What happens to the median of the data set {10, 2, 8, 9, 5, 2, 6} if the number 12 is added to the data set?
A. The median increases by 2.
B. The median decreases by 1.
C. The median does not change.
D. The median increases by 1.

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Median- The average

The average can be found by adding the numbers together and dividing by the amount of numbers, in this case that would be 7. 10+2+8+9+5+2+6=42. 42÷7= 6. So the average before 12 is 6. 42+12 is the total adding that 12 and would equal 54. 54÷8=6.75, averaging out to 7. The average increased by about 1. So, the answer is D.

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)

options a,b,c are the right answer.

step-by-step explanation:

a linear parent function is always represented as y = x

if we write this function in the form of y=mx+c

⇒

or  

now if we plot a graph we will find these characteristics:

1) y intercept of the graph is zero so its a straight line passing through origin.

2) as we can see in both the forms of function written, values of x and y may be either positive or negative for the positive slope means points on the graph are either in first quadrant or in third one.

3) it's slope is one.
