The reacttimes data set has 50 observations of human reaction times to a physical stimulus. the reaction times are named times and arranged in increasing order below. 0.12 0.30 0.35 0.37 0.44 0.57 0.61 0.62 0.71 0.80 0.88 1.02 1.08 1.12 1.13 1.17 1.21 1.23 1.35 1.41 1.42 1.42 1.46 1.50 1.52 1.54 1.60 1.61 1.68 1.72 1.86 1.90 1.91 2.07 2.09 2.16 2.17 2.20 2.29 2.32 2.39 2.47 2.60 2.86 3.43 3.43 3.77 3.97 4.54 4.73 1. find the mean and median of times without using r. you may

Solution: The formula for mean is:

Where:

is the sum of given observations

is the number of observations

rounded to two decimal places

To find the median, we need to first arrange the data in ascending order but we are already given the data in ascending order.

Therefore, the median is:

Therefore, the median = 1.53

answer: c, the green line

step-by-step explanation:

there is no black line, eliminate b.

simple interest implies periodic payments, but the red line shows no payments, eliminate d.

simple interest has equal payments. if paid say every day, the graph is about a straight line (actually a stairstep).

the yellow line is not straight, eliminate a.

check: the green line is straight, answer is c.

simple interest with positive interest rate gives a straight line sloping up to the right. green line:

g(t) = $100 + ($200-$100) ÷ (20 years) × (t years)

= $100 + (4%/year) × ($100)(t years)

incidentally, the yellow line curving upward represents continuously compounded interest

y = $100 × 2^(t years / (14 assuming the yellow line hits $200 at 14 years. 2^0 is 1, so y(0) = $100; 2^(14/14) is 2, so y(14) = $200.
