Given that tax rate is 9% on groceries, Amount of tax to be paid on $87.56 worth of groceries will be calculated by tax rate of total groceries purchased

= 9/100 x $87.56

0.09 × $87.56

= $7.88

~ to the nearest cent= $7.9, since .8 is greater than .5, we round up.

6/7 × 4 would be the correct answer. This is because 6/7 × 4= 3 3/7 which is equal to 4/7 × 6= 3 3/7. No other expression would equal 4/7 × 6

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

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

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.

Choose the missing step in the given solution to the inequality −x − 10 > 14 + 2x. −x − 10 > 14 + 2x −3x − 10 > 14 ____

Tresset [83]

Answer:

−3x > 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding 10 to both sides of the inequality will give the missing step:

-3x -10 +10 > 14 +10

-3x > 24
