Answer:
Statement A is correct about Sam's box and whisker plot.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given a box plot and we are asked to find out true statement according to the box plot.
Since we know data represented by box plot is divided in four equal parts.
Upon looking at our box plot we can see that our data is symmetric. It's median is 15, which means half the math assignments have less than 15 problems and half of the math assignments have more than 15 problems.
Interquartile range represents 50% values of data and it is the difference between upper quartile and lower quartile. IQR is not affected by outliers.

Upon substituting given values from box plot we get,

From IQR we can conclude that half of the assignments contained 15 problems or fewer.Therefore, option A is the correct choice.
Aye man , who wants to give me points
It will be 16[tex] 16^{2} = 256
Given the equation:

(a) You can identify that the student applied the Subtraction Property of Equality by subtraction 3 from both sides of the equation:

However, the student made a mistake when adding the numbers on the right side.
Since you have two numbers with the same sign on the right side of the equation, you must add them, not subtract them and use the same sign in the result. Then, the steps to add them are:
- Add their Absolute values (their values without the negative sign).
- Write the sum with the negative sign.
Then:

(b) The correct procedure is:
1. Apply the Subtraction Property of Equality by subtracting 3 from both sides (as you did in the previous part):

2. Apply the Multiplication Property of Equality by multiplying both sides of the equation by 6:

Hence, the answers are:
(a) The student made a mistake by adding the numbers -18 and -3:

(b) The value of "x" should be:
