Thanks, btw, could u please explain me[/quote]Hi, median is the middle mark. Assuming you take 2.5 as a mark on it's own, the number of students who got 0, 1, 2, and 2.5 is a total of 7. Then because you need 2.5 to be the number in the middle, the number of people who got 3 marks, 4 marks and the 2.5 mark has also to be equal to 7. Therefore, 7 -1 -1 = 5.

To double check, you can add up all the values (2+1+3+1+5) = 12 and then +1 = 13 divided by 2 to find the median, which is 2.5.

Find Mean, median and mode of the distribution

Mean: Add everything up, divide by number of pupils.
Median: Find the middle number, just add all the pupils + 1 divided by 2.
Mode: The one with the most number of pupils.

Please try the questions first at least before just posting without even attempting ._. Mode is the easiest thing to find, and so is mean.

how to solve using quadratic formula. Help please!

5(x² +4)=12x

step 1: remove the bracket by multiply 5 into the all the terms inside the bracket
step 2: move 12x from RHS to LHS

5(x² +4)=12x
5x² + 20 = 12x
5x² + 20 - 12x = 0

Stop here, try to solve from here. if hit problem do post then i will continue

A Sec.2 Maths question of Proportion.


Q) The scale of map P is 1:p and the scale of map Q is 1:q. If the same area is represented as 32sq.cm. on map P and 50sq.cm. on map Q, calculate the ratio p:q.

Kindly show workings as well.

Thank you.
