The IQR is 42.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Interquartile range is the difference of third and first quartile.

First of all we have to find the median for that purpose the data has to be arranged in ascending order. The data is already in ascending order.

As the number of values are odd

n=21

The median will be: (\frac{n+1}{2}) th\ term

Putting n=21

(\frac{21+1}{2})th\ term\\=(\frac{22}{2})th\ term\\= 11th\ term

The 11th term is 133

So median = 133

Now the data is divided into two halves

One is: 98, 100, 101, 102, 108, 109, 111,118, 129, 132

2nd is: 135, 135, 145, 146, 146, 156, 170 176, 180, 180

Q1 will be the median of first half and Q3 will be the median of 2nd half.

As now the halves contain even number of values, the medians will be the average of middle two values

<u>For First Half:</u>

98, 100, 101, 102, <u>108, 109</u>, 111,118, 129, 132

Q_1 = \frac{108+109}{2}\\Q_1 = \frac{217}{2}\\Q_1 = 108.5

<u>For Second Half:</u>

135, 135, 145, 146, 146, 156, 170 176, 180, 180

Q_2 = \frac{146+156}{2}\\Q_2 = \frac{302}{2}\\Q_2 = 151

Now

<u>Interquartile Range:</u>

IQR = Q_3-Q_1\\= 151-108.5\\=42.5

Hence,

The IQR is 42.5

Use the substitution method to solve the following system of equations:
Ivenika [448]
Using the first equation:
4x = y + 3   --->   y = 4x - 3
We then substitute this into the second equation:
7x - 9(4x-3) = -2   --->   7x - 9x + 27 = -2   --->   -2x = -29   --->   x = 14.5

Find the perimeter of a square with side a. Are the perimeter of the square and the length of its side directly proportional qua
inna [77]

The perimeter of a square with side a = 7.2 cm is 28.8 cm. Yes there exists a direct proportional relationship between Side length and Perimeter of square

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that side of square "a" = 7.2 cm

We have to find the perimeter of square

<em><u>The perimeter of square is given as:</u></em>

Perimeter of square = 4a

Where "a" represents the length of side of square

Substituting the given value a = 7.2 cm in above formula, we get perimeter of square

Perimeter of square = 4(7.2) = 28.8 cm

<em><u>Are the perimeter of the square and the length of its side directly proportional quantities?</u></em>

\begin{array}{l}{\text { perimeter of square }=4 a=4 \times \text { length of side }} \\\\ {\frac{\text { perimeter of square }}{\text { length of side }}=4}\end{array}

The Perimeter is equal to a constant times the Side length, or the Perimeter divided by the Side length is equal to four. So this is definitely a proportional relationship between Side length and Perimeter.

Two values are said to be in direct proportion when an increase in one results in an increase in the other.

So when length of sides increases, perimeter also increases

Hence perimeter and length of side of square are directly propotional quantities
