In Statistics, percentiles are a representation of the relative position of a particular value within a data set. For example, if your exam score is better than k% of the rest of the class. That means your exam score is at the kth percentile.
If your test score is at the 32nd percentile it can be interpreted as follows:
-Your test score is better than only 32 percent of the other scores recorded for the test.
-32 percent of the people who took the admission test have scores which are lower than yours.

Can you give me more information on the question, so i can make sure that i give you the correct answer . I think its A but not totally for sure
Answer:
The length of the rectangle (l) = 3 feet
The width of the rectangle (W) = 10 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>
<em>Given that the width of the rectangle = (x+1) feet</em>
<em>Given that the length of the rectangle = ( x-6) feet</em>
<em>The area of the rectangle = 30 square feet</em>
<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>
We know that the area of the rectangle
= length ×width
30 = ( x+1)(x-6)
30 = x² - 6x + x -6
⇒ x² - 5 x - 6 = 30
⇒ x² - 5 x - 6 - 30 =0
⇒ x² - 5 x - 36 =0
x² - 9 x +4x - 36 =0
x (x-9) +4 ( x-9) =0
( x+4 ) ( x-9) =0
( x+4 ) =0 and ( x-9) =0
x =-4 and x =9
<u><em>Step(iii):-</em></u>
we have to choose x =9
The length of the rectangle (l) = x-6 = 9-6 =3
The width of the rectangle (W) = x+1 = 9 +1 = 10
<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>
The length of the rectangle (l) = 3 feet
The width of the rectangle (W) = 10 feet
Applying the rule of modulus for given values, the expression will result to 20.
<h3>What is Modulus or Absolute Values</h3>
The modulus of a value for example |a|=a if a is greater than or equal to zero
and also
|a|=-a if a is less than zero
In the expression given; the modulus of -6 written as
|-6|=-(-6) this is because the value is less than zero
The modulus of 2 written as; |2|=2 this is because the value is greater than zero. and;
|The modulus of -14 written as; |-14|= -(-14) since the value is less than zero.
Hence, we can rewrite the expression as;
we deal with multiplication first following the rules of BODMAS
2×-(-6)-3×2+[-(-14)]
2×6-6+14
and thus adding values
12+14-6
and finally we subtract;
26-6
which will results to the solution of 20.
