Answer:
given a data set of 33 unique whole number observation,its five number sumary is [16, 29, 40 ,54, 67]
Step-by-step explanation:
The p-th percentile in an ordered (from low to high) data set is a value such that p% of the data is less than that value. The quartiles of a data set are the 25th, 50th and 75th percentiles. (The 25th percentile is usually called the first quartile, the 50th percentile is usually called the median, and the 75th percentile is usually called the third quartile.)
The formula for finding the location (or position) of the (approximate) pth percentile in an ordered (from low to high) data set is
L
p=(n+1).p/100
For example, in the data set [2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18]
the (approximate) 60th percentile is located at position
L
60=(9+1).60/100=6
that is, the sixth data point (the value 12) is at the (approximate) 60th percentile.(Actually, only 55.6% of the data is below a 12.)
Hello!
To solve this, first perform the opposite operation for the last operation (on the left side) on both sides. The last operation of the left side is squaring. Therefore, square root both sides.
Please note that you must include ±. This is because the square root of 64 can be either positive or negative, as a square of either a positive or negative number is positive.
Now, add 9 to both sides.
There are 2 solutions from here. One comes from adding 8, and the other subtracting 8. Therefore, the two solutions are:
y = 9 + 8 = 17
y = 9 - 8 = 1
Therefore, your two solutions are 17 and 1.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
A: This polynomial has a degree of 2 , so the equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two or fewer roots.
B: The quadratic equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two real solutions, x=−2/3 or x=1/4 , and therefore has two real roots.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 12x^2 + 5x - 2.
Since this is a quadratic equation, or a polynomial of second degree, one can easily conclude that this equation will have at most 2 roots. At most 2 roots mean that the function can have either 2 roots at maximum or less than 2 roots. Therefore, in the A category, 2nd option is the correct answer (This polynomial has a degree of 2 , so the equation 12x^2 + 5x − 2 = 0 has two or fewer roots).
To find the roots of f(x), set f(x) = 0. Therefore:
12x^2 + 5x - 2 = 0. Solving the question using the mid term breaking method shows that 12*2=24. The factors of 24 whose difference is 5 are 8 and 3. Therefore:
12x^2 + 8x - 3x - 2 = 0.
4x(3x + 2) -1(3x+2) = 0.
(4x-1)(3x+2) = 0.
4x-1 = 0 or 3x+2 = 0.
x = 1/4 or x = -2/3.
It can be seen that f(x) has two distinct real roots. Therefore, in the B category, 1st Option is the correct answer (The quadratic equation 12x2+5x−2=0 has two real solutions, x=−2/3 or x=1/4 , and therefore has two real roots)!!!
