The side-by-side boxplots show the ages of all Oscar winners for Best Actress (females) and Best Actor (males). It's easy to see

that both distributions contain outliers (they're stars in the plot). Given that the median age of a man who won Best Actor is 42, Q1 = 39, and Q3 = 48, what's the maximum age of a male who would not be considered an outlier? (Use the IQR rule for outliers.)
A. 61.5

B. 75

C. 50

D. 57

Answer: A. 61.5

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the IQR (Interquartile range) rule , the upper fence for the dta values is given by :_

\text{Third Quartile}+1.5\times \text{IQR}

Given : First Quartile : Q_1=39

Third Quartile : Q_3=48

Interquartile range (IQR)= Q_3-Q_1=48-39=9

Then, Upper fence: 48+1.5\times(9)

=48+13.5=61.5

Hence, the maximum age of a male who would not be considered an outlier = 61.5

Solve the following equation
Gnoma [55]
40x+8x^2=0 can be solved for x (there are two solutions):

Divide all 3 terms by the greatest common multiple (which is 8x):

40x+8x^2=0
------------- -----
       8x       8x

5 + x = 0             produces the root x = - 5.   

Setting 8x = 0 and solving for x produces the root x = 0.

Be certain to check these results.  substitute x = -5 into 40x+8x^2=0.  Is the resulting equation true or false?  Next, subs. x=-5 into 40x+8x^2=0.  Is the resulting equation true or false?

You can buy DVDs at a local store for $15.49 each. You can buy them at an online store for $13.99 each plus $6 for shippimg. How
NeTakaya
15.49x = 13.99x + 6
15.49x - 13.99x = 6
1.50x = 6
x = 6 / 1.50
x = 4 <=== u can buy 4 DVD's for the same amount

15.49 * 4 = 61.96
13.99(4) + 6 = 61.96

Consider the following linear equation.y = -1-Step 1 of 2: Determine the slope and the y-intercept (entered as an ordered pair)
Dmitriy789 [7]

Recall that a slope-intercept form of a linear equation is

\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ \text{where} \\ m\text{ is the slope} \\ b\text{ is the y-intercept} \end{gathered}

Rearrange the given so that it follows that slope intercept form

\begin{gathered} y=-1-\frac{2}{5}x\Longrightarrow y=-\frac{2}{5}x-1 \\  \\ \text{Now that it is in the slope intercept form} \\ y=-\frac{2}{5}x-1 \\ \text{we can determine that the slope is } \\ m=-\frac{2}{5} \\ \text{and the y-intercept is} \\ b=-1 \end{gathered}

The y-intercept is the value for which the linear function crosses the y-axis, this is when the value of x is equal to zero. The ordered pair therefore of the y-intercept is (0,-1).

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:  1\frac{1}{4}\ cups is needed for 5 servings.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Hemal wanted to make desert for her family for which they made the recipe,

For 8 servings , the number of cups of flour is needed = 2

We will use "Unitary Method" ,

For 1 serving, the number of cups of flour is needed is given by

\frac{2}{8}=\frac{1}{4}

For 5 servings, the number of cups of flour is needed is given by

\frac{1}{4}\times 5=\frac{5}{4}=1\frac{1}{4}\ cups

Hence, 1\frac{1}{4}\ cups is needed for 5 servings.
