Answer:  A. Wed to Fri

We have a bunch of natural numbers and we're told a pair is in the ratio 2:5.

For natural numbers to have this ratio, the left number will be a multiple of two and the right number will be a multiple of five.

Our only option for a multiple of 5 is 15, Friday.  So we have

2:5 = x:15

and x = 15*2/5 = 6

which was Wednesday's number.  So we get Wed:Fri=6:15=2:5.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's try each of the answer choices:

A. Wednesday to Friday

On Wednesday, 6 computers were sold and on Friday, 15 were sold. Then we can write 6 : 15, which simplifies to 2 : 5, which matches what we want. So, A is correct.

B. Monday to Thursday

On Monday, 8 computers were sold and on Thursday, 16 were sold. Then we can write 8 : 16, which simplifies to 1 : 2, which does not match what we want. So, B is incorrect.

C. Tuesday to Friday

On Tuesday, 12 computers were sold and on Friday, 15 were sold. Then we can write 12 : 15, which simplifies to 4 : 5, which also does not match what we want. So, C is incorrect.

D. Thursday to Tuesday

On Thursday, 16 computers were sold and on Tuesday, 12 were sold. Then we can write 16 : 12, which simplifies to 4 : 3, which still does not match what we want. So, D is incorrect.

The answer is thus A.

The box plots show the weights, in pounds, of the dogs in two different animal shelters.
zimovet [89]

*see attachment below for the box plots that is being referred to

Answer:

*The median weight for shelter A is greater than that for shelter B

*The data for shelter B are a symmetric data set

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take each stated option and examine the box plot to see which is TRUE or NOT.

OPTION 1: "The median weight for shelter A is greater than that for shelter B."

The median for shelter A = 21,

Median for shelter B = 18

Median weight for shelter A (21) is greater than that for shelter B.

This statement in this option is TRUE.

OPTION 2: "The median weight for shelter B is greater than that for shelter A."

Median for B (18) < median of A (21)

This statement in option is NOT TRUE.

OPTION 3: "The data for shelter A are a symmetric data set."

This is NOT TRUE because the length of both whiskers are unequal and also, the box is not divided equally. One side is longer than the other.

OPTION 4: "The data for shelter B are a symmetric data set."

This is TRUE because the length of both whiskers are relatively equal, and also, the rectangular box is divided equally.

OPTION 5: "The interquartile range for shelter A is 8"

This is NOT TRUE.

IQR = Q3-Q1

IQR for shelter A is approximately  = 28-17 = 11
