HEL NOA music teacher asked 23 students in the band how many hours they practiced playing their instrument each week. The results are shown in the dot plot. Which statement best describes
the data?
The data are skewed left, so most students' practice times are
less than the mean practice time.
Time Spent Practicing
The data are skewed left, so most students' practice times are
more than the mean practice time.

a. The data are skewed left, so most student's practice times are more than the mean practice time.

b. The data are skewed left, so most student's practice times are less than the mean practice time.

c. The data are skewed right, so most student's practice times are less than the mean practice time.

d. The data are skewed right, so most student's practice times are more than the mean practice time.

The correct option is a.

The data are skewed left, so most student's practice times are more than the mean practice time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the attached box plot which shows number of hours the students spent on practice for playing their instrument each week.

When the data distribution is not symmetric around the mean then it is either skewed to right or skewed to left.

The given box plot is skewed to the left since the tail of the distribution on the left side is longer than the right side or in other words, most of the data is leaning to the right side of the curve.

Due to this, most student's practice times are more than the mean practice time.

A left skewed distribution is also known as negatively skewed distribution.

Therefore, we can conclude that the correct option is a.

a. The data are skewed left, so most student's practice times are more than the mean practice time.

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation cos(35) =a/25 can be used to find the length of bc what is the length of bc? round to the nearest tenth

step-by-step explanation:

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is
