Answer:

The lower quartile is Q_1=33 thousand dollars.

The median quartile is Q_2=39 thousand dollars.

The upper quartile is Q_3=45 thousand dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lower quartile is the median value of the lower half of a data set at the 25th percentile of a distribution.

The median quartile is the median value of a data set at the 50th percentile of a distribution.

The upper quartile is the median value of the upper half of a data set at the 75th percentile of a distribution.

To locate each quartile in a data set, we follow four steps:

Step 1: Put the numbers in order: 23, 25, 33, 34, 39, 39, 44, 45, 48, 55

Step 2: The median is given by \frac{n+1}{2} where n is all scores in the data set.  

Because n = 10, the median position is \frac{10+1}{2}=5.5

The median is the average of the fifth and sixth positioned scores

Q_2=\frac{39+39}{2} =39

Step 3:  Compute \frac{n+1}{2} where n is all scores below Q_2.

For scores below Q_2, use only 23, 25, 33, 34, 39.

Because n = 5, the median position is \frac{5+1}{2}=3

The median is the third positioned score: Q_1=33

Step 4: Compute \frac{n+1}{2} where n is all scores above Q_2.

For scores above Q_2, use only  39, 44, 45, 48, 55

Because n = 5, the median position is \frac{5+1}{2}=3

The median is the third positioned score: Q_3=45

What is the value of h?
emmainna [20.7K]
The angle on one side of a straight line is 180°, so 40° + 60° + h = 180°.
If you rearrange this you will get h = 180° - 60° - 40°, this will give you: h = 80°.
Hope this helps
