The answer would be 3mph because 3/4 / 1/4 = 3. So the answer would be 3mph.

Answer:

His speed in miles per hour is:

<u>3Mph</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Depending on the speed you take in miles per minute when passing it to miles per hour, you should consider the time it takes you to travel a mile.

Now: If 3/4 of a mile is 0.75 miles.

And it takes 15 minutes, so how long does it take 1 mile?

It is a rule of three.

0.75 miles = 15 minutes

1 mile = X

Clearing X would give :

 X = 15 * 1 / 0.75

X = 20 minutes takes a mile to travel

Now if it goes to 1Mpm how much is in Mph?

If it takes 20 minutes to travel 1 mile, how many travels in 60 minutes (1 hour)

Again rule of 3.

20 minutes = 1 mile

60 minutes = X

Clearing X would give:

X = 60/20

<u>X = 3 miles per hour.</u>

<u>Luis rides 3 miles per hour.</u>

What is the upper quartile, Q3, of the following data set? 54, 53, 46, 60, 62, 70, 43, 67, 48, 65, 55, 38, 52, 56, 41
scZoUnD [109]
The original data set is 
{<span>54, 53, 46, 60, 62, 70, 43, 67, 48, 65, 55, 38, 52, 56, 41}

Sort the data values from smallest to largest to get
</span><span>{38, 41, 43, 46, 48, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 60, 62, 65, 67, 70} 
</span>
Now find the middle most value. This is the value in the 8th slot. The first 7 values are below the median. The 8th value is the median itself. The next 7 values are above the median. 

The value in the 8th slot is 54, so this is the median

Divide the sorted data set into two lists. I'll call them L and U 
L = {<span>38, 41, 43, 46, 48, 52, 53}
U = {</span><span>55, 56, 60, 62, 65, 67, 70}
they each have 7 items. The list L is the lower half of the sorted data and U is the upper half. The split happens at the original median (54).

Q3 will be equal to the median of the list U
The median of U = </span>{<span>55, 56, 60, 62, 65, 67, 70} is 62 since it's the middle most value. 

Therefore, Q3 = 62

Answer: 62</span>
