Answer: 15 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Easy, showing work,
using the method FOIL (First,Outer,Inner, Last)
Take, (x+3)(x+5) and multiply,
First,
x*x=
Outer,
x*5=5x
Inner,
3*x=3x
Last,
3*5=15
Add the terms together,
+8x+15 (
+5x+3x+15)
Thus, your answer.
The median (half-above and half-below) could not have changed, because "corrected value was still lower than any other salary" does not change the position of that observation (still least) in the sorted list of salaries.
