Answer:

The diameter of the plate is 15 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- All circles are similar

- In the similar circles the ratio between their circumferences is equal

 to the ratio between their diameters

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The circumference of a frying pan is 78.5 centimeters

∵ The circumference of a plate is 47.1 centimeters

∵ The frying pan and the plate are shaped circles

∴ The frying pan and the plate are similar

∴ C 1/C 2 = d 1/d 2 , where C 1 is the circumference of the frying pan ,

   C 2 is the circumference of the plate , d 1 is the diameter of the

   frying pan and d 2 is the diameter of the plate

∵ The diameter of the frying pan is 25 centimeters

∴ d 1 = 25

∵ C 1 = 78.5

∵ C 2 = 47.1

∵ C 1/C 2 = d 1/d 2

∴ 78.5/47.1 = 25/d 2

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 78.5(d 2) = (47.1)(25)

∴ 78.5(d 2) = 1177.5

- Divide both sides by 78.5

∴ d 2 = 15

∵ d 2 is the diameter of the plate

∴ The diameter of the plate is 15 centimeters

The following data show the scores of some students in a competition:
Dima020 [189]

The box plot that represents the data is a box plot titled "Scores of Participants" and labeled "Score" uses a number line from 10 to 35 with primary markings and labels at 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35. The box extends from 13 to 27 on the number line. A line in the box is at 24. The whiskers end at 11 and 31.(second option)

<h3>Which box plot represents the data?</h3>

A box plot is used to study the distribution and level of a set of scores. The whiskers represent the minimum and maximum values.

On the box, the first line to the left represents the lower (first) quartile. The next line on the box represents the median. The third line on the box represents the upper (third) quartile. 75% of the scores represents the upper quartile.

The data arranged in ascending order : 11, 13, 23, 24, 24, 27, 31

Median = 24

First quartile = 1/4 x (7 + 1) = 2nd term =13

Third quartile = 3/4 x (7 + 1) = 6th term = 27
