Answer:

Number of overweight citizens were 16.74 million.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a study it was concluded that out of 100 citizens 60 citizens were overweight.

If population was 279 million then we have to calculate overweight citizens.

We will apply unitary method in this question.

∵ Out of 100 citizens overweight citizens are = 60

∴ out of 1 citizens overweight were = \frac{60}{100}

∴ out of 279 millions overweight citizens were = [tex]\frac{60}{100}(279) = .06×279 = 16.74 million.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

lets find median 2, 4, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 10, 13, 17

now lets find the lower quartile median and upper quartile median

we don't include the median in the count, only use it to divide the data into the two parts,

2, 4, <u>4</u>, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 10, 13, 17

so lower quartile median is 4,

2, 4, <u>4</u>, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, <u>10</u>, 13, 17

while upper quartile median is 10

the box represents the range between the upper quartile median and lower quartile median, thus is should go from 4 to 10 with the middle line, representing the median at 8,

the whiskers represent the whole data range

thus, the answer is C
