After a statistics class, dr. johnson asked all 51 of her students the degree to which they felt statistics were going to be useful in their eventual career. she had all of her students respond to the following question, "statistics will be very useful in my future profession," using the following scale: 1 = not at all useful and 7 = very useful. she found that the median response was a 5.5. given that the median of 5.5 was based on all of her students, the 5.5 would be called

The 5.5 would be called a parameter.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parameter in statistics is a data/number/quantity that gives you information about an entire population. Given that Dr. Johnson asked ALL of her students to respond the question and the median of 5.5 was based on ALL of her students, we can say that this number would be a parameter for the population (in this case, Dr. Johnson's class)

4sqrt5

step-by-step explanation:

the base has dimensions of 8 x 4, so the diagonal is 64 + 16 square rooted or 4sqrt5.
