Answer:

B. $15x-35$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to simplify the expression $5(3x-7)$ using distributive property.

Distributive property states that we can multiply a quantity to sum by multiplying each addend separately and then add the products as:

$a(b+c)=a\cdot b+a\cdot c$

Using distributive property, we will multiply 5 by $3x$ and $-7$ as:

$5\cdot 3x-5\cdot 7$

$15x-35$

Therefore, the simplified form of the given expression would be $15x-35$ and option B is the correct choice.

melomori [17]

Answer:

i. 18 miles per hour is an outlier

ii. the outlier decreases the mean speed

Step-by-step explanation:

An outlier in a given data is one of the values that is far greater or lesser compared to others. It affect the mean and standard deviation of a given data significantly.

From the given data, 18 is far too small compared to other values. This is certainly an outlier. This would affect the mean speed by decreasing the value.

An interquartile range is a measure of differences among data by dividing a set of given data into quartile. Increasing the value of the outlier would increase the interquartile range.
