Step-by-step explanation:
I have used substitution method here to find the value of x and y.
Consider a sample with data values of 27, 24, 21, 16, 30, 33, 28, and 24. Compute the 20th, 25th, 65th, and 75th percentiles. 20

Answer:
--- 20th percentile
--- 25th percentile
--- 65th percentile
--- 75th percentile
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
27, 24, 21, 16, 30, 33, 28, and 24.
N = 8
First, arrange the data in ascending order:
Arranged data: 16, 21, 24, 24, 27, 28, 30, 33
Solving (a): The 20th percentile
This is calculated as:






This is then calculated as:





Solving (b): The 25th percentile
This is calculated as:






This is then calculated as:





Solving (c): The 65th percentile
This is calculated as:






This is then calculated as:





Solving (d): The 75th percentile
This is calculated as:






This is then calculated as:





Cos(68)=z/24
Z=24cos(68)

Answer:
a. y = -1/2x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer choice can be determined by finding the slope of the line. The slope is the ratio of rise to run.
__
<h3>slope</h3>
The x-intercept is 4 units left of the y-axis. As the line "runs" those 4 units, it "rises" -2 units to intercept the y-axis at -2. The slope of the line is ...
m = rise/run = -2/4 = -1/2
In the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line, the slope is the coefficient of x. This information is sufficient to let us choose the first answer choice.
__
<h3>equation</h3>
The slope-intercept equation is ...
y = mx +b . . . . . . . slope m, y-intercept b
We know the slope is -1/2, and the y-intercept is where x=0, at y=-2. Then the equation is ...
y = -1/2x -2 . . . . . matches choice A

<em>Additional comment</em>
When answering multiple-choice questions, you only need to do enough work to tell which answers are <em>not</em> viable.
When we plot the points, we see that the line has negative slope. (eliminates choice C). The slope is shallow, rather than steep (the x-intercept is farther from the origin than the y-intercept), so the magnitude of the slope is less than 1 and choices B and D are eliminated.
