Answer:
D. 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Interquartile range is the difference between the upper quartile value (Q3) and the lower quartile value (Q1).
In a box plot, Q1 is located at the beginning of the edge of the rectangular box from our left, while the Q3 is located at the end of the edge of the rectangular box to our right.
Interquartile range for City A = 70 - 40 = 30
Interquartile range for City B = 80 - 40
Therefore, city B has greater variability. The interquartile range is 40.
Vertex is -b/2a. The variable b=2 and a=2. That finds the x coordinate of the vertex. Then to find the y coordinate you just plug the number you got for x (-1/2) into the equation. Like so:
y = 2x+2
y = 2(-1/2)+2
y = -1+2
y = 1
So your vertex is ( -1/2, 1 )
To graph your vertex you take your x coordinate (-1/2) and find it on the x axis of the graph (horizontal line). Then do the same for y (1) (on the vertical axis.
Now that you have your vertex graphed you can find out if it is minimum or maximum by looking at the direction in which the slope is going. If it goes in the positive direction (up) then it is a minimum since that is the lowest point that the line touches. If it is maximum it is opposite. The line faces down and the highest point the line touches is that point.
To convert the measurement in feet to inches, multiply it by 12. 6 1/2 feet is equal to 78 inches. The bookshelf bought by Mrs. Aguilar has a width that is 1 inch lesser than the distance between windows. This suggests that the bookshelf will fit in the allotted space.
