This week you will explore the wonderful world of descriptive statistics. You may not have noticed how often you. are presented with statistics in the media and in everyday conversations. It is common for people to make statements like "Statistics show that… [insert claim]." Autism is more prevalent in boys than in girls. What sorts of follow up questions about the statistics might you ask that person in order to obtain the data needed to make a decision about the validity of that statement? Be sure to use concepts and vocabulary from this week to guide your response. Can I use Autism to find the statistics? I am completely at a loss! I appreciate your help. I am 54 and struggling with this part of Math anything you can suggest will be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much! Inga

Correct answer would be option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helped :)

x = central angle apc = measure of minor arc ac

the two angles x and 30 add to 180, so x+30 = 180 and x = 180-30 = 150. the measure of minor arc ac is 150 degrees.

what we need to do from here is find the circumference and then multiply it by x/360 since there are 360 degrees in a circle. in this case, x = 150, so x/360 = 150/360 = 15/36 = 5/12. the shortest distance along the curve from a to c is 5/12 of the distance around the entire circle (aka circumference)

c = circumference

c = pi*d

c = pi*24

c = 24pi

now multiply this by 5/12 to get

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(circumference)

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(24pi)

distance along minor arc ac = 10pi

the formula you can use is

l = (x/360)*pi*d

with

l = length of minor arc

x = central angle

d = diameter

which essentially is the steps we took though a bit differently.
