Thirty mercedes and audi participated in a 30 mile race. the average driving speed of the mercedes and audi were recorded. a random sample (sample 1) of the mercedes's average driving speed (km/h) is: 120, 142, 142, 165, 132, 130, 156, 136, 167, 139, 144. a random sample (sample 2) of the audi's average driving speed (km/h) is: 112, 145, 146, 165, 163, 141, 112, 134, 113, 114, 125. what is the median of sample 1? what is the median of sample 2?

Median for sample 1 = 142

Median for sample 2 = 134

Step-by-step explanation:

For Sample 1:

For finding median, the data is first arranged into ascending or descending order. We are arranging the data in ascending order.

120, 130, 132, 136, 139, 142, 142, 144, 156, 165, 167

The formula for calculating the term which will be median is:

Median= ((n+1)/2)

Here in sample 1, n=11

So, putting n=11 in the formula

= ((11+1)/2)

= (12/2)

=6th term

The sixth term is 142, so

Median of sample 1=142

For Sample 2:

For finding median, the data is first arranged into ascending or descending order. We are arranging the data in ascending order.

112, 112, 113, 114, 125, 134, 141, 145, 146, 163, 165

The formula for calculating the term which will be median is:

Median= ((n+1)/2)

Here in sample 2, n=11

So, putting n=11 in the formula

=((11+1)/2)

=(12/2)

=6th term

The sixth term is 134, so

Median of sample 2=134

yes

(2 x^3 + 7 x^2 + 5 x + 2)/(x (x + 2))

step-by-step explanation:

simplify the following:

x/x^2 + 3 x + 2 - (x (x + 1))/(x + 2)

combine powers. x/x^2 = x^(1 - 2):

x^(1 - 2) + 3 x + 2 - (x (x + 1))/(x + 2)

1 - 2 = -1:

x^(-1) + 3 x + 2 - (x (x + 1))/(x + 2)

put each term in 1/x + 3 x + 2 - (x (x + 1))/(x + 2) over the common denominator x (x + 2): 1/x + 3 x + 2 - (x (x + 1))/(x + 2) = (x + 2)/(x (x + 2)) + (3 x^2 (x + 2))/(x (x + 2)) + (2 x (x + 2))/(x (x + 2)) - (x^2 (x + 1))/(x (x + 2)):

(x + 2)/(x (x + 2)) + (3 x^2 (x + 2))/(x (x + 2)) + (2 x (x + 2))/(x (x + 2)) - (x^2 (x + 1))/(x (x + 2))

(x + 2)/(x (x + 2)) + (3 x^2 (x + 2))/(x (x + 2)) + (2 x (x + 2))/(x (x + 2)) - (x^2 (x + 1))/(x (x + 2)) = ((x + 2) + 3 x^2 (x + 2) + 2 x (x + 2) - x^2 (x + 1))/(x (x + 2)):

(2 + x + 3 x^2 (x + 2) + 2 x (x + 2) - x^2 (x + 1))/(x (x + 2))

3 x^2 (x + 2) = 3 x^3 + 6 x^2:

(2 + x + 3 x^3 + 6 x^2 + 2 x (x + 2) - x^2 (x + 1))/(x (x + 2))

2 x (x + 2) = 2 x^2 + 4 x:

(2 + x + 6 x^2 + 3 x^3 + 2 x^2 + 4 x - x^2 (x + 1))/(x (x + 2))

-x^2 (x + 1) = -x^2 - x^3:

(-x^2 - x^3 + 3 x^3 + 6 x^2 + 2 x^2 + 4 x + x + 2)/(x (x + 2))

grouping like terms, 3 x^3 - x^3 + 6 x^2 + 2 x^2 - x^2 + 4 x + x + 2 = (3 x^3 - x^3) + (6 x^2 + 2 x^2 - x^2) + (x + 4 x) + 2:

((3 x^3 - x^3) + (6 x^2 + 2 x^2 - x^2) + (x + 4 x) + 2)/(x (x + 2))

3 x^3 - x^3 = 2 x^3:

(2 x^3 + (6 x^2 + 2 x^2 - x^2) + (x + 4 x) + 2)/(x (x + 2))

6 x^2 + 2 x^2 - x^2 = 7 x^2:

(2 x^3 + 7 x^2 + (x + 4 x) + 2)/(x (x + 2))

x + 4 x = 5 x:

answer:   (2 x^3 + 7 x^2 + 5 x + 2)/(x (x + 2))
