HELP ASAP!! K12 / KEYSTONE QUESTION! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! HELP!

1. Find the balance point for the points 0.4, 1.4, and 1.8.

2. Which measure of center is indicated by the center of balance, the median, the mean, or the mode?

3. Define what is meant by “measure of center.”

If you don't know the answer then please don't answer, this is appreciated!

A) mean = 1.2

B) median

C) The measures of center use data points to approximate a middle value or average of a given data set

Step-by-step explanation:

The “balance” process was developed to provide another way in which the mean characterizes the “center” of a distribution. 

The mean is the balance point of the data set when the data are shown as dots on a dot plot (or pennies on a ruler). 

A) The balance point for the points 0.4, 1.4, and 1.8. Will be

(0.4 + 1.4 + 1.8)/3 = 3.6/3 = 1.2

B) The median is the measure of center that is indicated by the center of balance

The median is the value in the center of the data. Half of the values are less than the median and half of the values are more than the median. It is probably the best measure of center to use in a skewed distribution.

C) A measure of central (measure of center tendency) is a value that describe a set of data by identifying the central position of the data set. The three measures of central tendency are the mean, median and mode.

the simplified form is

step-by-step explanation:

we want to simplify the expression,

let us change the middle bar to a normal division sign to obtain,

we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction to obtain,

we factor to obtain,

we cancel the common factors to get,

we simplify to get,

the correct answer is b
