A)2y - 1/2 = -1/3

2y=-1/3+1/2

FIND THE LCM TO MAKE THE FRACTIONS LIKE FRACTIONS

LCM OF 3 AND 2 IS 6

-1/3*2=-2/6

1/2*3=3/6

-2/6+3/6=1/6

2y=1/6

y=1/6 ÷ 2

TAKING THE RECIPROCAL,

RECIPROCAL OF 2 IS 1/2

y=1/6*1/2

y=1/12

B) 6 + 5 (a - 1) = 30

6+(5)*(a)+(5)*(−1)=30(Distribute)

6+5a+−5=30

(5a)+(6+−5)=30(Combine Like Terms)

5a+1=30

5a=30-1

5a=29

a=29/5

15.sum of three consecutive integers=48

let the numbers be x ,x+1,x+2

x+x+1+x+2==48

3x+3=48

3x=48-3

3x=45

x=45/3

x=15

x+1=15+1=16

x+2=15+2=17

the numbers are 15,16,17

Find the median mode range and any outliers. Then describe the data using them 77777,88,555,6,99,10101010,12
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The median = 5

The mode  = 7

Range = 5

Outliers= None

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the  value of the middle term.

The median is that value which divides the data into two equal halves.

7,7,7,7,7,8,8,5,5,5,6,9,9,10,10,10,10,12

There are 18 terms . So the middle term would be 9th term value= 5

The mode is the value which is repeated the most. = 7

Range is the difference between the highest and lowest value.= 12- 7= 5

The interquartile range, IQR= q3 - q1 where q3= 10 and q1= 7

IQR= 10 −7=3

The inner fences can be found out by

q1−(1.5*IQR) and q3+(1.5*IQR)

=7−(1.5*3) and 10+(1.5*3)

Inner fences: 2.5 and 14.5

The outer fences are q1−(3*IQR) and q3+(3*IQR)

=7−(3*3) and 10+(3*3)

Outer fences: -2 and 19

So if there are any outliers in this data set, they will either be less than -2 or greater than 19. But there are no outliers.
