- Suppose you have two histograms: one where the mean equals the median, and one where the mean is different from the median. How would you expect the two histograms to differ.arrow_forward(a) The variables have been stripped of their names. Which one do you think is "household income" ?(b) Calculate the mean, median, and standard deviation of household income. Do these numbers fit with your expectations? (c) Suppose you have two histograms: one where the mean equals the median, and one where the mean is different from the median. How would you expect the two histograms to differ?arrow_forwardJanet Foster bought a computer and printer at Computerland. The printer had a $860 list price with a $100 trade discount and 210210 , n30n30 terms. The computer had a $4,020 list price with a 25% trade discount but no cash discount. On the computer, Computerland offered Janet the choice of (1) paying $150 per month for 17 months with the 18th payment paying the remainder of the balance or (2) paying 6% interest for 18 months in equal payments. Assume Janet could borrow the money for the printer at 6% to take advantage of the cash discount. How much would Janet save? Note: Use 360 days a year. Round your answer to the nearest cent.arrow_forward
