-2(x + 5) = 4, what is x?

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 ( x + 5 ) = 4

-2x - 10 = 4

      +10   +10

-2x = 14

divide by -2

x = -7

binomial distribution

median= 2

range = 7-0 = 7

how to find median?

no. of term=28

median=(28+1)/2=14.5th term

the 14th and 15th term are 2, therefore the median is (2+2)/2 = 2

solution:

as, mean is defined as sum of all the observations divided by total number of observations.

and , median is mid value of the data whether arranged in ascending order or descending order.

consider, roadsters:

2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

mean =

also, median= , because number of observations is even, so median is mean of two mid values.

now, coming to bandits

2,3,4,5,6

mean =  

median = 4, as number of observations is odd.

so, roadsters has greater median as well mean than bandits.

→option a is true about the repairs performed on 2 types of cars:

bandits have lower median and mean than roadsters.
