Answer:

Distribute

When you have an equation like this, distribute first and then add or subtract like terms to solve for x.

Well, you need to find out what x is equal to, if anything.

The first step to completing it, from what I've learned, is to do the problem that is in parenthesis first.

Hope this helps, sorry if not-

Find the median mode range and any outliers. Then describe the data using them 77777,88,555,6,99,10101010,12
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The median = 5

The mode  = 7

Range = 5

Outliers= None

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the  value of the middle term.

The median is that value which divides the data into two equal halves.

7,7,7,7,7,8,8,5,5,5,6,9,9,10,10,10,10,12

There are 18 terms . So the middle term would be 9th term value= 5

The mode is the value which is repeated the most. = 7

Range is the difference between the highest and lowest value.= 12- 7= 5

The interquartile range, IQR= q3 - q1 where q3= 10 and q1= 7

IQR= 10 −7=3

The inner fences can be found out by

q1−(1.5*IQR) and q3+(1.5*IQR)

=7−(1.5*3) and 10+(1.5*3)

Inner fences: 2.5 and 14.5

The outer fences are q1−(3*IQR) and q3+(3*IQR)

=7−(3*3) and 10+(3*3)

Outer fences: -2 and 19

So if there are any outliers in this data set, they will either be less than -2 or greater than 19. But there are no outliers.

You are making a new type of deodorant from two different mixtures the first mixture is 30% smell proof and the second mixture i
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

600 L of 30% proof and 400 L of 80% proof is needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of 30% smell proof be x while that of 80% smell proof is y

Then;

x + y = 1000 •••••(i)

Also;

30% of x + 80% of y = 50% of 1000

0.3x + 0.8y = 500 •••••(ii)

From i, x = 1000 - y

Put this into ii

0.3(1000-y) + 0.8y = 500

300 - 0.3y + 0.8y = 500

0.5y = 500-300

0.5y = 200

y = 200/0.5

y = 400 L

But x = 1000 - y

x = 1000 - 400 = 600 L
