Given:

The change all in nickels and pennies.

Let the number of nickels = x

Let the number of pennies = y

Total coins = 31

so, x + y = 31

1 nickel = 5 cents

1 penny = 1 cent

The change = $0.87 = 87 cents

so, 5x + y = 87

so, we have the following system of equations:

\begin{gathered} x+y=31\rightarrow(1)\times-1 \\ 5x+y=87\rightarrow(2) \\ ------------- \\ (5x-x)+(y-y)=87-31 \\  \\ 4x=56 \\  \\ x=\frac{56}{4}=14 \\  \\ y=31-14=17 \end{gathered}

So, the number of nickels = x = 14

And the number of pennies = y = 17

Answer:

Median is the middle line of the box, Lower quartile is the number of the lower end of the box, Upper quartile is the line at the larger end of the box, Maximum is the largest number in the box plot (end of right whisker), Minimum is the lowest number (end of left whisker).

Step-by-step explanation:

32.

Median: 88

Maximum (largest number): 102

Minimum (lowest number): 38

Interquartile range:

96 - 72 = 24

b.

25 % higher

75 % lower?

c.

You can see the range is more towards the right of the box meaning they have higher scores, and that the median or middle is a higher number so it means that most of the students understood and did well on the test.

???.

First quartile: 16

Second: 19

Third: 20

Range: 4

34.  Since they are already in least to greatest order, all we have to do is graph it!

85 - 99 is 2

100 - 114 is 1

115 - 129 is 5

130 - 144 is 6
