Answer:

(D)

Step-by-step explanation:

The box plot is a visual representation of the 5-number summary of the data. It shows the extremes, the quartiles and the median.

Each data set has 11 elements, sorted into increasing order.

<h3>extremes</h3>

The first and last elements of the data set correspond to the ends of the whiskers, so you are looking for a set that ranges from 3 to 18. (This eliminates choice B.)

<h3>median</h3>

The median will be the middle element, the 6th from either end. The vertical line in the box identifies its value as 10. (This eliminates choice A.)

<h3>quartiles</h3>

The first quartile is the middle element of the bottom half of the data set (what remains after the median and above elements are removed). There are 5 elements in the bottom half, so the first quartile is the 3rd one. It is signified by the left end of the box in the box plot. Its value is 7. (This eliminates choice C.)

Similarly, the third quartile is the 3rd element from the right end of the data set. The value 13 in choice D matches the right end of the box in the box plot.

The box plot represents the data set in Choice D.

Answer:

avocado=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the following equations:

snail + snail - cellphone=avocado

maple leaf * cellphone=10

0+maple leaf=5

snail = cellphone + 1

avocado=?

This may seem confusing at first, but let's try to find the value of one of the items to help us to solve for the others

For example, we have the equation 0 + maple leaf= 5

Which means if we subtract 0 from both sides, we should get the value of the maple leaf

Which means that the maple leaf= 5

Now we know that maple leaf * cellphone = 10

So that means 5*cellphone=10

Divide by 5 on both sides

cellphone= 2

We know that snail = cellphone + 1

As we learned from above, cellphone= 2

Which means that snail = 2+1=3

We know that snail + snail - cellphone = avocado

And as calculated from above, snail = 3 and cellphone = 2

Which means:

3 + 3 - 2= avocado

Add

6-2=avocado

Subtract

4=avocado

Hope this helps!

Verify that -5, 1/2, and 3/4 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial 4x^3+20x^2+2x-3. Also verify the relationship between the ze

Finger [1]

Solution:

we have been asked to verify that -5, 1/2, and 3/4 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial $4x^3+20x^2+2x-3$

To verify that whether the given values are zeros or not we will substitute the values in the given Polynomial, if it will returns zero, it mean that value is Zero of the polynomial. But if it return any thing other than zeros it mean that value is not the zero of the polynomial.

Let $f(x)=4x^3+20x^2+2x-3\\\\\text{when x=-5}\\\\f(-5)=4(-5)^3+20(-5)^2+2(-5)-3=-13\\\\\text{when x=}\frac{1}{2}\\$

$f( \frac{1}{2} ) = 4 ( \frac{1}{2} )^3+20(\frac{1}{2})^2+2(\frac{1}{2})-3=\frac{7}{2}\\\\$

$\text{when x=}\frac{3}{4}\\\\$

$f( \frac{3}{4} ) = 4 ( \frac{3}{4} )^3+20(\frac{3}{4})^2+2(\frac{3}{4})-3=\frac{183}{16}\\$

Hence -5, 1/2, and 3/4 are not the zeroes of the given Polynomial.

Since sum of roots $=\frac{-b}{a}= \frac{-20}{4}=-5\\$

But $-5+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{4}= \frac{-15}{4}\neq-5$

Hence we do not find any relation between the coefficients and zeros.

Anyway if the given values doesn't represents the zeros then those given values will not have any relation with the coefficients of the p[polynomial.

How do you do this question?

quester [9]

Step-by-step explanation:

F(x) = ∫ₐˣ t⁷ dt

F(x) is the area under f(t) between t=a and t=x. When x=a, the width of the interval is 0, so the area is zero.

F(6) = 0, so a = 6.

F(x) = ∫₆ˣ t⁷ dt

F(6) = ∫₆⁶ t⁷ dt

F(6) = 0

Find x. (Finding an angle measure given extended triangles) Please help

Alja [10]

50+79=129
180-129=51
X=51

Explanations
Angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees. So 180-101=79 degrees
50 degrees is an opposite angle so it moves into the internal angle.
Angles in a triangle add up to 180 so (180-50-79=51)
Ans is 51 I think
