It would be 7 out of 11 because there are 8 marbles and you only took out one white marble

The box plots show the weights, in pounds, of the dogs in two different animal shelters. Weights of Dogs in Shelter A 2 box plot

katovenus [111]

Answer:

1) The median weight for shelter A is greater than that for shelter B.

True, the median weight for shelter A is 21 pounds as compared to the 18 pounds median weight for shelter B.

4) The data for shelter B are a symmetric data set.

True, the median is exactly 2 pounds away from each quartile which means it is symmetric.

5) The interquartile range of shelter A is greater than the interquartile range of shelter B.

True, the interquartile range of shelter A is 11 pounds as compared to the 4 pounds interquartile range of shelter B.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two box-plots, a box plot basically shows 5 statistical characteristics of a data set and they are

1. minimum value

2. Lower quartile

3. Median value

4. Upper quartile

5. Maximum value

Box-plot of dogs in shelter A:

The whiskers range from 8 to 30

Which means that the range is = 30 - 8 = 22

The box ranges from 17 to 28

Which means that the interquartile range is = 28 - 17 = 11

21 - 17 = 4

28 - 21 = 9

The median is not equal distance away from each quartile which means that the box-plot is not symmetric.

A line divides the box at 21

Which means that the median is = 21

Box-plot of dogs in shelter B:

The whiskers range from 10 to 28

Which means that the range is = 28 - 10 = 20

The box ranges from 16 to 20

Which means that the interquartile range is = 20 - 16 = 4

18 - 16 = 2

20 - 18 = 2

The median is exactly 2 pounds away from each quartile which means it is symmetric.

A line divides the box at 18

Which means that the median is = 18

Which is true of the data in the box plots?

1) The median weight for shelter A is greater than that for shelter B.

True, the median weight for shelter A is 21 pounds as compared to the 18 pounds median weight for shelter B.

2) The median weight for shelter B is greater than that for shelter A.

False

3) The data for shelter A are a symmetric data set.

False

4) The data for shelter B are a symmetric data set.

True

5) The interquartile range of shelter A is greater than the interquartile range of shelter B.

True, the interquartile range of shelter A is 11 pounds as compared to the 4 pounds interquartile range of shelter B.

A research paper recommends using Poisson process to model the number of failures in commercial water pipes The paper also gives estimates the failure rate in units of failures per 100 miles of pipe per day; for four different types of pipe and for many different years_ For example, for cast iron pipe in 2005, the authors' estimate is the failure rate is 0.0864 failures per 100 miles per day: Suppose a town had 2500 miles of cast iron pipe underground in 2005 What is the probability of at least two failures

In how many ways can a quality-control engineer select a sample of3 transistors for testing frm a batch of 100 transistors?

Advocard [28]

Answer:

161700 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the transistors are chosen is not important. This means that we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

In this question:

3 transistors from a set of 100. So

$C_{100,3} = \frac{100!}{3!(100-3)!} = 161700$

So 161700 ways.
