Question:-

Reika [66]

${\huge \underline{{ \fbox \color{red}{A}}{\fbox \color{green}{n}}{\fbox \color{purple}{s}}{\fbox \color{brown}{w}}{\fbox \color{yellow}{e}}{\fbox \color{gray}{r } }}}$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \bf \red{ \dfrac{1}{2} + \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{3}{4} }$

Step by step explanation :-

The only thing you have to do is add the numerator to the denominator, in this case you have to add the first ones from the front, which can be these 2+1/4, which would result in 3/4, and this is called the Commutative Property.

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \boxed{ \bf \gray{ \dfrac{1}{2} + \dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{1}{4} + \dfrac{1}{2} }}$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \boxed{ \bf \green{\dfrac{2 + 1}{4} = \dfrac{1 + 2}{4} }}$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \boxed {\bf \blue{\dfrac{3}{4} = \dfrac{3}{4}} }$

Answer :- The answer is 3/4

¿What is commutative property?

It is to change different ways in order of the addends the result would be the same.

Example :-

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \boxed {\bf \blue{\dfrac{a}{b} + \dfrac{c}{d}} = {\dfrac{c}{d} + \dfrac{a}{b}} }$

I hope I've helped : )

KatRina [158]

Answer:

Explain the circumstances for which the interquartile range is the preferred measure of dispersion

Interquartile range is preferred when the distribution of data is highly skewed (right or left skewed) and when we have the presence of outliers. Because under these conditions the sample variance and deviation can be biased estimators for the dispersion.

What is an advantage that the standard deviation has over the interquartile range?

The most important advantage is that the sample variance and deviation takes in count all the observations in order to calculate the statistic.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The interquartile range is defined as the difference between the upper quartile and the first quartile and is a measure of dispersion for a dataset.

$IQR= Q_3 -Q_1$

The standard deviation is a measure of dispersion obatined from the sample variance and is given by:

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

Solution to the problem

Otto used 6 cups of whole wheat flour and x cups of white flour in the recipe. What is the equation that can be used to find the

nadezda [96]

Y = 6 + x

We can use this equation to find the total amount of flour that Otto used in the recipe.

The constraints on 'x' and 'y' are that they must both be positive, because we cannot have a negative amount of flour.

<span>And a restraint something like 50 cups of flour total because one person making a recipe won't use that many cups of flour.</span>
