Answer:
84
Step-by-step explanation:
The interquartile range is obtained using the relation :
Third quartile (Q3). - First quartile (Q1)
From. The boxplot :
Q3 = 96
Q1 = 12
Interquartile range (IQR) = Q3 - Q1 = 96 - 12 = 84
3/5 of the total responses expected = 87...
3/5x = 87
x = 87 / (3/5)
x = 87 * 5/3
x = 435/3
x = 145 <=== what was expected
Answer:
x = 27/5
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 1 = 26
Add 1 to each side
5x - 1 = 26
5x-1+1 = 26+1
5x = 27
Divide each side by 5
5x/5 = 27/5
x = 27/5
Simply 5. Absolute value is most commonly used to show that even though what is in the brackets is negative [-7] the actual value for practical purposes needed is positive 7.
