Step-by-step explanation:
Median: 29
Range: 25
IQR: 14.5
Explanations:
**Median:**
(To find the median, we need to first order all the elements)
Ordered —> 15, 18, 18, 20, 23, 28, 30, 33, 33, 34, 38, 40
(Since there are an even number of elements, we need to add the two elements in the middle and divide by 2)
Median = (28 + 30)/2 = 58/2 = 29
**Range:**
(To find the range, you just have the subtract the smallest one from the largest)
Range = 40 - 15 = 25
**IQR:**
First half of elements —> 15, 18, 18, 20, 23, 28
Second half of elements —> 30, 33, 33, 34, 38, 40
Q1 (Quartile 1) = Median of first half = (18 + 20)/2 = 38/2 = 19
Q3 (Quartile 3) = Median of second half = (33 + 34)/2 = 67/2 = 33.5
IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 33.5 - 19 = 14.5
Answer:
The steps are numbered below
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve a maximum/minimum problem, the steps are as follows.
1. Make a drawing.
2. Assign variables to quantities that change.
3. Identify and write down a formula for the quantity that is being optimized.
4. Identify the endpoints, that is, the domain of the function being optimized.
5. Identify the constraint equation.
6. Use the constraint equation to write a new formula for the quantity being optimized that is a function of one variable.
7. Find the derivative and then the critical points of the function being optimized.
8. Evaluate the y-values of the critical points and endpoints by plugging them into the function being optimized. The largest y- value is the global maximum, and the smallest y-value is the global minimum.

Answer:
n = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
"By inspection" is an appropriate method.
We are asked to compare the expressions
n·n
8·n
and find the value(s) of n that makes them equal. <em>By inspection</em>, we see that n=8 will make these expressions equal. We also know that both expressions will be zero when n=0.

More formally, we could write ...
n^2 = 8n . . . . the two formulas give the same value
n^2 -8n = 0 . . . . rearrange to standard form
n(n -8) = 0 . . . . . factor
Using the zero product rule, we know the solutions will be the values of n that make the factors zero. Those values are ...
n = 0 . . . . . makes the factor n = 0
n = 8 . . . . . makes the factor (n-8) = 0
Generally, we're not interested in "trivial" solutions (n=0), so the only value of n that is of interest is n = 8.

A lot of times, I find a graphing calculator to be a quick and easy way to find function argument values that make expressions equal.

Alternate and corresponding angles.
