Answer:

1. The interquartile range for the grade 7 data is 6.

2. The interquartile range for the grade 8 data is 6.

3. The difference of the medians of the two data sets is 2.

4. The difference is about 1/3 times the interquartile range of either data set.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hourly cookie sales by students in grades 7 and 8 at the school's annual bake sale is given by the following table.

Grade 7       Grade 8

  20                  21

  15                  29

  30                  14

  24                  19

   18           24

   21                 25

The data set for grade 7 is

20, 15, 30, 24, 18, 21

Arrange the data in ascending order.

15, 18, 20, 21, 24, 30

Divide the data in four equal parts.

(15), 18, (20), (21), 24,( 30)

Q_1=18, Median=\frac{20+21}{2}=20.5, Q_3=24

The interquartile range for the grade 7 data is

IQR=Q_3-Q_1=24-18=6

Therefore the interquartile range for the grade 7 data is 6.

The data set for grade 8 is

21, 29, 14, 19, 24, 25

Arrange the data in ascending order.

14, 19, 21, 24, 25, 29

Divide the data in four equal parts.

(14), 19, (21), (24), 25, (29)

Q_1=19, Median=\frac{21+24}{2}=22.5, Q_3=25

The interquartile range for the grade 8 data is

IQR=Q_3-Q_1=25-19=6

Therefore the interquartile range for the grade 8 data is 6.

The difference of the medians of the two data sets is

D=22.5-20.5=2

Therefore the difference of the medians of the two data sets is 2.

Let the difference is about x times the interquartile range of either data set.

The IQR of each data is 6.

D=x(IQR)

2=x(6)

\frac{2}{6}=x

\frac{1}{3}=x

Therefore the difference is about 1/3 times the interquartile range of either data set.

A rectangle has the
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

15.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Length of rectangle = 22 inches
  • Perimeter = 75 inches

To calculate : Width of the rectangle.

★ Perimeter of rectangle = 2( l + w )

→ 75 = 2(22 + w)

→ 75 = 44 + 2w

→ 75 – 44 = 2w

→ 31 = 2w

→ 31 ÷ 2 = w

→ <u>1</u><u>5</u><u>.</u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>inches</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>Width</u>

Therefore, width of the rectangle is 15.5 inches.

The land area of a country is about 5.0 million square​ miles, and the population is about 600 million people. What is the avera
podryga [215]

Answer:

120 people/sq. mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Population Density is the concept of how "crowdy" a place is. The more the population density, the more crowded that place is.

The population density is found by dividing the "number of people" by the "land area" (in sq mile or sq km).

Here, it is given there are 600 million people, so

Number of People = 600,000,000

And, the land area is given as 5 million square miles, so

Land Area = 5,000,000 sq. miles

Hence,

Population Density = 600,000,000/5,000,000 = 120 people/sq. mile
