What is the interquartile range (IQR) of the following data set 17 16 21 15 25 22 18 23 17

Answers

Answer 1

IQR = 6

First locate the median [tex]Q_{2}[/tex] at the centre of the data arranged in ascending order. Then locate the lower and upper quartiles [tex]Q_{1}[/tex] and [tex]Q_{3}[/tex] located at the centre of the data to the left and right of the median.

Note that if any of the above are not whole values then they are the average of the values either side of the centre.

rearrange data in ascending order

15 16 ↓17 17 18 21 22 ↓23 25

                     ↑

[tex]Q_{2}[/tex] = 18

[tex]Q_{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16+17}{2}[/tex] = 16.5

[tex]Q_{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{22+23}{2}[/tex] = 22.5

IQR = [tex]Q_{3}[/tex] - [tex]Q_{1}[/tex] = 22.5 - 16.5 = 6




Answer 2

Final answer:

The interquartile range (IQR) for the given data set is calculated by first arranging the data in ascending order, finding the first and third quartiles (Q1 and Q3), and subtracting Q1 from Q3. The correct IQR for this data set, following this methodology, is 6, not the mistakenly provided 7.

Explanation:

The question asks about calculating the interquartile range (IQR) of a given data set. The IQR is important because it measures the middle 50% spread of data, pinpointing where the bulk of values lie, and helps in identifying potential outliers. To compute the IQR, we first need to organize the data in ascending order, then find the first quartile (Q1) and the third quartile (Q3), and finally subtract Q1 from Q3 (IQR = Q3 - Q1).

For the provided data set: 17, 16, 21, 15, 25, 22, 18, 23, 17:

Arrange data in ascending order: 15, 16, 17, 17, 18, 21, 22, 23, 25.

Find the median (Q2), which is 18 in this case as it's the middle value.

Q1 is the median of the first half (excluding the middle value if odd number of data), so Q1 = 16.5.

Q3 is the median of the second half, hence Q3 = 22.5.

Therefore, IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 22.5 - 16.5 = 6.

Contrary to the mistaken calculation of IQR as 9 - 2 = 7 provided in the reference, the computed IQR for this data set, following the correct methodology, is 6.

Which of the following must be given to prove that ΔABC is similar to ΔDBA?
a. Segment AD is an altitude of ΔABC.
b. Segment CB is a hypotenuse.
c. Segment CA is shorter than segment BA.
d. Angle C is congruent to itself.

Answers

this answer is a (A) segment AD is an altitude at angle ABC

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given triangles to be similar the segment AD must be an altitude of ΔABC.

We can provide a theorem for the same:

If we draw an altitude from the right angle of any right triangle, then the two triangles formed are similar to the original triangle.

Also all the three triangles are similar to each other.

Like here, in the triangle ABC, we draw an altitude from A to the side BC, thus forming 2 triangles; ΔDBA and ΔDAC. These both will be similar to ΔABC.

So, by the theorem it is proven that  ΔABC is similar to ΔDBA.

Therefore, option A is correct.

the equation of a quadratic in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

y = (x - 6 )² - 2 ← in vertex form

(b)

to find the zeros let y = 0

(x - 6 )² - 2 = 0 ( add 2 to both sides )

(x - 6 )² = 2 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 6 = ±√2 ← ( note plus or minus )

add 6 to both sides

Which is the most accurate way to estimate 33% of 52?

1/3 x 51 or 1/3 x 53?

Answers

The most accurate way to estimate 33% of 52 is explained as follows:

To find a percentage, we calculate it as follows:

a% of b [tex]=\frac{a}{100} \times b[/tex]

Now, lets convert 33% into fraction first:

33% [tex]=\frac{33}{100} =0.33[/tex]

Now,

[tex]0.33 \times 52=17.16 \approx 17[/tex]

We have two ways to calculate the same so we will compare the values of them and figure out which gives a value nearer to our actual value:

So, [tex]\frac{1}{3} \times51=17[/tex] and [tex]\frac{1}{3} \times 53=17.66[/tex]

We can see that the first method gives us a value which is far closer to the actual value.

Therefore, [tex]\frac{1}{3} \times 51[/tex] is the most accurate way to estimate 33% of 52.

9g=3(-4+5g) solve for g plzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Answers

9g = 3(5g - 4)

3g = 5g - 4

3g - 5g = -4

-2g = -4

g = -4/-2 = 4/2

Answer: g = 2

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

9g=3(−4+5g)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

9g=3(−4+5g)

9g=(3)(−4)+(3)(5g)(Distribute)

9g=−12+15g

9g=15g−12

Step 2: Subtract 15g from both sides.

9g−15g=15g−12−15g

−6g=−12

Step 3: Divide both sides by -6.

−6g /-6=-12/-6

A person who is 6.2 feet tall is standing in a pool. The top of the person's head is 2.8 feet above the surface of the water. How deep is the pool?

Answers

Answer:

3.8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the person is standing in a pool.  That means he is keeping his feet at the bottom level of the pool.  His height is 6.2 ft.  

Top of the person head above the surface of water= 2.8 feet.

Hence height of the person= Top of the person head above the surface of water+depth of the pool

6.2 = 2.8+depth of pool

Depth of pool = 6.2-2.8 = 3.4 feet.

the pool is four feet deep

$300 was deposited in a Certificate of Deposit (CD) yielding 6% interest compounded quarterly. how many years will it take the CD to reach a value of $876.34?

Answers

The future value (A) of a one-time investment of principal amount P at interest rate r compounded n times per year for t years is ...

... A = P(1 +r/n)^(nt)

Putting your given numbers into the formula, we have

... 876.34 = 300(1 +.06/4)^(4t)

Taking logarithms, this becomes the linear equation

... log(876.34) = log(300) + 4t·log(1.015)

Solving for t in the usual way, we get

... log(876.34) -log(300) = 4t·log(1.015) . . . . . . . subtract the constant term on the right

... (log(876.34) -log(300))/(4·log(1.015)) = t ≈ 18.00 . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

It will take 18 years for the $300 CD to reach a value of $876.34.

Hello there,

So you have two fractions 2/5 and 1/4, but none of them have the same denominator... However a LCD that you can get from both of these is 20, so if you multiplied 4 on the top and the bottom for 2/5, you would get 8/20, and for 1/4, multiply 5 on the top and the bottom, and soon you end up with 5/20. If you added these two fractions together, now knowing that they have the same denominator... you would end up with 13/20 which is the answer to your problem.

The function f(x) describes a parabola that opens downward. The only graph with that shape is the 2nd one.

The degree of 2 on the x² term means there will be only 1 turning point (1 less than the degree). The bottom two choices have more turning points than that.

The minus sign on the coefficient of x² means the graph opens downward—that it tends toward -∞ when x gets very large in magnitude, either positive or negative.

y = -2x + b is what you have so far. Now you have to use the point to get b


y = - 100


x = - 100


Solve for b


-100 = -2(-100) + b


-100 = 200 + b       Notice the sign change. Two minus's make a plus. Subtract 200 from both sides.

Answers

Answer:

B. 0.075 in

Evan apparently divided by time. He might do that if he were not paying attention to units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rainfall rate is ...

... (1.5 in)/(60 s) = (1/40) in/s = 0.025 in/s

To find the rainfall in 3 s, you need to multiply rate by time:

... (0.025 in/s)×(3 s) = 0.075 in

If you keep the rate and time in terms of minutes, then you have:

... (1.5 in/min)×(0.05 min) = 0.075 in

_____

Evan apparently divided, instead. His number is not inches.

... (1.5 in/min)/(0.05 min) = 30 in/min² . . . . not the appropriate units for the problem

The correct amount of rain that fell in 3 seconds at Brasse Terre, Guadalupe, is 0.075 inches, as calculated by multiplying the rate of 1.5 inches per minute by 0.05 minutes. Evan made an error leading to answer D, which is incorrect.

In 1970, a record 1.5 inches of rain fell in one minute. To find out how much rain fell in 3 seconds, which is 0.05 of a minute, we need to multiply the rate of rainfall by the fraction of the minute we are interested in. The calculation is as follows:

1.5 inches/minute x 0.05 minute = 0.075 inches

Evan seems to have misunderstood the calculation, leading to answer D, but the correct amount of rain that fell in 3 seconds is 0.075 inches, which corresponds to option B.
