Well, there are actually millions of colors in the rainbow, (every color that the human eye can see), but I do understand the question you're asking:

 

-- When Sara is ready to make her first selection, there are seven things with different colors in the pot, and one of them is red.

The probability that she picks the red one is ( 1 / 7 ).

The question says "with replacement". That means that after she selects it and looks at it, she puts it back in the pot. So . . .

-- When she's ready to make her second selection, the same seven things with different colors are still in the pot.  One of them is orange.

The probability that she picks the orange one is ( 1 / 7 ).

-- The probability of BOTH selections being successful (the color she wants) is

(1/7) x (1/7) .

That's <em>(1/49)</em>, which is about  <em>2.04 percent</em> .

The first quartile of the dataset {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} is _______. (give your answer as a whole number.
notsponge [240]

The first quartile of the dataset {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} is 2.

Given data set: {1,2,3,4,5,6}

Median of the given data set =3.5

The data set can be split into 2 parts as, {1,2,3} and {4,5,6}. The first quartile is calculated by simply finding the median of the first part of the data set.

Thus, the first quartile is 2.

The quarter divides the distribution into four groups and calculates the range of values above and below the mean.

A quartile separates the dataset into four categories by dividing the data into three points: the lowest, median, and upper quartiles.

The interquartile range, a measurement of variation around the median, is calculated using quartiles.
