Answer: D. The interquartile range for Forida is 11, greater than interquartile range for Australia, 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in a box-plot the vertical line between the box which divide the box into two parts represents the median of the data.

We can see that box plots are skewed .

In this case the Interquartile range is a better measure of spread than the range because the data is affected by outliers.

From the given box plots which shows the shark attack data, it can be seen that the \text{Interquartile range for Florida= }Q_3-Q_1=28-17=11

And \text{Interquartile range fro Australia= }Q_3-Q_1=14-10=4

∴ The statement best compares the spreads of the data sets : The interquartile range for Forida is 11, greater than interquartile range for Australia, 4.

When an amount of heat Q (in kcal) is added to a unit mass (kg) of a
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The change in temperature per minute for the sample, dT/dt is 71.\overline {6} °C/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters of the question are;

The specific heat capacity for glass, dQ/dT = 0.18 (kcal/°C)

The heat transfer rate for 1 kg of glass at 20.0 °C, dQ/dt = 12.9 kcal/min

Given that both dQ/dT and dQ/dt are known, we have;

\dfrac{dQ}{dT} = 0.18 \, (kcal/ ^{\circ} C)

\dfrac{dQ}{dt} = 12.9 \, (kcal/ min)

Therefore, we get;

\dfrac{\dfrac{dQ}{dt} }{\dfrac{dQ}{dT} } = {\dfrac{dQ}{dt} } \times \dfrac{dT}{dQ} = \dfrac{dT}{dt}

\dfrac{dT}{dt} = \dfrac{\dfrac{dQ}{dt} }{\dfrac{dQ}{dT} } = \dfrac{12.9 \, kcal / min }{0.18 \, kcal/ ^{\circ} C }   = 71.\overline 6 \, ^{\circ } C/min

For the sample, we have the change in temperature per minute, dT/dt, presented as follows;

\dfrac{dT}{dt}  = 71.\overline 6 \, ^{\circ } C/min

Which lines have slope -4/5 and contains point (0,1)?
miv72 [106K]
ANSWER

The required line is BC


EXPLANATION

We want to find the line that passes through
(0,1)

and has slope
m =  -  \frac{4}{5}


Since the x-value of the given point is zero, the point

(0,1)

is the y-intercept.


From the above graph, the two lines that contains
(0,1)

are line CE and line BC.

Since, the slope

m =  -  \frac{4}{5}
is negative, line BC is the required line because it is sloping backwards.


We can confirm this by using the point,


B(-5,5)

and

C(0,1)


to find the slope and obtain


m =  \frac{5 - 1}{ - 5 - 0}  =   - \frac{4}{5}

Jeremy has 50 ft of fencing to enclose a rectangular-pen for his dog. He plans on using a side of his house for one side of the
kotykmax [81]

The dimensions such as length is 18 and width is 16 or length is 32 and width is 9 will produce an enclosed area of 288ft.

<h3>What is the dimension of length and width?</h3>

We know that,

P = l + 2w

50 = l + 2w

50 - 2w = l

A = l x w

288 = (50 - 2w)w

288 = 50w -2w²

2w² - 50w + 288

By dividing throughout by 2

w² - 25w + 144

This is in quadratic equation form.

By applying quadratic formula,

w = (-(-25) ± \sqrt{(-25)^{2}-4*1*144) / 2

w = (-(-25) ± 7)/2

w1 =  (-(-25) + 7)/2

w1 = (25 + 7) / 2

w1 = 16

w2 =  (-(-25) - 7)/2

w2 = (25 - 7) / 2

w2 = 9

By substituting the values in eq1,

A = l x w

if w = 16

288 = l x 16

l = 288/16

l = 18

if w = 9

288 = l x 9

l = 288/9

l = 32

The dimensions will be length is 18 and width is 16 or length is 32 and width is 9.
