Answer:

The correct option is (D).

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentiles are statistical measures that are used to interpret data. It represents the data value which is more that a specific percentage of the data set.

The <em>n</em>th percentile of a data set is the value that is more that <em>n</em>% of the data set.

⇒ It is provided that a test-taker's score was at the 94th percentile for their verbal grade.

This statement implies that the test taker scored a mark more than 94% of the other test-takers, i.e. he\she performed better than 94% of the other test-takers in the verbal grade.

⇒ Also the test-taker's score was at the 16th percentile for their quantitative grade.

This implies that the test taker scored a mark more than 16% of the other test-takers, i.e. he\she performed better than 16% of the other test-takers in the quantitative grade.

Thus, the correct option is (D).

P is the set of even numbers that are less than 11
ivanzaharov [21]

Is there a restriction that the set must be positive? or whole numbers? Because negative numbers can be even, which makes your set an infinite list of numbers.

Natural numbers: P = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}

Whole numbers: P = {0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10}

All real numbers: P = {2n ;n ≤ 5}
