Let

x--------> amount of erasers that Sari has

y--------> amount of erasers that Sam has


we know that


x=3y-------> equation 1

x+y=28-----> equation 2


Substitute equation 1 in equation 2

[3y]+y=28\\ 4y=28\\ y=28/4\\ y=7


find the value of x

x=3y\\ x=3*7\\ x=21


therefore


the answer is

Sari has 21 erasers

The Box-and-Whisker Plot represents the ages of 40 people who responded to a telephone survey.
kondaur [170]

Answer:

'A' is true; theoretically, 50% of the data items reside between the first and third quartiles (40 and 67.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Range is 84-28 which is 56

Median is 51

1.5 x Interquartile Range (IQR) = 1.5(67.5-40) which equals 41.25

Q1 is 40

Q1 - IQR = -1.25

Low outliers are below -1.25 - 41.25; there are not data items below -42
