how to compare box plots.​

Answers

Answer 1
Compare the respective medians, to compare location.
Compare the interquartile ranges (that is, the box lengths), to compare dispersion.
Look at the overall spread as shown by the adjacent values. (This is another aspect of dispersion.)
Look for signs of skewness. If the data do not appear to be symmetric, does each batch show the same kind of asymmetry?
Look for potential outliers.
Answer 2
Final answer:

Box plots, or box-and-whisker plots, show data distribution through five main points: minimum, Q1, median, Q3, and maximum. A wider box indicates greater variability within the middle 50% of the data. To compare box plots, assess the spreads, medians, and potential outliers.

Explanation:

A box plot, also known as a box-and-whisker plot, is a graphical representation of a data set that shows the distribution through five main data points: minimum value, first quartile (Q1), median, third quartile (Q3), and maximum value.

To construct a box plot, you typically start with a number line that has been properly scaled. Using a ruler for this purpose ensures accuracy.

The box in a box plot represents the middle 50 percent of the data, spanning from Q1 to Q3.

The 'whiskers' of the plot stretch from the box to the minimum and maximum values, indicating the entire range of the dataset.

Comparing the spread of the middle 50 percent of the data involves looking at the width of the box: a wider box suggests a greater spread, meaning the data is more varied within the interquartile range (IQR).

If you are using a graphing calculator, you can enter the data into a list and then select the box plot function to graphically display the data.

When comparing two or more box plots, look for differences in their central values (medians), spreads (IQRs), and potential outliers (which lie beyond 1.5 times the IQR from the quartiles).

What is the length of side PQ in this figure?

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

o find the side PQ ; we need to first find the length of the given line segment which is perpendicular to side PR; let name it as QS.

Now as ΔQSR is an right angled triangle.

and the length of the side QR and SR is given , so using Pythagorean theorem we have

QR^{2}=SR^{2}+QS^{2}

5^{2}=3^{2}+QS^{2}\\ \\QS^{2}=5^{2}-3^{2}\\\\QS^{2}=25-3=16=4^2

⇒  QS=4

Now again ΔQSP is an right angled triangle; so using Pythagorean theorem in ΔQSP we have

PQ^{2}=QS^{2}+PS^{2}\\ \\PQ^{2}=4^{2}+6^{2}=16+36=52

This means QS=\sqrt{52}=2\sqrt{13}

Hence, the length of side PQ is \sqrt{52}=2\sqrt{13}.

Hence, option C is correct.

What is the area of this figure

Answers

Given:

Image of the figure.

To find:

The area of the figure.

Solution:

Length of larger rectangle = 9

Width of larger rectangle = 8

Area of larger rectangle = length × width

                                        = 9 × 8

Area of larger rectangle = 72 square units

Length of smaller rectangle = 4

Width of smaller rectangle = 2

Area of smaller rectangle = length × width

                                           = 4 × 2

Area of smaller rectangle= 8 square units

Area of the figure = Area of larger rectangle - Area of smaller rectangle

                              = 72 - 8

                              = 64 square units

The area of the figure is 64 square units.

Laura mowed 8 lawns. She earned $12, $10, $15, $15, $15, $10, and $9 for seven lawns. How much did she earn the eighth time if the mean of the data is $12? *

Answers

Answer:

She earned $10 for mowing the 8th lawn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the average formula and n = 8, with x representing the 8th score:

                         12 + 10 + 15 + 15 + 15 + 10 + 9 + x

average = 12 = -------------------------------------------------

                                                  8

                                                                              86 + x

Summing up the numerator, we get average = ----------- = 12

                                                                                   8

Multiplying both sides by 8 yields                          86 + x = 96

Solving for x, we get x = 10.

She earned $10 for mowing the 8th lawn.

Answer:

She earned $10 for the eighth yard.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 7 known numbers and 1 unknown giving you a total of 8 numbers.  When doing mean, you add up all the numbers and divide by the amount of numbers you have (in this case 8).  If you add all the numbers in this particular data set you get 86.  You know that you have to divide by 8 and you need 12 to be the answer.  Using multiplication facts, we know that 96 divided by 8 is equal to 12.  That means the answer must be 10 for the eighth yard because 86+10=96.

Kesha threw her baton up in the air from the marching band platform during practice. The equation h(t) = −16t² + 54t + 40 gives the height of the baton, in feet, t seconds after it is thrown from the platform. What is the height of the platform? At what speed was the baton thrown? If she doesn't catch it, when will it hit the ground?

Answers

Answer:

(a)Height of the platform=40 feet

(b)Initial Velocity=54 ft/sec

(c)4 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation [tex]h(t) = -16t\² + 54t + 40[/tex] gives the height of the baton, in feet, t seconds after it is thrown from the platform.

(a)Height of the platform

The Height of the platform is the height at which t=0

[tex]h(0) = -16(0)\² + 54(0) + 40[/tex]

Height of the platform=40 feet

(b)To determine the speed at which the baton was thrown, we find the velocity, v(t).

[tex]v(t)=\frac{dh}{dt} =\frac{d}{dt} (-16t\² + 54t + 40)=-32t+54\\$At t=0\\v(0)=-32(0)+54=54 feet/sec[/tex]

(c)The baton will hit the ground when its height, h(t)=0

[tex]-16t\² + 54t + 40=0\\\text{Solving the quadratic formular}\\t = \frac{-54\pm \sqrt{(-54)^2 - 4*40*(-16)} }{2*-16}\\= \frac{-54\pm \sqrt{5476 }}{-32}\\= \frac{-54\pm 74}{-32}\\t=\frac{-54+ 74}{-32},\frac{-54- 74}{-32}\\t=-0.625\:or \:t=4[/tex]

Since -0.625 is not valid, the baton will hit the ground 4 seconds after it is thrown.

A right triangle has a hypotenuse of square root of 50. ​ What are possible lengths of the two legs of this triangle?

Answers

For 45-45-90 degree triangle

The length of other two legs: 5

For 30-60-90 degree triangle

The shorter leg= 3.53

The larger leg = 6.11

Step-by-step explanation:

length of Hypotenuse = [tex]\sqrt{50}[/tex]

We need to find possible lengths of the two legs of this triangle.

If the triangle is 45-45-90 degree triangle the length of other two sides would be same and can be found by:

[tex]Length\,\,of\,\,leg:\frac{\sqrt{50} }{\sqrt{2} } \\Length\,\,of\,\,leg:5[/tex]

Since both legs are of same size so, length of other leg = 5

If the triangle is 30-60-90 degree triangle then:

To find shorter length: Divide hypotenuse by 2.

To find other side length: Multiply shorter length by [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

The shorter leg = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{50} }{2}= 3.53[/tex]

The other leg (larger) = [tex]3.53\times \sqrt{3} =6.11[/tex]

reflection across the x-axis
K(1, −1), N(4, 0), Q(4, −4)

Answers

The reflection across the x-axis changes the y-coordinate to its opposite. Thus, K(1, −1) becomes K(1, 1), N(4, 0) doesn't change, and Q(4, −4) becomes Q(4, 4).

The question's task is a reflection across the x-axis. This change involves flipping the coordinates in the plane over the x-axis. For a given point with coordinates (x, y), its reflection will have coordinates (x, -y). Let's apply this rule to the points given:

K(1, −1) will become K(1, 1)

N(4, 0) will remain N(4, 0) because it lies on the x-axis

Q(4, −4) will become Q(4, 4)

So, the reflected coordinates are K(1, 1), N(4, 0), Q(4, 4).

A rectangle is always a square? True or false?

False

"A rectangle is always a square" is false statement.

The probability of drawing a silver ball out of a certain bag is

1 third. What is the probability of not drawing a silver ball?

Answers

Final answer:

The probability of not drawing a silver ball, when the probability of drawing a silver ball is 1/3, is 2/3.

Explanation:

The probability of not drawing a silver ball can be found by subtracting the probability of drawing a silver ball from 1, since the sum of the probabilities of all possible outcomes must equal 1. If the probability of drawing a silver ball is 1/3, then the probability of not drawing a silver ball is 1 - 1/3 = 2/3.
