profit = 120000

hence answer is:

a.   since the profit made in 2012 is equal to the profit made in 2014, the profit is           symmetric about the line y = 120,000.

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer option is d. la = πrs.

step-by-step explanation:

we know that for a right cone, the lateral surface area is given by:

lateral area of right cone =

here the value under the square root is equal to slant height so replacing this value by in the formula to get:

lateral area of right cone =

therefore, the correct answer option is d.
