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

s. The number line goes from 6 to 30. For the weights of dogs in shelter A, the whiskers range from 8 to 30, and the box ranges from 17 to 28. A line divides the box at 21. For shelter B, the whiskers range from 10 to 28, and the box ranges from 16 to 20. A line divides the box at 18. Weights of Dogs in Shelter B Which is true of the data in the box plots? Select three choices. The median weight for shelter A is greater than that for shelter B. The median weight for shelter B is greater than that for shelter A. The data for shelter A are a symmetric data set. The data for shelter B are a symmetric data set. The interquartile range of shelter A is greater than the interquartile range of shelter B.

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.

VikaD [51]

Answer:

7.75 inches or 7 3/4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 11 9/16 from 19 3/8.

19 6/16 - 11 9/16

18 22/16 - 11 9/16

7 13/16

Now subtract the 1/16

7 13/16 - 1/16

7 12/16 = 7 3/4 = 7.75

Solve the equation<br>12E − 4 = 0
Scorpion4ik [409]
This could get complicated.  Please try to follow my steps carefully:

Begin by writing the equation to be solved:    <u>12E - 4 = 0</u>

Add 4 to each side of the equation:  12E = 4

Divide each side by 12:                      E = 4/12 = 1/3 .

Write the coordinates for the given dilation
kenny6666 [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

D_o of Y = (-3/2, -1)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given three points on the graph:

X (4, 0)

Y (3, 2)

Z (2, 2)

and the scale factor of dilation which is -\frac{1}{2}.

Given that, we are to find the coordinates of Y after dilation. To find that, we will multiply the coordinates of the point Y with the scale factor.

Y =  (-\frac{1}{2} × 3 , (-\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 2)

Y = (-\frac{3}{2} , -1)
