Part A:

The five number summary is consisting of : Median or 2nd quartile(Q2), 1st quartile(Q1), 3rd quartile(Q3), Lowest and Highest values.

For creating the five number summary for each set, first we need to rearrange the data set in ascending order:

Town A : 3 4 5 5 6 7 9 9 20

Median is the middle value in the set. Here, the middle value is 6. So the median or second quartile(Q2) = 6. The lowest value is 3 and highest value is 20.

The median splits the remaining data into two sets. The first set is 3, 4, 5, 5. The median of this set is \frac{4+5}{2}= \frac{9}{2}  =4.5

So, first quartile (Q1) = 4.5

The other set is 7, 9, 9, 20. The median of this set is: \frac{9+9}{2}=\frac{18}{2}=9

So, third quartile (Q3) = 9

The interquartile range(IQR)= Q3 - Q1 = 9 - 4.5 = 4.5

Town B : 3 3 5 5 6 8 8 9 9

The middle value in the set is 6. So, the median or second quartile(Q2) =6. The lowest value is 3 and the highest value is 9.

The first set in the left of median is: 3 3 5 5 and median of this set= \frac{3+5}{2}=\frac{8}{2}=4

So, first quartile (Q1) = 4

The second set in the right of median is : 8 8 9 9 and the median of this set = \frac{8+9}{2}=\frac{17}{2}=8.5

So, third quartile (Q3) = 8.5

The interquartile range(IQR)= Q3 - Q1 =8.5 - 4 = 4.5

Part B:

A box plot is called symmetric when the median is in the middle of the box, that means Q2 should be equally distanced from Q1 and Q3.

For town A, distance between Q1 and Q2 = 6 - 4.5 = 1.5 and distance between Q2 and Q3 = 9 - 6 = 3. As the distances are different, so the box plot is not symmetric.

For town B, distance between Q1 and Q2 = 6 - 4 = 2 and distance between Q2 and Q3 = 8.5 - 6 = 2.5. As the distances are different, so this box plot is also not symmetric.

Consider the contrapositive of the statement you want to prove.

The contrapositive of the logical statement

<em>p</em> ⇒ <em>q</em>

is

¬<em>q</em> ⇒ ¬<em>p</em>

In this case, the contrapositive claims that

"If there are no scalars <em>α</em> and <em>β</em> such that <em>c</em> = <em>α</em><em>a</em> + <em>β</em><em>b</em>, then <em>a₁b₂</em> - <em>a₂b₁</em> = 0."

The first equation is captured by a system of linear equations,

\begin{cases}c_1 = \alpha a_1 + \beta b_1\\ c_2 = \alpha a_2 + \beta b_2\end{cases}

or in matrix form,

\begin{pmatrix}c_1\\c_2\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}a_1&b_1\\a_2&b_2\end{pmatrix}\begin{pmatrix}\alpha\\\beta\end{pmatrix}

If this system has no solution, then the coefficient matrix on the right side must be singular and its determinant would be

\begin{vmatrix}a_1&b_1\\a_2&b_2\end{vmatrix} = a_1b_2-a_2b_1 = 0

and this is what we wanted to prove. QED

K<br> M<br> N<br> L <br>Radius:13<br> Diameter:26 cm <br>Circumference:?<br> Area:?
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

Given radius (R) = 13

Diameter =  2R =  26

Circumference =  2πR

=  26π

=  81.681408993335

Area =  πR2

=  169π

=  530.92915845668

Step-by-step explanation:

While a circle, symbolically, represents many different things to many different groups of people including concepts such as eternity, timelessness, and totality, a circle by definition is a simple closed shape. It is a set of all points in a plane that are equidistant from a given point, called the center. It can also be defined as a curve traced by a point where the distance from a given point remains constant as the point moves. The distance between any point of a circle and the center of a circle is called its radius, while the diameter of a circle is defined as the largest distance between any two points on a circle. Essentially, the diameter is twice the radius, as the largest distance between two points on a circle has to be a line segment through the center of a circle. The circumference of a circle can be defined as the distance around the circle, or the length of a circuit along the circle. All of these values are related through the mathematical constant π, or pi, which is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, and is approximately 3.14159. π is an irrational number meaning that it cannot be expressed exactly as a fraction (though it is often approximated as 22/7) and its decimal representation never ends or has a permanent repeating pattern. It is also a transcendental number, meaning that it is not the root of any non-zero, polynomial that has rational coefficients. Interestingly, the proof by Ferdinand von Lindemann in 1880 that π is transcendental finally put an end to the millennia-old quest that began with ancient geometers of "squaring the circle." This involved attempting to construct a square with the same area as a given circle within a finite number of steps, only using a compass and straightedge. While it is now known that this is impossible, and imagining the ardent efforts of flustered ancient geometers attempting the impossible by candlelight might evoke a ludicrous image, it is important to remember that it is thanks to people like these that so many mathematical concepts are well defined today.

Choose the expression that completes the equation.
worty [1.4K]
The correct answer would be 3(7+1) because 7+1=8 and 8 times 3 equals 24. 24 divided by six is 4 plus 20 would also be 24.
