The price of a laptop computer decreased from 475 to 275. What is the percent of decrease in price

1 answer:

8 0

First find the difference in prices...

475 - 275 = 200 so the price went down 200 dollars. No we need to find what percentage of 475 is 200.

475 × x = 200
x = 200/475
x = .4211

Now convert to percentage by multiplying by 100 (move decimal 2 places to the right)

.4211 = 42.11%

It is a 42.11% price reduction.

Box Plot has less variability in the data. We can determine this by the distances between the beginning of the data to the end (range) and the distances between lower quartile and the upper quartile (interquartile range).

Box #1
Range - 30
IQR - 15

Box #2
Range - approximately 23
IQR - approximately 9

Box #2 has less variation in the data because the distances between these 2 ranges are smaller meaning the data is closer together.
