Anthony wants to know the average daily high temperatures in his town during the summer. He chose
two random samples of 10 consecutive days and recorded the daily high temperatures. The daily high
temperatures in Fahrenheit are as follows.
Sample 1: 78 82 85 87 90 85 79 86 91 88
Sample 2: 81 79 80 86 89 92 82 88 84 87
Find the mean daily high temperatures of each sample and calculate the difference between these
mean daily high temperatures.

To find the median value of the houses, we must first arrange the values in ascending order:
$150,000, $220,000, $490,000, $540,000, $800,000, $975,000

Since there are 18 total houses, the median value will be the 9th value when arranged in ascending order.

Therefore, the median value of the houses on Mango Street is $540,000.

To find out whose mean test score will increase the most after getting 100% on the latest test, we need to calculate the mean test scores for each student before and after the latest test.

Theo:
Mean of previous 6 scores: (84 + 88 + 81 + 85 + 77 + 76) / 6 = 81.83
Mean after getting 100%: (81.83 + 100) / 2 = 90.92

Jose:
Mean of previous 6 scores: (91 + 93 + 97 + 96 + 96 + 96) / 6 = 95.83
Mean after getting 100%: (95.83 + 100) / 2 = 97.92

Ara:
Mean of previous 6 scores: (100 + 98 + 99 + 97 + 100 + 100) / 6 = 98.33
Mean after getting 100%: (98.33 + 100) / 2 = 99.17

Dana:
Mean of previous 6 scores: (68 + 74 + 83 + 80 + 81 + 82) / 6 = 77.67
Mean after getting 100%: (77.67 + 100) / 2 = 88.83

Whose mean test score will increase the most:
- Theo's mean score increased by 9.09
- Jose's mean score increased by 2.08
- Ara's mean score increased by 0.84
- Dana's mean score increased by 11.16

Therefore, Dana's mean test score will increase the most after getting 100% on the latest test.

To find the range of the speeds of the fastest steel roller coasters on both continents, we need to determine the highest and lowest speeds on each continent.

In Europe:
- The highest speed is 115 mph
- The lowest speed is 74 mph

In North America:
- The highest speed is 128 mph
- The lowest speed is 85 mph

Now, we calculate the range for each continent by subtracting the lowest speed from the highest speed:

Europe: 115 mph - 74 mph = 41 mph
North America: 128 mph - 85 mph = 43 mph

Therefore, the range of the speeds of the fastest steel roller coasters is 41 mph in Europe and 43 mph in North America.

To find the mean daily high temperatures of each sample, we need to calculate the average of the temperatures in each sample:

Sample 1:
Mean daily high temperature = (78 + 82 + 85 + 87 + 90 + 85 + 79 + 86 + 91 + 88) / 10
Mean daily high temperature = 861 / 10
Mean daily high temperature = 86.1°F

Sample 2:
Mean daily high temperature = (81 + 79 + 80 + 86 + 89 + 92 + 82 + 88 + 84 + 87) / 10
Mean daily high temperature = 848 / 10
Mean daily high temperature = 84.8°F

Now, we calculate the difference between the mean daily high temperatures of each sample:
Difference = Mean temperature of Sample 1 - Mean temperature of Sample 2
Difference = 86.1 - 84.8
Difference = 1.3°F

Therefore, the difference between the mean daily high temperatures of the two samples is 1.3°F.

To find the percentage of students who own a bird as a pet based on the two samples, we need to first calculate the total number of students who own a bird in both samples.

Sample 1:
Number of students who own a bird in Sample 1 = 8

Sample 2:
Number of students who own a bird in Sample 2 = 12

Total number of students who own a bird = 8 + 12 = 20

Total number of students in both samples = 100 + 100 = 200

Percentage of students who own a bird as a pet = (Number of students who own a bird / Total number of students) x 100
Percentage = (20 / 200) x 100
Percentage = 0.1 x 100
Percentage = 10%

Therefore, based on the two samples, 10% of the students own a bird as a pet.

To find the range of the number of goals scored by each team, we need to determine the highest and lowest number of goals scored by each team.

For Lacrosse Team 1:
- The highest number of goals scored is 17
- The lowest number of goals scored is 0

Range for Team 1: 17 - 0 = 17

For Lacrosse Team 2:
- The highest number of goals scored is 23
- The lowest number of goals scored is 14

Range for Team 2: 23 - 14 = 9

Now, we compare the ranges to determine which team has a more consistent number of goals scored. A smaller range indicates more consistency.

In this case, Lacrosse Team 2 has a smaller range of 9 compared to Lacrosse Team 1 with a range of 17. This means that Lacrosse Team 2 has a more consistent number of goals scored.
