Hello!

Let's simplify the tens in the denominators down to 2.

Jasmine: 2.4:2

Aaron: 3:2

Lucian: 2:2

Gretchen: 14:2

We want to find the person who has the lowest amount of blue marbles in terms of the red marbles. This means they have the smallest amount of blue marbles out of red marbles. As most of them are greater, we just look for the smallest number of blue marbles out of 2.

As you can see, C. Lucian has the lowest ratio.

I hope this helps!

The total amount of money accrued ( principal and interest ) in 35 years is $570.78.

<h3>What is the total amount accrued?</h3>

The formula for compound interest is expressed as;

A = P( 1 + r/t )^(n×t)

Given the data in the question;

Principal P = $200
Rate r = 3% = 3/100 = 0.03
Compounded monthly n = 12
Time t = 35
Amount accrued in 35 years A = ?

Plug the given values into the equation above.

A = P( 1 + r/n )^(n×t)

A = 200( 1 + 0.03/12 )^(12×35)

A = 200( 1 + 0.0025 )^(420)

A = 200( 1.0025 )^(420)

A = 200( 2.85390914 )

A = $570.78

Therefore, the total amount of money accrued ( principal and interest ) in 35 years is $570.78.

Answer:

The IQR is given by:

$IQR = Q_3 -Q_1 = 28-18= 10$

If we want to find any possible outliers we can use the following formulas for the limits:

$Lower= Q_1 - 1.5 IQR$

$Upper= Q_3 + 1.5 IQR$

And if we find the lower limt we got:

$Lower= Q_1 - 1.5 IQR= 18-1.5*10 = 3$

$Upper= Q_3 + 1.5 IQR= 28+1.5*10= 43$

So then the left boundary for this case would be 3 days

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following 5 number summary from the data of 144 values:

Minimum: 9 days

Q1: 18 days

Median: 21 days

Q3: 28 days

Maximum: 56 days

The IQR is given by:

$IQR = Q_3 -Q_1 = 28-18= 10$

If we want to find any possible outliers we can use the following formulas for the limits:

$Lower= Q_1 - 1.5 IQR$

$Upper= Q_3 + 1.5 IQR$

And if we find the lower limt we got:

$Lower= Q_1 - 1.5 IQR= 18-1.5*10 = 3$

$Upper= Q_3 + 1.5 IQR= 28+1.5*10= 43$

So then the left boundary for this case would be 3 days

Complete the square to factor X^2 +10X=-8

ella [17]

Answer: $x=\sqrt{17}-5$ and $x = -\sqrt{17}-5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

The given equation is :

$x^{2} +10x = -8$

Adding 8 in both sides, it will become

$x^{2} +10x + 8 = -8 +8$

$x^{2} +10x + 8 = 0$

To make it perfect square, we need to add 25 and subtract 25

$x^{2} +10x + 8 +25-25= 0$

$x^2+10x+25+8-25=0$

$(x+5)^2+8-25=0$

$(x+5)^2-17=0$

Adding 17 in both sides

$(x+5)^2=17$

taking square root

$x+5=\sqrt{17}$

So,

$x=\sqrt{17}-5$ and $x = -\sqrt{17}-5$ .. Answer

Hope it will help :)
