A2+(b−c); a=−8, b=17, c=21

-20

Step-by-step explanation:

a2 + ( b-c)

rewrite the equation

2 * a + ( b - c )

a = -8

b = 17

c = 21

substitute in the given values

(-8) 2 + ( (17) - (21) )

simplify and solve

-16 + ( 17-21)

= -16 +  (-4)

= -16 -4

=-20

two data sets with the same median will not have the same varaibility

step-by-step explanation:

logv3(x+2)=1

rewrite in exponential form:

logb(x) = y is equal to b^y =x

b = 3, y = 1

now solve for x:

3^1 = x+2)

x = 3-2

x = 1
