The cumulative frequency diagram shows the times taken by the members of two different clubs, The Braineys and The Cleverities,

to complete an intelligence test.
a) Find the median and the interquartile range for the Cleverities

b) State which club, on average, was slowest at completing the test. Give the reason for your answer.

Answer:

a) median= 25 mins

   interquartile range= 19mins

b) the braineys , because the braineys took 32mins on average and the cleverites took 25 mins on average which is 7 minutes more.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) find the median by going across the middle of the cumulative frequency (in this case, 40) until it hits the line (the cleverites) and move down to see the time in minutes. 25 mins.

to find the interquartile range, first find the lower quartile. So find the half of the median, or the quarter of the cumulative frequency ( 20) and go across until it hits the line and look down from that point to find the time ( 15 mins). Then, find the upper quartile by finding 3/4 or half+quarter of the cumulative frequency (60) and do the same with the line (34mins)

the interquartile is upper quartile - lower quartile  

34-15= 19 mins

interquartile= 19 mins.

b) the average is the same as the median, so find the median for the cleverites and the median for the braineys, which is 25 mins and 32 mins, therefore the braineys took longer, thus was the slowest at completing the test on average.

A vector with magnitude 9 points in a direction 190 degrees counterclockwise from the positive x axis. Write in component form
Over [174]

Answer:

\vec{v}= \text{ or } \approx

Step-by-step explanation:

Component form of a vector is given by \vec{v}=, where i represents change in x-value and j represents change in y-value. The magnitude of a vector is correlated the Pythagorean Theorem. For vector \vec{v}=, the magnitude is ||v||=\sqrt{i^2+j^2.

190 degrees counterclockwise from the positive x-axis is 10 degrees below the negative x-axis. We can then draw a right triangle 10 degrees below the horizontal with one leg being i, one leg being j, and the hypotenuse of the triangle being the magnitude of the vector, which is given as 9.

In any right triangle, the sine/sin of an angle is equal to its opposite side divided by the hypotenuse, or longest side, of the triangle.

Therefore, we have:

\sin 10^{\circ}=\frac{j}{9},\\j=9\sin 10^{\circ}

To find the other leg, i, we can also use basic trigonometry for a right triangle. In right triangles only, the cosine/cos of an angle is equal to its adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse of the triangle. We get:

\cos 10^{\circ}=\frac{i}{9},\\i=9\cos 10^{\circ}

Verify that (9\sin 10^{\circ})^2+(9\cos 10^{\circ})^2=9^2\:\checkmark

Therefore, the component form of this vector is \vec{v}=\boxed{}\approx \boxed{}

Fred has 30 minutes to do a three-problem quiz. He spent 10 7/10 minutes on question a and 5 2/5 minutes on question b. How much
tatiyna

Answer:Fred has 13 9/10 minutes left for question C

Step-by-step explanation:

The total time that Fred has to do the three-problem quiz is 30 minutes.

He spent 10 7/10 minutes on question A. Converting 10 7/10 minutes to improper fraction, it becomes 107/10 minutes.

He spent 5 2/5 minutes on question B. Converting 5 2/5 minutes to improper fraction, it becomes 27/5 minutes.

Total time that Fred spent on question A and question B is

107/10 + 27/5 = (107 + 54)/10

= 161/10 minutes.

The amount of time that he has left for question C would be

30 - 161/10 = (300 - 161)/10 = 139/10

= 13 9/10 minutes
