In a dot plot, each one of the dots represents a value in the data set. When there are multiple values at a particular number, the dots just get stacked on top of each other. Using the dots in the plot, you can find the mean, median, mode or any other statistic that you need to summarize the data.
Answer:
x = -1,-5
Step-by-step explanation:
X^2 + 3x + 5 = -3x
x^2 + 6x + 5 = 0
(x + 5)(x + 1) = 0
x = -1,-5
Well, we could try adding up odd numbers, and look to see when we reach 400. But I'm hoping to find an easier way.
First of all ... I'm not sure this will help, but let's stop and notice it anyway ...
An odd number of odd numbers (like 1, 3, 5) add up to an odd number, but
an even number of odd numbers (like 1,3,5,7) add up to an even number.
So if the sum is going to be exactly 400, then there will have to be an even
number of items in the set.
Now, let's put down an even number of odd numbers to work with,and see
what we can notice about them:
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 .
Number of items in the set . . . 8
Sum of all the items in the set . . . 64
Hmmm. That's interesting. 64 happens to be the square of 8 .
Do you think that might be all there is to it ?
Let's check it out:
Even-numbered lists of odd numbers:
1, 3 Items = 2, Sum = 4
1, 3, 5, 7 Items = 4, Sum = 16
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 Items = 6, Sum = 36
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15 . . Items = 8, Sum = 64 .
Amazing ! The sum is always the square of the number of items in the set !
For a sum of 400 ... which just happens to be the square of 20,
we just need the <em><u>first 20 consecutive odd numbers</u></em>.
I slogged through it on my calculator, and it's true.
I never knew this before. It seems to be something valuable
to keep in my tool-box (and cherish always).
The parameter of interest in this scenario is the proportion of all 1,000 students within the school who have "strict" parents or guardians.
<h3>How to calculate a test statistic?</h3>
In Mathematics, the test statistics of a given sample is calculated by using this formula:
<u>Where:</u>
- is the standard deviation.
In conclusion, a possible test statistic which can be used to estimate this parameter is the proportion of all students who have "strict" parents or guardians, based on the collected sample.

<h3>Answers:</h3><h3>First box = 57.14</h3><h3>Second box = 80</h3>
=============================================
Explanation:
If you save 65%, then you pay the remaining 35%
0.35x is the final price when x is the original price
0.35x = 20 solves to x = 57.14 approximately after dividing both sides by 0.35
57.14 goes in the first box
--------------
This must mean 80 goes in the other box.
Here's the steps on how to get 80
If you save 75% then you pay the remaining 25%
0.25x = 20
x = 20/0.25
x = 80
80 goes in the second box
