Answer:
9.5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Arrange in ascending order
4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
2. Upper Quartile formula:
3×(N+1)÷4
3. Number of terms (N) = 9
4. Apply:
3×(9+1)/4
=3×10/4
=30/4
=7.5th term
5. 7.5th term is the average of the 7th and the 8th term so
Take average
7th term is 9 and 8th term is 10
6. Find average of 9 and 10 = 9.5
7. ANSWER : THE UPPER QUARTILE IS 9.5 FOR THE GIVEN DATA
For this case we have the following equation:

If we multiply both sides of the equation by 3 we get:
---> Multiplication Property of Equality
Applying the distributive property we have:
---> Distributive Property
Adding 1 on both sides of equality we have:

---> Addition Property of Equality
Subtracting
on both sides we have:

---> Subtraction Property of Equality
Finally, dividing by -4 on both sides we have:

---> Division Property of Equality
3x + (x+3) = 19
4x + 3 = 19
4x = 16
x = 4
y= x+3
y= 4+3
y= 7
Answer:
Using the table
Maria does 1/4 of the job in 1 hour since it takes her 4 hours to complete the job , she works x hours and completes x/4 of the task
Josie does 1/2 of the job in 1 hour since it takes her 2 hours to complete the job , she works x hours and completes x/2
x/4 + x/2 = 1 completed task
Multiply by 4
x/4 *4 + x/2*4 = 1*4
x+2x =4
3x=4
x = 4/3
x = 1 1/3 hours
