1.4×5=7

0.8×10=8

1.4×10=14

1×15=15

15+14+8+7=44

44÷4=11

LQ of 44=11

LQ=10 minutes

11×3=33

UQ= 29 minutes

The Range is 19 minutes

Detailed breakdown:

Commence with the individual boxes. For determining the number of students in each category, calculate Frequency density × The difference in the category. (if it's 5-15, the difference is 10)

This results in the counts of students in each range.

Next, determine the LQ of 44, which is 11.

Then locate the 11th student's score; in this instance, it resides in the 5-15 range. 7 students have already surpassed it, with 8 in the 5-15 range. Hence, the 11th lies within the bounds of 5-15, making the middle 10.

Repeat this process for the UQ.

The interquartile range is calculated as UQ-LQ, yielding 29-10=19 minutes.

I hope this helps, though I'm not entirely sure if my explanation is coherent and I'm unclear on the terminology I've used for these categories.

What is the value of x in the equation 4 x plus 8 y equals 40, when y equals 0.8? 4.6 8.4 10 12What is the value of a in the equ
AnnZ [12381]

Answer:

1. 8.4 2. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 4x + 8y = 40

when y = 0.8

4x + 8 × 0.8 = 40

4x = 40 - 8 × 0.8

4x = 40 - 6.4 = 33.6

....x = 33.6 / 4 = 8.4

2. 3a + b = 54

when b = 9

3a + 9 = 54

3a = 54 - 9

3a = 45

.....a = 45 / 3 = 15

A grocery store wants to examine the relationship between the sales amounts each day at two different locations, store A and sto
Leona [12618]

Response:

The average of the 10 sales figures for store A is $40,000.

Detailed explanation:

Provided;

yˆ= −3,000 + 1.2x...................... (1)

Where;

x = daily sales amounts at store A or the average of the 10 sales amounts for store A =?

yˆ = daily sales amounts at store B or the average of the 10 sales amounts for store B = $45,000

Substituting y = 45,000 into equation (1) and solving for x, yields:

45,000 = −3,000 + 1.2x

45,000 + 3,000 = 1.2x

48,000 = 1.2x

x = 48,000 / 1.2

x = 40,000

Consequently, the mean of the 10 sales figures for store A is $40,000.

How is shading a grid to show 1 tenth different from shading a grid to show 1 hundredth?
AnnZ [12381]
To illustrate 1 hundredth (or 1%) on a grid consisting of 100 units, shade only 1 unit. In contrast, to illustrate 1 tenth (or 10%), you would shade 10 units. A visual representation of the grid would be helpful for further explanation.

Leona [12618]
<span>The system of equations that can determine if the commuter jet’s flight path crosses the restricted airspace is:

y = \frac{1}{4}(x - 10)^2 + 6  (i)
y = \frac{-27}{34}x - \frac{5}{17}  (ii)
</span><span>
Here's why:
</span><span>
The closed airspace boundary is defined by points (10, 6) and (12, 7).
</span>
The commuter jet’s linear path runs from (-18, 14) to (16, -13).

Equation (i) describes the boundary since it fits both (10, 6) and (12, 7):

For (10, 6):
\frac{1}{4}(10-10)^2 + 6 = 6 (true)

For (12, 7):
\frac{1}{4}(12-10)^2 + 6 = 1 + 6 = 7 (true)

Equation (ii) represents the commuter jet’s path as it fits both (-18, 14) and (16, -13):

For (16, -13):
-13 = \frac{-27}{34} \times 16 - \frac{5}{17} = -13 (true)

For (-18, 14):
14 = \frac{-27}{34} \times (-18) - \frac{5}{17} = 14 (true)

By solving this system, we can confirm that the jet’s flight path intersects the closed airspace.
