Lets put the numbers in order...
6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,11,30

Q1 = 7
Q2 = (8 + 9) / 2 = 17/2 = 8.5
Q3 = 10
IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 10 - 7 = 3 <== so the interquartile range is 3

mean absolute deviation...
the mean of our data is 10.5

now we subtract the mean from every data point....and find its absolute value

6 - 10.5 = -4.5.....| -4.5| = 4.5
7 - 10.5 = -3.5.....| -3.5| = 3.5
7 - 10.5 = -3.5.....|-3.5| = 3.5
8 - 10.5 = - 2.5....|-2.5| = 2.5
8 - 10.5 = -2.5....|-2.5| = 2.5
9 - 10.5 = -1.5....|-1.5| = 1.5
9 - 10.5 = -1.5....|-1.5| = 1.5
10 - 10.5 = -0.5..| -0.5| = 0.5
11 - 10.5 = 0.5...|0.5| = 0.5
30 - 10.5 = 19.5..|19.5| = 19.5

now we take the average of these numbers
(4.5+3.5+3.5+2.5+2.5+1.5 + 1.5 + 0.5+0.5+19.5) / 10 =
40/10 = 4 <== ur mean absolute deviation

In summary : 
ur interquartie range (IQR) of ur data set is 3
ur mean absolute deviation (MAD) of ur data set is 4

A fraction is less than 1. Choose a counterexample that will prove this conjecture false​
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

1st option

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are trying to prove that not all fractions are less than 1. So we have to choose an example in which the fraction is more than 1.

1) \frac{8}{7}  = 1 \frac{1}{7}

This fraction is greater than 1 hence it can prove that the conjecture is false.

2) ½ is lesser than 1 and will not prove that the conjecture is false.

Determine the type and number of solutions of 4x^2-5x+1=0.
Arlecino [84]
<span>4x² - 5x + 1 = 0
a = 4; b = - 5, c = 1
</span>Δ = b² - 4.a.c
Δ = (-5)² - 4.4.1
Δ = 25 - 16
Δ = 9
<span>
x = - b </span>± √Δ / 2.a
x =  \frac{-5\± \sqrt{9} }{2*4}
x =  \frac{-5\±3}{8}
x' =  \frac{-5-3}{8} =  \frac{-8}{8} = -1
x' = \frac{-5+3}{8} = \frac{-2}{8} (\div2) = \frac{-1}{4}


A. Two real solutions (x' = -1 and x'' = -1/4)

Solve 4 over x minus 4 equals the quantity of x over x minus 4, minus four thirds for x and determine if the solution is extrane
Vinil7 [7]
I'm thinking this is what the problem looks like: \frac{4}{x-4}= \frac{x}{x-4}- \frac{4}{3}.  The first thing to do is to move the \frac{x}{x-4} over to the other side because it has a common denominator with the other side.  Doing that and at the same time combining them over their common denominator looks like this: \frac{4-x}{x-4}= -\frac{4}{3}.  The best way to solve for x now is to cross-multiply to get 3(4-x)=-4(x-4).  Distributing through the parenthesis is 12 - 3x = -4x + 16.  Solving for x gives us x = 4.  Of course when we sub a 4 back in for x we get real problems, don't we?  Dividing by zero breaks every rule in math that there ever was! So, yes, the solution is extraneous.
