Mean Median mode

Who invented median?

-Francis Galton 


Who invented mode?

-Karl Pearson 


Who invented Mean?

- The term is first found in the mid-1690s in the writings of Edmund Halley.


What does Median mean?
- The middle value of a range of values.

What does Mode mean?
- The mode is the value that appears most frequently in a data set. A set of data may have one mode, more than one mode, or no mode at all.

What does Mean mean?
- The mean (average) of a data set is found by adding all numbers in the data set and then dividing by the number of values in the set.

Why do we use Median?
- The mean value of numerical data is without a doubt the most commonly used statistical measure. Sometimes the median is used as an alternative to the mean. ... Just like the mean value, the median also represents the location of a set of numerical data by means of a single number.

Why do we use Mode?
- Mode is most useful as a measure of central tendency when examining categorical data, such as models of cars or flavors of soda, for which a mathematical average median value based on ordering can not be calculated.

Why do we use Mean?
-  The mean can be used to get an overall idea, or picture, of the data set. Mean is best used for a data set with numbers that are close together. The median can be used to get an idea of what values fall above the midpoint and what values fall below the midpoint.

How to work out the volume?

 

How to work out the volume?


What do we mean by volume?

- the amount of space that a substance or object occupies or that is enclosed within a container.


How do we measure it?

- In math, the volume is the amount of space in a certain 3D object. For example, a fish tank has 3 feet in length, 1 foot in width, and two feet in height. To find the volume, you multiply length times width times height, which is 3x1x2, which equals six. So the volume of the fish tank is 6 cubic feet.


Is there a conversion to liters?

- A liter is a cubic decimetre, which is the volume of a cube 10 centimeters × 10 centimeters × 10 centimeters (1 L ≡ 1 dm3 ≡ 1000 cm3). Hence 1 L ≡ 0.001 m3 ≡ 1000 cm3 and 1 m3 (i.e. a cubic meter, which is the SI unit for volume) is exactly 1000 L.


The volume of a rectangle

- To find the volume of a rectangle, multiply its 3 dimensions: length x width x height. The volume is expressed in cubic units.


The volume of a cylinder

- A cylinder's volume is π r² h, and its surface area is 2π r h + 2π r²


The volume of a prism 

-Volume of a rectangular prism = (length x width x height) cubic units. V = (l x w x h) cubic units


The volume of a barrel

- Formula. Barrel Volume = πh12 (2D2 + d2


The volume of a cone


There is a kiddy pool in the back garden it is 3 meters wide 8 meters long and we can only fill it 1.2m high.

- How much water does it take to full?

to calculate I use 

lxbxh

3 x 8 x l.2 = 28.8

I know that 1m3 = 1 liter = 1000cm3

28.8 x 1000 = 28800 liter


-the pool is on a deck how heavy is it?

3m x 8m x 1.2m = 28.8M3

1l = 1kg
28.8 x 1000 = 28800kg

There is a trailer of barrels 

Each barrel is 1.5m high with a diameter of 0.75m


how much weight is on the trailer

0.75/2 = 0.375

3.142 x 0.375 x 2 = 2.3565m2

2.3565 x 1000 - 2356.5

2356.5 x 6 = 14139L
