AB = AU + UB = 20x + 108 + 273 = 20x + 381

\cfrac{AU}{AB} =\cfrac{UV}{BC}    \\  \\  \cfrac{20x+108}{20x+381} =\cfrac{444}{703}   \\  \\ 703(20x+108)=444(20x+381)\\\\14060x+75924=8880x+169164 \\  \\ 14060x-8880x = 169164 - 75924 \\  \\ 5180x = 93240 \\  \\ x=93240/5180 \\  \\ x=18

the local hardware store wants to increase their inventory. Last year 15 electric screwdrivers cost them 300.how much would 45 s
Harman [31]
One way of doing this is to write the equation of ratios (15 screwdrivers / 45 screwdrivers) = ($300 / x).    Solve this equation for x.  To do this, you might try multiplying both sides of this equation by x to eliminate fractions.

Another way is to obtain the unit cost of each screwdriver and then multiply the result by 45 screwdrivers.

Answer:

30.5 ; 49 ; 27 ; 50 ; 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the first and third quartiles. Determine the second decile and the eighth decile. Determine the 67th percentile

Given the ordered data :

13 13 13 20 26 27 29 32 34 34 35 35 36 37 38 41 41 41 42 44 46 47 48 50 53 55 56 62 67 82

Sample size, n = 30

The first quartile ;Q1

Q1 = 1/4(n+1)th term

Q1 = 31/4 = 7.75th term

Q1 = (29+32)/2

Q1 = 30.5

Q3 ;

Q3 = 3/4(n+1)th term

Q3 = 3(31)/4 = 23.25 th term

Q3 = (48 + 50) /2 = 49

2nd decile :

0.2 * (nth term

0.2 * 30 = 6th term = 27

8th decile :

0.8 * 30 = 24 th term

= 50

67th percentile :

0.67 * (n+1)th term

0.67 * 31 = 20.77

= (44 + 46) / 2

= 45
