<span>Answer:
Roma Sherry drove 330 miles from her hometown to Tucson. During her return trip, she was able to increase her speed by 11 mph. If her return trip took 1 hour less time, find her original speed and her speed returning home.
:
Let s = original speed
then
(s+11) = return speed
:
Write a time equation: Time = distance%2Fspeed
:
Original time = return time + 1 hr
330%2Fs = 330%2F%28%28s%2B11%29%29 + 1
:
Multiply equation by s(s+11) and you have:
330(s+11) = 330s + s(s+11)
:
330s + 3630 = 330s + s^2 + 11s
:
0 = 330s - 330s + s^2 + 11s - 3630
:
A quadratic equation:
s^2 + 11s - 3630 = 0
Factor this to:
(s + 66)(s - 55) = 0
Positive solution
s = 55 mph is original speed.
:
Find the time
330/55 = 6 hr, original time
and
330/66 = 5 hrs, faster time; confirms our solution.</span>
1 ounce --> ?
1/5 --> 1/25
i chaged the freactions to decimal this is what i got,
1ounce --> ?

Yes they can! Just because two plots have the same IQR and range, does not mean that the rest of the data has to be the exact same. For example, the median.
