Answer:

D. The new box plot will be positively skewed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a box plot which represents the the heights (in feet) of a sample of pine trees.

We are asked to determine that affect of adding a pine tree that is 140 feet tall to the sample.

We can see from our box plot that the tallest pine tree is 75 feet and 140 is approximately 2 times greater than 75.

After adding the a tree that is 140 feet tall, the maximum height will be 140 and our right whisker will be at point 140.

Since we know that for a positive skewed data, the tail of the distribution is longer on the right hand side.

As 140 is a extreme positive outlier for our given data set, therefore, after adding a tree that is 140 feet tall our box plot will be positively skewed and option D is the correct choice.

The graph represents a person's heart rate in beats per minute during 30 minutes of exercise.
Andrej [43]

Looking at the graph closely we can see that the heart rate increases from 0 to 6 min then became steady from 6 to 25 min then finally decreases from 25 to 30 min. Therefore the correct answer is:

“The heart rate increases for 6 minutes, remains constant for 19 minutes, and then gradually decreases for 5 minutes.”

 

In real life cardiac exercises, we can interpret that the period from 0 to 6 min is the period where the person is still warming up thus leading to an increase in heart rate. At 6 min, the person is fully warmed up hence reaching a stable heart rate. Then at 25 min, the person starts cooling down which means that the exercise is ending soon.

Answer:

87 / 100 I do believe will be your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 is the greatest common divisor of 87 and 100, and therefore the result can't be further reduced. I hope this helps!
