In descriptive statistics, the interquartile range<span> (</span>IQR<span>), also called the midspread or middle 50%, or technically H-spread, is a measure of statistical dispersion, being equal to the difference between 75th and 25th percentiles... ~ wikipedia

according to Wikipedia and some quick mental math the answer would be four

four is the difference between 14 and 18 which are respectively the 25th and 75th percentiles.</span><span />

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The interquartile range is the difference between the third quartile, Q3, and the first quartile, Q1.

In a box plot, Q1 makes up the left hand side of the box and Q3 makes up the right hand side of the box. In this figure, Q1 is 14 and Q3 is 18; this makes the IQR

18-14 = 4

If a 24-kg mass stretches a spring 15 cm, what mass will stretch the spring 10 cm

natulia [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is borers on elasticity of materials.

according to Hooke's law,<em> "provided the elastic limit of an elastic material is not exceeded the the extension e is directly proportional to the applied force."</em>

$F= ke$

where F is the applied force in N

k is the spring constant N/m

e is the extension in meters

Given data

mass m= 24kg

extensnion=15cm in meters= $\frac{15}{100}$ = $0.15m$

we can solve for the spring constant k

we also know that the force F = mg

assuming $g=9.81m/s^{2}$

therefore

$24*9.81=k*0.15\\235.44=k*0.15\\k=\frac{235.44}{0.15} \\k=1569.6N/m\\$

We can use this value of k to solve for the mass that will cause an extension of $10cm= 0.1m$

$x*9.81=1569.6*0.1\\\\x= \frac{156.96}{9.81} \\\x= 16kg$

What percent of 72 is 9? 1/8% 1 1/4% 12 1/2% 125%

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

$12\dfrac 12\%$

Step by step explanation:

$\text{Let it be}~ x\%,\\\\~~~~~72 \cdot x \% = 9\\\\\\\implies 72\cdot \dfrac{x}{100} = 9\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{9 \times 100}{72}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{100}{8}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{25}2\\\\\\\implies x = 12 \dfrac 12\\\\\\\text{Hence 9 is}~ 12\dfrac 12\% ~ \text{of}~ 72$
