I'll give you an example:
Find the first and third quartiles using this set of data - 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 15, 16, 20, 21.

Step 1: Put the numbers in order.
3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 15, 16, 20, 21.
Step 2: Make a mark in the center of the data:
3, 5, 7, 8, 9, | 11, 15, 16, 20, 21.
Step 3: Place parentheses around the numbers above and below the mark you made in Step 2–it makes Q1 and Q3 easier to spot.
(3, 5, 7, 8, 9), | (11, 15, 16, 20, 21).
Step 4: Find Q1 and Q3
Q1 is the median (the middle) of the lower half of the data, and Q3 is the median (the middle) of the upper half of the data.
(3, 5, 7, 8, 9), | (11, 15, 16, 20, 21). Q1 = 7 and Q3 = 16.

The first quartile, denoted by Q1 , is the median of the lower half of the data set. This means that about 25% of the numbers in the data set lie below Q1 and about 75% lie above Q1 .The third quartile, denoted by Q3 , is the median of the upper half of the data set. This means that about 75% of the numbers in the data set lie below Q3 and about 25% lie above Q3

In the given figure, measure HK= 50° and measure GKL is 50° which statement is true?
Minchanka [31]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is a because the measure of angle KGH is 25 degrees since it is an inscribed angle. Angle GKJ is 130 degrees because angle GKL is 50 degrees. Therefore angle J is equal to 25 degrees which makes the triangle an isosceles triangle since angle J and angle KGH are equal to one another.

A new truck costs $32,000 if the truck is worth 24,500 after three years write an explicit formula for the value of the car afte
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

depreciation for three years = 32000 - 24500 = $ 7500

depreciation per year = 7500/3 = $ 2500

depreciation % = (2500/32000)*100 = 7.81%

Value of truck after n years = 32000 * (7.81%)*n

18% of the the students at a school are in year 8 and 16% of the students are in year 9. If the school has 126 tera 8 students,
yarga [219]

Answer:

112

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of all percentage questions is: the chunk= (some percentage) (of the whole), or c=p*w

We know that 18% of students are 8th grade and that is 126 students, so p = 0.18 and c=126 (126 students are 18% of the whole school)

126 = (0.18)w, divide both sides by 0.18

126/(0.18) = w = 700

9th graders are 16% of the school or 16% of 700 students

c = (0.16) 700 = 112 students

У=-3x+3<br> y = -9x + 15
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

(2, - 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = - 3x + 3 → (2)

y = - 9x + 15 → (2)

Substitute y = - 3x + 3 into (2)

- 3x + 3 = - 9x + 15 ( add 9x to both sides )

6x + 3 = 15 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

6x = 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (1)

y = - 3(2) + 3 = - 6 + 3 = - 3

solution is (2, - 3 )
