Complete question :
A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?
1) 2 1/2 feet
2) 3 feet
4) 5 feet
5) 8 1/2 feet
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for X in the perimeter equation :
2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74
Open the bracket
2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74
2(27 + 4x) = 74
54 + 8x = 74
8x = 74 - 54
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 2.5
Hence, width fo border = 2.5
Correlation coefficients are expressed by a number between -1 and 1.
If the value is -1 or 1 it indecates a perfect (negative and positive) correlation.
If the value is 0 indicates null correlation.
As the correlation value for you data set is -0.833 it is very close to the -1. It indicates a good correlation in the data. Then, the value you predicted is reasonably close to the actual value.

A. Median number is the middle number. We can cross one off from left to right to get 4.
B. Interquartile range is Q3-Q1. Q1 is 2 and Q3 is 5, so the interquartile range is 3.
C. I don't know the original set, but an outlier can affect the mean.
