A, the interquartile range is 10, does not fit.

The interquartile range is found by subtracting the upper quartile and the lower quartile; in a box-and-whisker plot these are the outer edges of the box. In this case, they are 40 and 20; 40-20 = 20, not 10.

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a box plot the left side of box represents Q₁, right side of box represents Q₃ and the line inside the box represents the median.

A line is extended from the left and right side of the box. The left end pint of the line represents the lower limit and right end point of the line represent the upper limit.

From the given it is noticed that the lower limit of the data is 10 and the upper limit of the data is 70. The value of Q₁ is 20 and the value of Q₃ is 40. The median of the data is 30.

The interquartile range (IQR) is the difference between third quartile and first quartile.

$IQR=Q_3-Q_1$

$IQR=40-20=20$

Therefore the IQR is 20 and option A does not describes the data set. So, option A is correct.

In order to answer this question, we use the concept of ratio and proportion wherein we use the equation,
R1 / T2 = R2 / T1
where R is for rate and T is for time. Substituting the known values to the equation,
(600)/x = (400)/ 20
The value of x from the equation is 30. Thus, it will take 30 hours if the rate was adjusted to 400 gallons per minute.

Answer:

0.75s , 15ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Derivatives,

Notice that the above function is a quadratic curve, meaning it has either a maximum or minimum point, which is the turning point and that is what we are solving for to find a 'max' or 'min'.

$\frac{d}{dt}$ h = $\frac{d}{dt}$ (-16t² + 24t + 6)

$\frac{dh}{dt}$ = -32t + 24

At turning points (max/min),

the gradient is 0 meaning,

$\frac{dh}{dt}$ = -32t + 24 = 0.

t = 24/32 = 3/4

so time = 0.75 second

Substitute this t into the function,

we get h = -16 * 0.75 *0.75 + 24 * 0.75 + 6 = 15ft
