What is the interquartile range of the data set? {48, 50, 65, 60, 80, 42, 45, 50, 42, 55, 45}

Order the number:
42,42,45,45,48,50,50,55,60,65,80
Mean:50
Quartile 1:45
Quartile 3:60
60-45=15. As a result, the interquartile range is 15. Hope it help!
First let's get rid of the parenthesis:
12 - 4x + 3x = 4 + 10 + 2x
Now group the x's on the left and the numbers on the right
-4x + 3x - 2x = 4 + 10 - 12
...and simplify
-3x = 2
divide by -3 to isolate x
x = -2/3
1 gallon cost $15
1 quarts cost $4
1 quarts = 1/4 gallon
15x for number of gallon cans
2 cans at $4 each = $8
15x + 8 = 53
Subtract 8 from both sides:
15x = 53-8
15x = 45
Divide both sides by 15:
x = 45/15
x = 3
