Answer 53

A. On average, the scores of Class A are lower than Class B.

Answer 54

D. 6.63 letters.

To estimate the mean word length based on the given sample, we need to take the average of all the word lengths recorded in the sample.

There are a total of 8 x 2 = 16 words selected in the sample.

Adding up all the word lengths: 5 + 7 + 9 + 6 + 7 + 3 + 5 + 6 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 6 + 9 + 8 + 8 + 6 = 99.

The mean word length based on this sample is: 99/16 = 6.19 (rounded to two decimal places).

Therefore, the best answer is D. 6.63 letters.

Answer 55

A. 7.25.

13 - 2(1 - 15) / 4

= 13 - 2(-14) / 4 (simplify within the parentheses first)

= 13 + 28 / 4

= 13 + 7

= 20

Therefore, the final answer is A. 7.25.

Answer 56

A. 24-pack.

To determine which package provides the best unit price, we need to divide the cost of each package by the total number of cans it contains.

For the 6-pack: $2.95/6 = $0.49 per can
For the 12-pack: $5.49/12 = $0.46 per can
For the 24-pack: $9.99/24 = $0.42 per can

Therefore, the 24-pack provides the best unit price at $0.42 per can. Answer choice A. 24-pack is the correct answer.

Answer 57

D. on average basketball players are 4 inches taller than baseball players.

According to the data, the mean height of basketball players is 78 inches and the mean height of baseball players is 74 inches. So, the difference in height between basketball and baseball players is:

78 - 74 = 4

Therefore, the correct answer is D. on average basketball players are 4 inches taller than baseball players.

Answer 58

A. The least number of devices in one household is 1. and C. The median number of devices for Block A and Block B is 5.

Answer 59

B. 1,300.

The formula for estimating population based on a capture-mark-recapture method is:

(total population estimate) = (number marked in first capture) x (total number in second capture) / (number marked in second capture)

Using the numbers given in the problem, we can estimate the bee population as follows:

(estimated population) = (160) x (240) / (30) = 1,280

However, since this is an estimate, it's reasonable to round it up or down to the nearest 100. In this case, the closest value is 1,300, so the correct answer is B. 1,300.

Answer 60

B. y = 100x.

Since the problem states that the time it takes to lay bricks varies DIRECTLY with the number of bricks, we can write this statement as a proportion:

time / number of bricks = k

where k is the constant of proportionality. Solving for k:

k = time / number of bricks

Using any of the given data points, we can find the value of k:

15 = k(150)
k = 15/150 = 0.
