Ok, first we need to organize. <span>14, 8, 23, 9, 11, 27, 22, 3, 17, 12, 29 </span>3, 8, 9, 11, 12, 14, 17, 22, 23, 27, 29.
First, we need to find the median, the or the middle, which is 14. Now that we know the median is fourteen, we take away all numbers to the left of 14, including 14: 17, 22, 23, 27, 29. Now just find the median in this new set of numbers. This will give us our upper quartile, which is 23. Hope this helped, and don't forget to drop a like.
This expression should be simplified using order of operations. According to order of operations or PEMDAS, complete any numbers in parenthesis then any exponents, multiplication, division, additions and subtraction moving left to right through each operation.
Begin with Parenthesis.
(7+3-4*9) - Multiply first
(7+3-36) - Then add/subtract left to right
10 - 36 = -26
Replace -26 where the parenthesis were in the original expression.
