Answer:

Q_1 = 24

Q_3 = 29

IQR= Q_3 -Q_1 = 29-24 =5

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following dataset:

25,21,26,24,29,33,29,25,19,24

The first step is order the data on increasing order and we got:

19, 21, 24, 24, 25, 25, 26, 29, 29 , 33

For this case we have n=10 an even number of data values.

We can find the median on this case is the average between the 5 and 6 position from the data ordered:

Median = \frac{25+25}{2}=25

In order to find the first quartile we know that the lower half of the data is: {19, 21, 24, 24, 25}, and if we find the middle point for this interval we got 24 so this value would be the first quartile Q_1 = 24

For the upper half of the data we have {25,26,29,29,33} and the middle value for this case is 29 and that represent the third quartile Q_3 = 29

And finally since we have the quartiles we can find the interquartile rang with the following formula:

IQR= Q_3 -Q_1 = 29-24 =5

What property out of distributive,communitive,and associative.
Vlad1618 [11]
Hello!

The Associative Property of Multiplication states the following:

a × (b × c) = (a × b) × c

The equation given in the image above follows the same form:

9 × (5 × 2) = (9 × 5) × 2

Therefore, the given equation must be representative of the Associative Property.

I hope this helps!
