Answer: 17.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The interquartile range(IQR) is the 3rd quartile - the 1st quartile.

How to get quartiles:

First get the median:

3.5, 10.4, 16, 21.7, 27.7

10.4, 16, 21.7

Then find the median of the first half of data(3.5, 10.4)

(3.5+10.4)/2 = 6.95

Then find the median of the last half of data(21.7, 27.7)

(21.7+27.7)/2 = 24.7

Then to get the IQR subtract 6.95 from 24.7 to get 17.75

Hope it helps <3

How do we calculate 25% of 300

Natali5045456 [20]

25% is equal to $\frac{1}{4}$ . To get 25% of 300, we multiply 300 by either 0.25 or $\frac{1}{4}$ . This gives us $(300)( \frac{1}{4}) = \frac{300}{4} = \frac{150}{2} = 75$

Twice the sum of a number, n, and seven is four less than the quotient of a number, n, and three.

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$2(n+7)=\frac{n}{3}-4\\ \\ 2n+14=\frac{n-12}{3}\\ \\ 6n+42=n-12\\ \\ 5n+42=-12\\ \\ 5n=30\\ \\ n=6$

Verify:<br>cos(2A)=(cotA-tanA)/cscAsecA

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the trigonometric identities

cot A = $\frac{cosA}{sinA}$ , tanA = $\frac{sinA}{cosA}$ , cscA = $\frac{1}{sinA}$ , secA = $\frac{1}{cosA}$

Consider the right side

$\frac{cotA-tanA}{cscAsecA}$

= $\frac{\frac{cosA}{sinA}-\frac{sinA}{cosA} }{\frac{1}{sinA}.\frac{1}{cosA} }$

= $\frac{\frac{cos^2A-sin^2A}{sinAcosA} }{\frac{1}{sinAcosA} }$

= $\frac{cos^2A-sin^2A}{sinAcosA}$ × sinAcosA ( cancel sinAcosA )

= cos²A - sin²A

= cos2A

= left side ⇒ verified

(Coordinate Plane) Point A coordinates are (1,3). If reflected across the x-axis, what is the new point's coordinates?

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

(1,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason why it would be (1,-3) is because (1,3) is in the first quadrant which is (+,+) and when it is reflected across the x axis, it is then placed into the fourth quadrant which is (+,-). So you need to make the 3 negative and then it will be reflecting across the x axis
