Joe and Tim observed two points, P and Q, on a number line.

A number line is shown from negative 1 to positive 1 with increments of 1 over 8. A point P is shown at the third tick mark to the left of 0, and a point Q is shown at the third tick mark to the right of 0.

Joe said that the absolute values of the numbers represented by the two points are different.

Tim said that the absolute values of the numbers represented by the two points are the same.

Which of the following explains who is correct?

Joe, because the points have different signs
Tim, because each point is fraction 3 over 8 unit away from 0
Tim, because the distance between the points is fraction 3 over 8 unit
Joe, because the points are at different locations

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.

step-by-step explanation:

hello :

by applying the distributive property :

6 × 4.3 = 6 × ( 4 + 0.3 )

            =   (6 ×   4) + (6 ×   0.3)

            = 24 + 1.8

6 × 4.3 = 25.8
