Answer:

The interquartile range (IQR) of the data set is  <u>8</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The data show prices of light bulbs at a home improvement store, rounded to the nearest dollar.

5, 2, 8, 10, 2, 20, 6, 15, 29, 6, 2, 2, 5, 1, 3.

Now, to find the interquartile range (IQR) of the data set.

So, we arrange first in orders:

1,2,2,2,2,3,5,5,6,6,8,10,15,20,29.

Now, to get the median:

1,2,2,2,2,3,5,<u>5</u>,6,6,8,10,15,20,29.

5 is the median.

So, to get the IQR we need to get the Q1 (median of the first half)  and Q3 (median of the second half):

Q1 = <u>1,2,2,</u>2<u>,2,3,5,</u> 5,6,6,8,10,15,20,29

Q1 = 2.

Q3 = 1,2,2,2,2,3,5,5 ,<u>6,6,8,</u><u>10</u><u>,15,20,29</u>

Q3 = 10.

Now, to calculate the IQR:

IQR = Q3-Q1

IQR=10-2

IQR=8.

Therefore, the interquartile range (IQR) of the data set is 8.

A circle has an initial radius of 50 ft when the radius begins decreasing at the rate of 5 5 ​ft/min. What is the rate in the ch
gavmur [86]

Answer:

  -816.8 ft²/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of area is the product of the rate of change of radius and the circumference of the circle. At the time of interest, ...

  dA/dt = C·dr/dt = 2πr·dr/dt

  dA/dt = 2π·(26 ft)(-5 ft/min)

  dA/dt = -260π ft²/min ≈ -816.8 ft²/min

A military aircraft can travel 740 miles per hour. The distance between Tyndall Air Force Base in Florida and Lakenheath Air For
BARSIC [14]

Answer: 3.5 h

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>1. Data:</u>

a) s = 740 miles / h

b) d = 2,567 miles

c) t = ?

<u>2. Equation:</u>

  • speed = distance / time
  • s = d / t

<u>3. Solution:</u>

  • Solve the equation for t:

        s = d / t ⇒ t = d / s

  • Substitute values:

        t = 2,567 miles / (740 miles/h) ≈ 3.47 h ≈ 3.5 h

What is the common ratio for the geometric sequence?
Helen [10]
Note this pattern:  Mult. 24 by (-1/4) produces -6.
                              Mult -6 by (-1/4) produces 6/4 = 3/2
                             Mult. 3/2 by (-1/4) produces 3/8

Looks as though you copied the problem down incorrectly.  You wrote 32 for 3/2 and -38 for -3/8.

The common ratio is -1/4.
