Answer:

The lower quartile is the median of the lower half of the data.

C is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a box and whiskers plot, we show the below parameters:-

Maximum value of the data set
Minimum value of the data set
Median of the data set
Lower quartile of the data set
Upper quartile of the data set

In order to find the upper quartile, we evaluate the median of the upper half and to find the lower quartile, we find the median of the lower half of the data.

Hence, the lower quartile is the median of the lower half of the data.

Margie says the set of numbers, 0.1, -1, -2 1/4, 3, are in order from least to greatest. What is her error?

ANEK [815]

Her error was that she thought 0.1 and 1/4 were negatives but they are still positive.

She also thought the larger the negative the greatest one. The smaller negative is the greatest because it's bellow 0.

To solve this you would first need to turn 1/4 into 0.25

It would start out with -2 cause that is the least. Then -1. Now its back to positive so the least to greatest would be normal.

So the real answer would be -2, -1, 0.1, 1/4

What function is the inverse of the exponential function y = 3^x?

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

$y=\log_{3}(x)$

Step-by-step explanation:

To take the inverse of a function, swap x with y and vice versa. Therefore, the inverse of y = 3^x is x = 3^y. However, because we are being asked for a <em>function</em>, we have to rewrite this equation by isolating y. We do this with logarithms:

$x=3^y\\y = \log_{3}x$

Hence the answer.

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) X1=3 y1=7 x2=6 y2=5

2.) x2-x1= 6-3=3

3.) y2-y1= 2-7=-5

4.) 3 squared=9

5.) -5 squared= 125

6.) 125=9=134
