Answer:

D. Q_3=47

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a table that represents the the number of electoral votes California was assigned each decade of the past century. We are asked to find the 3rd quartile of our given data.

The number of votes are: 9, 13, 13, 22, 25, 32, 40, 45, 47, 54, 55.

We will use upper quartile formula to solve our given problem.

Q_3=\frac{3}{4}*(n+1)^{\text{th term}}, where, n represents the number of elements in the data set.

We can see that our data set has 11 data points, so upon substituting n=11 in above formula we will get,

Q_3=\frac{3}{4}*(11+1)^{\text{th term}}

Q_3=\frac{3}{4}*(12)^{\text{th term}}

Q_3=3*3^{\text{th term}}

Q_3=9^{\text{th term}}

Now let us count 9th term of our data set. Upon counting our data set from left to right we can see that 9th term of our data set is 47, therefore, 3rd quartile of our given data is 47 and option D is the correct choice.

What is the simplified form of this expression? (8x − 7) + (-2x − 9) − (4x − 3)
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:         2x -13

Step-by-step explanation:

         Simplified                             (8x − 7) + (-2x − 9) − (4x − 3)

                                                       8x - 7 - 2x - 9 - 4x + 3

         Simplified like terms            8x - 2x - 4x - 7 - 9 + 3

                                                       2x -13

Can someone please help me with this question about given two points?Please help ASAP!!! :(
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

<em>The order of subtraction is not important in any of the coordinates</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance Between Two Points

Given two points (x1,y2) (x2,y2), the distance between them is given by the formula

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

The difference between both coordinates is squared, then added, and finally extracted the square root.

Based on the principle that

a*a=a^2

and also

(-a)(-a)=a^2

We can notice it doesn't matter the sign of a the square of a is always positive. If we had subtracted in the opposite way, the distance would have resulted in exactly the same. In other words, the above formula is exactly the same as

d=\sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}

As seen, it applies for both coordinates

A couple is required by their lender to have a down payment of 20% of the purchase price of the home they want to buy. If the co
Stella [2.4K]

Down payment is 20% of the price of the home. Since the couple saved $35,000, and assuming they will pay the whole money as down payment, the highest priced home they can get is a price whose 20% is $35,000.

We can setup an equation in x (being the price of home) to get the price of the most expensive home they can buy.

<em>Which number (x) , multiplied by 20%, is equal to $35,000?</em>

<em>x(0.2)=35,000\\x=\frac{35,000}{0.2} \\x=175,000</em>

So, the most expensive house they can buy is worth $175,000.

I can't figure this one out please help!
Helen [10]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The first answer is that the sale price is 25% cheaper its a dumb question.

The second answer is the 2nd option because it states that sale prices are 30% of the original. For example if you had a $100 item it would cost you 30% of that original price. But if you went to the first store it would cost you $70 dollars because its 30% off of the original price.

Is it more difficult to run up a ramp with a slope of 15 or a ramp with a slope of 5? Explain.
notsponge [240]

Answer:

the slope of 15 is more difficult to run on

Step-by-step explanation:

The larger the slope, the steeper the ramp.  A slope of zero is a horizontal line, which would be relatively easy to run on.  A slope of undefined is a wall, which we cannot run on (we would fall off).   The larger the number, the steeper it gets
