Takiya recorded the heights of two sets of plants, one set planted in the shade and one set planted in full sun. Her data are sh

own in the plots below.
A dot plot. A number line going from 1.5 to 4.5 in increments of 0.5 is labeled Heights of Shaded plants (inches). There are 0 dots above 1.5, 4 above 2, 3 above 2.5, 2 above 3, 0 above 3.5 and 4, and 1 above 4.5.
A dot plot. A number line going from 1.5 to 4.5 in increments of 0.5 is labeled Heights of Full Sun plants (inches). There are 0 dots above 1.5, 1 above 2, 0 above 2.5, 2 above 3, 0 above 3.5, 4 above 4, and 3 above 4.5.
Which best explains the variability of the sets?
The shaded plants set has greater variability because more data is clustered around the median.
The sets are equally variable because the ranges of the data sets are equal.
The full sun plants set has greater variability because the IQR for full sun plants is greater.

Question;

1) The shaded plants set has greater variability because more data is clustered around the median.

2) The sets are equally variable because the ranges of the data sets are equal.

3) The full sun plants set has greater variability because the IQR for full sun plants is greater.

Answer:

The correct option is;

3) The full sun plants set has greater variability because the IQR for full sun plants is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer the question, we present the dot plot as follows;

Heights of Shaded plants (inches)

          0       4      3       2      0       0             1

0       1.5      2     2.5     3     3.5     4           4.5

We calculate the five numbers as follows;

Max = 4.5

Min = 2

1st quartile = (10+1)/4 th term = 2

2nd quartile (Median) = (10+1)/2 th term = 2.5

3rd quartile = 3×(10+1)/4 th term = 3

Interquatile range (IQR) = Q₃ - Q₁ = 3 - 2 = 1

Where:

Q₁ = 1st quartile

Q₃ = 3rd quartile

Heights of Full Sun plants

0     1      0      2      0       4         3

1.5   2    2.5    3     3.5     4        4.5

We calculate the five numbers as follows;

Max = 4.5

Min = 2

1st quartile = (10+1)/4 th term = 3

2nd quartile (Median) = (10+1)/2 th term = 4

3rd quartile = 3×(10+1)/4 th term = 4.5

Interquatile range (IQR) = Q₃ - Q₁ = 4.5 - 3 = 1.5

The interquartile range, IQR, is a measure of variability

Therefore, the full sun plants set has greater variability because the IQR for full sun plants is greater.

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

  The product is approximately 5400.

Step-by-step explanation:

  9 1/16 rounded to the nearest whole number is 9.

  645 3/5 rounded to the nearest hundred is 600.

Multiplying these values gives a product of 9·600 = 5400.

The product is approximately 5400.

Find an equation of the line described below. Write the equation is slope-intercept from ( solved for y), when possible. Through
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

The equation of the line that is passing through the point (5,4) and is parallel to x-axis would be y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the line passes through the point (5,4).

As the line is parallel to the x-axis, the slope of the line would be zero.

And we have point (5,4) from which the line is passing.

So, x_1=5\  ,\ y_1=4\ and\ m=0

The equation of the line passing through point (x_1,y_1) is

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-4=0(x-5)\\y-4=0\\y=4

So, the equation of the line that is passing through the point (5,4) and is parallel to x-axis would be y=4

An identification code is to consist of 3 letters followed by 2 digits. Determine the following
kirill [66]
Well let's see:

The first letter can be any one of 26 .
       For each one . . .
The second letter can be any one of the remaining 25.
       For each one . . .
The third letter can be any one of the remaining 24.
       For each one . . .
The two digits can be any number from 01 to 98 ...
       except 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, or 88.  (No repetition.)
      There are 90 of them.

So the total number of possibilities is    (26 · 25 · 24 · 90) .

When I multiply that out, I get   1,404,000 .

I don't know how you got your number, so I can't comment on your
method, but I did find something interesting about your number:

If I assume that you did the three letters the same way I did, then
if I divide your number by  (26·25·24), the quotient will show me
how you handled the two digits.

                         1,263,600 / (26·25·24)  =  81 .

That's very intriguing, because it's so close to the 90 sets of digits
that I used.  But I don't know what it means, or if it means anything
at all.
