Eddi Din [679]

Answer: b. Only statement (ii) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given five-number summary of the ages of passengers on a cruise ship is listed below.

Min 1 $Q_1$ 20 Median 29 $Q_3$ 38 Max 80

Inter-quartile range = $IQR=Q_3-Q_1=38-20=18$

According to the 1.5(IQR) criterion for outliers : An data value is an outlier if it lies below $Q_1 - 1.5(IQR)$ or above $Q_3 + 1.5(IQR)$ .

Here , $Q_1 - 1.5(IQR) =20-1.5(18)=-7$

$Q_3 + 1.5(IQR)=38+1.5(18)=65$

Since the minimum value> $Q_1 - 1.5(IQR)$ ( ∵ 1 > -7)

It means there is no value below $Q_1 - 1.5(IQR)$ , so there is no low -outlier.

⇒ Statement (i) "here is at least one passenger whose age is a low outlier. " is false.

But the maximum value > $Q_3 + 1.5(IQR)$ (∵ 85 > 65)

It means there are values above $Q_3 + 1.5(IQR)$ .

⇒Statement (ii) "There is at least one passenger whose age is a high outlier" is true.

Hence, the correct answer is b. Only statement (ii) is correct.

Simple geometry please help<br><br> Find KL. Round to the nearest hundredth.

vivado [14]

Answer:

KL ≈ 1.94

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle

cos48° = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{JL}{KL}$ = $\frac{1.3}{KL}$ ( multiply both sides by KL )

KL × cos48° = 1.3 ( divide both sides by cos48° )

KL = $\frac{1.3}{cos48}$ ≈ 1.94 ( to the nearest hundredth )
