$1 \frac{3}{4}$ x 6 (or $\frac{6}{1}$

Change 1 3/4 to an improper fraction = $\frac{7}{4}$

$\frac{7}{4}$ x $\frac{6}{1}$ = $\frac{42}{4}$ = 10 $\frac{2}{4}$ cups
Reduce the answer and get 10 $\frac{1}{2}$ cups

According to my calculations the answer is 19.5 or 19.50 you can pick either one but your teacher will probably want the first.

Coach Evans recorded the height, in inches of each player on his team. The results are shown.

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Team heights (inches):

61, 57, 63, 62, 60, 64, 60, 62, 63

To find: IQRs (interquartile ranges) of the heights for the team

Solution:

A quartile divides the number of terms in the data into four more or less equal parts that is quarters.

For a set of data, a number for which 25% of the data is less than that number is known as the first quartile $(Q_1)$

For a set of data, a number for which 75% of the data is less than that number is known as the third quartile $(Q_3)$

Terms in arranged in ascending order:

$57,60,60,61,62,62,63,63,64$

Number of terms = 9

As number of terms is odd, exclude the middle term that is 62.

$Q_1$ is median of terms $57,60,60,61$

Number of terms (n) = 4

Median = $\frac{(\frac{n}{2})^{th} +(\frac{n}{2}+1)^{th} }{2} =\frac{2^{nd}+3^{rd}}{2} =\frac{60+60}{2}=\frac{120}{2}=60$

So, $Q_1=60$

So, 25% of the heights of a team is less than 60 inches

$Q_3$ is the median of terms $62,63,63,64$

Median = $\frac{(\frac{n}{2})^{th} +(\frac{n}{2}+1)^{th} }{2} =\frac{2^{nd}+3^{rd}}{2} =\frac{63+63}{2}=\frac{126}{2}=63$

So, $Q_3=63$

So, 75% of the heights of a team is less than 63 inches

Interquartile range = $Q_3-Q_1=63-60=3$

The interquartile range is a measure of variability on dividing a data set into quartiles.

The interquartile range is the range of the middle 50% of the terms in the data.

So, 3 is the range of the middle 50% of the heights of the students.

Patrice user a $15 gift certificate when she purchased a pair of sandals. After 8% sales tax was applied to the price of the san

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

The sandals cost before tax $25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the sandals cost before tax $x.

So, after giving an 8% tax the price will be $x(1 + \frac{8}{100}) = 1.08x$ .

If the $15 gift certificate on that after tax price and the final cost of the sandals becomes $12, then

1.08x - 15 = 12

⇒ 1.08x = 27

⇒ x = $25

Hence, the sandals cost before tax $25. (Answer)
