If the width is 12 and the length is 18, the perimeter of the rectangle is 12 + 12 + 18 + 18, or 60. So yes the perimeter can be 60.
Answer:
- <em>Yes, an answer can be incorrect even it it looks reasonable.</em>
Explanation:
Yes, an answer can be incorrect even if it looks reasonable, for two main reasons:
- The assumptions (premises or statements) on which the reasoning is based are wrong.
- The reasoning sounds good but it is a fallacy.
To avoid the first condition you must be sure about the facts, which may be information from an experiment that you performed or from a source. In order for an answer be correct, make sure your premises are true.
Dealing with the second condition, a fallacy is an argument that seems strictly logical but is misleading: you must learn which reasonings are really valid; this is, that the conclusion unequivocally follows from the premises.
There are rules for the arguments to be valid, and that is the object of logic study.
Fallacies are sometimes used by those interested in supporting a point of view without having true reason on their side. You should have some knowledges about logic to avoid being victim of the fallacies, which can drive you to make wrong decisions.
Firstly, order the two data set from smallest to largest as shown in diagram below
The value of median, Q2 is the 5th value of both set
The value of Q1 and Q3 is the first and third quarter of the set
The range of data set one is 5-2=3 and of set two is 12-1=11
The interquartile range of set one is 5 - 2 = 3
The interquartile range of set two is 5 - 1.5 = 3.5
The box plot is not symmetrical for either data set
