Hi there!

To solve this problem, we need to set up two equations and use the system of equations to solve.

Let x be the first number.
Let y be the second number.

(x + y) ÷ 2 = 34
x = 3y

Now, we can use substitution to solve.

(3y + y) ÷ 2 = 34
4y ÷ 2 = 34
2y = 34
y = 17

Now, we plug the value of y in the equation to solve for x.

x = 3*17
x = 51

Hope this helps!

Drag each tile to the correct box. A data set that consists of many values can be summarized using the five-number summary. Arra
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Minimum < Q1 < Median < Q3< Maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Minimum, Median, Maximum, Q3 and Q1

<em>See attachment for complete question</em>

Required

Order from least to greatest

In a dataset, the range is:

Range = Maximum - Minimum

This implies that, the minimum is the least and the maximum is the highest of the dataset

So, we have:

Minimum <         <              <           < Maximum

The median is the middle item; So, the above becomes

Minimum <         < Median <           < Maximum

In a dataset, the IQR is:

IQR = Q_3 - Q_1

This implies that:

Q_3 > Q_1

So, we have:

Minimum < Q1 < Median < Q3< Maximum
