The volume of a sphere is increasing at a constant rate of 2952 cubic centimeters per second. At the instant when the radius of the sphere is 1010 centimeters, what is the rate of change of the radius? The volume of a sphere can be found with the equation V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3.V= 3
4

πr
3
. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Step-by-step explanation:Let us set up the following variables:

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.
