The following triangles are similar. Find x.
1 answer:
Let's use the line on the right side. In the smaller triangle, the length is 4. The same side on the bigger triangle is 12. The ratio of the smaller triangle to the bigger triangle is:
To find a side length for the bigger triangle, all you need to do is multiply by 3. The same side on the smaller triangle is 5. Multiply by 3
That means x = 15

From the given data sets we shall obtain the answers as follows:
<span>301 345 305 394 328 317 361 325 310 362
Re-arrange the data in ascending order:
301, 305, 310, 317,325, 328, 345, 361, 362, 394
from the above we see that:
Minimum value=301
Q1=310
median=(325+328)/2=326.5
Q3=361
Maximum value=394
Thus the box plot will be as follows:
