Answer: 70

<u>Order the Numbers</u>

Before: 78, 57, 45, 70, 72

After: 45, 57, 70, 72, 78

The median is 70 because it's the middle number.

Finding the median involves finding the value in a data sample that has a physical location between the rest of the numbers.

Note: When calculating the median of a finite list of numbers, the order of the data samples is important. Conventionally, the values are listed in ascending order, but there is no real reason that listing the values in descending order would provide different results.

Which visualization tool is more helpful for detecting outliers in data? Select one: a. scatter plot b. histogram c. Boxplot

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

(A) Scatterplot

Step-by-step explanation:

The most helpful visualization to spot outliers would be a scatterplot.

When collecting data on a scatterplot, you can see how the results are similar and which areas have the most answers and such.

There can be multiply outliers on a scatterplot, and they stand out because while most answers will be clumped together, the outliers will not.

Lin took 75 boxes of carrots and 80 boxes of potatoes to the market. She sold 68 boxes of carrots and 71 boxes of potatoes. How

enot [183]

For this case we have:

x: Represents the number of carrot boxes

y: Represents the number of boxes of potatoes

Initially we have:

$x = 75\\y = 80$

If you sold 68 boxes of carrot we have:

$x = 75-68 = 7$

If you sold 71 boxes of potatoes, we have:

$y = 80-71 = 9$

The number of boxes I take home is given by: $x + y = 7 + 9 = 16$

ANswer:

7 boxes of carrots left

There are 9 boxes of potatoes left

A total of 16 boxes remain

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Part a) $V=1,000\ ft^{3}$

Part b) $h=5\ ft$

Part c) $=718\ gal$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) What is the volume of your friend's swimming pool?

we know that

The volume of a rectangular prism is equal to

$V=LWH$

substitute the values

$V=(25)(8)(5)=1,000\ ft^{3}$

Part b) Your swimming pool is in the shape of a cylinder with a diameter of 16 feet and has the same volume as your friend's pool. What is the height of your pool?

we know that

The volume of a cylinder is equal to

$V=\pi r^{2} h$
