Plotting that point puts us at a y value of -5 (the y coordinate of the point P). y=-8 is a straight horizontal line through y=-8, so the distance from -5 to -8 is 3. Remember that distance is never negative. Distance is measured using the absolute value of the numbers. So b is your choice.

Ganezh [65]

Answer : option A

To find the range of scores that represents the middle 50 % of the student who took the test , we find inter quartile

Inter quartile range is the middle 50% of the given range of scores.

The difference between the upper quartile and lower quartile is the inter quartile that is middle 50%

From the diagram , we can see that

Upper quartile = 89

lower quartile = 65

So range is 65% to 89%

if log 2 = ( 0.3010 ), Log 3 = ( 0.4771 ) and Log 5 = ( 0.6990 ) then find the value of the following: Log 24... The answer is (

tekilochka [14]

Answer: 1. 3801

Step-by-step explanation:

Log 24 = Log(8x3)

From the laws of Logarithm

Log ( a xb) = Log a + Log b

so, Log (8x3) = Log8 + Log 3

Also Log 8 can be written as Log $2^{3}$ since $2^{3}$ is still 8 , so the expression becomes

Log $2^{3}$ + Log 3

⇒ 3 Log 2 + Log 3

since the value of Log 2 and Log 3 has been given , substitute into the expression , we have

3 (0.3010) + 0.4771

= 0.903 + 0.4771

= 1.3801
