Given:
A data set has a median of 12, an upper quartile of 15, a lower quartile of 10, a minimum of 4, and a maximum of 20.
To find:
The correct statement for the box plot.
Solution:
Lower quartile is 10 and upper quartile is 15, so the box will go from 10 to 15.
Median of the data set is 12, so a line dividing the box will be at 12.
Minimum value is 4 and lower quartile is 10, so the left whisker will go from 4 to 10.
Upper quartile is 15 and maximum value is 20, so the right whisker will go from 15 to 20.
Therefore, the correct option is B.
ANSWER: 32 five-dollar bills
======
EXPLANATION:
Let x be number of $5 bills
Let y be number of $10 bills
Since we have total of 38 bills, we must have the sum of x and y be 38
x + y = 38 (I)
Since the total amount deposited is $220, we must have the sum of 5x and 10y be 220 (x and y are just the "number of" their respective bills, so we multiply them by their value to get the total value):
5x + 10y = 220 (II)
System of equations:
Divide both sides of equation (II) by 5 so our numbers become smaller
Rearrange (I) to solve for y so that we can substitute into (II)
Substituting this into equation (II) for the y:
We have 32 five-dollar bills
======
If we want to finish off the question, use y = 38 - x to figure out number of $10 bills
32 five-dollar bills and 6 ten-dollar bills
Answer: Three cars will be needed.
This is because the only possible combination of cars and vans that add up to the total seating of 27 people is one van (12 seats) and three cars (15 seats).
12+15=27 seats total.
All you have to use is pemdas and keep y by itself
