This is how I learned.
Place a point above the line segment. Open the compass so that you can create arcs on the line segment. One arc should intersect on the right side, the other on the left. Name these points (A and B, for example). Move the compass to one point. Use the same radius in the compass<em /><em /> and make an arc below the line segment. Then move the compass to the opposite point and make another arc (with the same radius). The two arcs should intersect. Draw a line from the point above the line segment to the new intersection and you have your perpendicular bisector.

Below are survival times (in days) of 13 guinea pigs that were injected with a bacterial infection in a medical study:

tresset_1 [31]

Outliers are data that are relatively far from other data elements.

The dataset has an outlier and the outlier is 120

The dataset is given as:

91 83 84 79 91 93 95 97 97 120 101 105 98

Sort the dataset in ascending order

79 83 84 91 91 93 95 97 97 98 101 105 120

<h3>The lower quartile (Q1)</h3>

The Q1 is then calculated as:

$Q1 = \frac{N +1}{4}th$

So, we have:

$Q1 = \frac{13 +1}{4}th$

$Q1 = \frac{14}{4}th$

$Q1 = 3.5th$

This is the average of the 3rd and the 4th element

$Q1 = \frac{1}{2} \times (84 + 91)$

$Q1 = 87.5$

<h3>The upper quartile (Q3)</h3>

The Q3 is then calculated as:

$Q3 = 3 \times \frac{N +1}{4}th$

So, we have:

$Q3 = 3 \times \frac{13 +1}{4}th$

$Q3 = 3 \times 3.5th$

$Q3 = 10.5th$

This is the average of the 10th and the 11th element.

$Q_3 =\frac12 \times (98 + 101)$

$Q_3 =99.5$

<h3>The interquartile range (IQR)</h3>

The IQR is then calculated as:

$IQR = Q_3 -Q_1$

$IQR = 99.5 - 87.5$

$IQR = 12$

Also, we have:

$IQR(1.5) = 12 \times 1.5$

$IQR(1.5) = 18$

<h3>The outlier range</h3>

The lower and the upper outlier range are calculated as follows:

$Lower = Q_1 - IQR(1.5)$

$Lower = 87.5- 18$

$Lower = 69.5$

$Upper = Q_3 + IQR(1.5)$

$Upper = 99.5 + 18$

$Upper = 117.5$

120 is greater than 117.5.

Hence, the dataset has an outlier and the outlier is 120

What is the approximate perimeter of a semicircle with a radius of 9mm?

Cerrena [4.2K]

Act like it's a whole circle and find the perimeter, then divide by 2.

P = 2 * pi * r

P = 2 * 3.14 * 9

P = 56.52

Now divide by 2:

P = 28.26

What is 1.625 rounded to the nearest hundredth

charle [14.2K]

B because the 2 is in the hundredths place and then you look behind the 2 which is a 5.

If its five or more you go up and 4 or less you go down, which means that you add one to the 2 which is 3 and you get rid of anything behind the 3 that was the originally.
