What does this mean? A) That the median number of points off was 10. B) That half the students scored 20 points higher. C) That the highest grade was 20 points above the median. D) That the middle 50% of the scores were 20 points apart.

Hi there!

The interquartile is the upper quartile and lower quartile subtracted.
As the pictures show below.
The interquartile range (IQR) limits the range to the 50% of the values.
So I think the answer is D. That the middle 50% of the scores were 20 points apart.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

D) That the middle 50% of the scores were 20 points apart.

Step-by-step explanation:

Interquartile range measures the skewness using 50% of the data. It is the difference between the third quartile and the first quartile.

A) this option is incorrect as it does not define the Interquartile range.

B) No, it is the definition of median.

C) No, it does not define the interquartile range.

D) Yes, it is correct answer.

Find the population variance of: 4 6 8 9 9 <br><br> round to the nearest hundredth
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the population variance, we first need the mean:

\bar{x}=\frac{4+6+8+9+9}{5}=\frac{36}{5}=7.2 so the mean is 7.2. To find the population variance (which is almost exactly the same as the sample variance except for a small difference in the denominators of the formula) we have to take each number minus the mean, and then square the difference. Add together all these squared numbers and then divide by the number of numbers. Like this:

(4-7.2)^2=10.24\\(6-7.2)^2=1.44\\(8-7.2)^2=.64\\(9-7.2)^2=3.24\\(9-7.2)^2=3.24

Add together those numbers and divide them by 5:

\sigma=\frac{10.24+1.44+.64+3.24+3.24}{5}=\frac{18.8}{5}=3.76

Ira Lisetskai [31]
A shape that is similar to another shape will be enlarged by a scale factor. 
Each corresponding sides should give the same scale factor

Side GI corresponds to side JL
Side GH corresponds to side JK
Side HI corresponds to side KL

The correspond sides whose length are given is 
GH = 4 and JK = 8

Side JK is twice longer than GH

All the other sides of triangle JKL are twice longer than triangle GHI, so we want that the side JL to be twice of the sides GI

Side GI = 6
Side JL = 6 × 2 = 12

Answer: y = 12
