On each trial of an experiment, a subject is presented with a constant soft noise, which is interrupted at some unpredictable ti

me by a noticeably louder sound. The time it takes for the subject to react to this louder sound is recorded. The following list contains the reaction times (in milliseconds) for the trials of this experiment: 296, 311, 202, 217, 231, 171, 241, 164, 257, 269, 175, 273, 285, 226, 261 Find 25th and 80th percentiles for these reaction times.

Answer:

25th percentile = 202

80th percentile = 285

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging the values in increasing order

164

171

175

202

217

226

231

241

257

261

269

273

285

296

311

N = total number of variables = 15.

25th percentile = [(N + 1)/4]th variable = (15 + 1)/4 = 4th variable.

So, the 25th percentile = 4th variable = 202.

80th percentile = 0.8(N + 1) th variable = 0.8 × (15 + 1) = 12.8th variable = 13th variable = 285

Dexter earns $12.50 each hour he helps his dad with landscaping.he helped his dad for 4.5 hours last weekend .How much did dexte
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

$56.25

Step-by-step explanation:

for every hour Dexter worked with his dad he made $12.50 since he worked with him 4.5 hours we have to multiply 12.50*4.5 or if easier add 12.5 four and a half time 12.5+12.5+12.5+12.5= 50 + 6.25 ( which is half of $12.50 because he only worked half an hour) = $56.25

ASAP MAJOR HELP NEEDED. I really need help. I am very confused on how to do this please help.
alexandr402 [8]

Because the 2 sides of the triangle are the same, they are both 21, the two bottom angles would also be the same.


The 3 inside angles of a triangle must equal 180 degrees.


The top angle is given as 38, so the remaining two angles must equal 180 - 38 = 142 degrees.


Since the 2 bottom angles would be the same, divide 142 by 2 to get x.

X = 142 / 2 = 71 degrees.

HELP ASAPJennifer and Chris completed some chores and split the earnings in the ratio 3:2. Jennifer earned $48.
elixir [45]

Let the total earnings be = x

Jennifer and Chris split the earnings in the ratio 3:2

Jennifer earned = $48

\frac{3x}{5}=48

3x=240

x=80

Hence total earnings are $80

(a) Chris earning is = \frac{2x}{5}=\frac{2*80}{5}=32

Hence, Chris earns $32

(b) Jennifer spends 30% of her earnings on a book.

So, price of the book = \frac{30}{100}\times48

Price of book = $14.40

(c)  Jennifer also buys a magazine for = $5.40

So, total money Jennifer spent on book and magazine = 14.40+5.40=19.80

Money left with Jennifer = 48-19.80= $28.20

In fractions = \frac{28.20}{48}

or multiplying the numerator and denominator by 10, we get

\frac{282}{480}=\frac{47}{80}

(d) Let the original price of the shirt = x

reduction percentage on x= 40%

Price paid after reduction = 16.80

\frac{40x}{100}=16.80

40x=1680

x=42

Hence, the original price of the shirt was $42.
