Answer:

We are given that 4 lb of candies are bought for $9.00

Therefore, the price of 1 lb of candies is:

$\frac{9}{4}=2.25$

Now the amount of candies that can bought for $12.00 is:

$\frac{12}{2.25} =5.3333$ lb

Therefore, 5.3333 lb of candies can be bought for $12.00

Well, remember we can't take the square root of a negative

so we see that we have $\sqrt{1-x^2}$
so find those values that take sqrt of a negative and restrict hem from the domain
anny value greater than 1 and less than -1
so domain is from -1 to 1, including those numbers
D=[-1,1]

a. D=[-1,1] or from -1 to 1 is domain

b. for a TI-84, go to y-editor then input $4x \sqrt{1-x^2}$ for y1

c. for a TI-84, click 2nd then window (gets to tbset) scrol down to set Δx to 0.1, then cilick 2nd again then click graph (to select table) and scroll down till you see that value of y that is the biggest, that value is x=0.7

A. domain is from -1 to 1
B. use your brain or google the instructions for your calulator
C. at x=0.7

Given list of values
A = {23, 34, 19, 10, 9, 20, 40, 43, 28, 29, 36, 13, 27, 23, 36, 37, 7}

Sort list A to get list B
B = {7, 9, 10, 13, 19, 20, 23, 23, 27, 28, 29, 34, 36, 36, 37, 40, 43}

The smallest value is 7, so the min is 7
The largest value is 43, so the max is 43

Look through list B to find the middle-most value. What you can do is cross off each pair of outer values (see figure 1 in the attached images) until you are left with the middle value
Or you can note how there are 17 values so the median is at slot 9 (there are 8 values below the median; 8 values above the median; the 8 is from 17/2 = 8.5)

Once you know the median is 27, we split the list B into two parts
The first part, we'll call it L for lower half is
L = {7, 9, 10, 13, 19, 20, 23, 23}
which is the list of all values lower or smaller than the median.
The median of list L is 16 because its the midway point between 13 and 19. We can compute (13+19)/2 = 32/2 = 16. This is the value of Q1

The upper half U is
U = {28, 29, 34, 36, 36, 37, 40, 43}
this list shows all the values larger than the median.
The value of Q3 is 36. We find the midpoint of 36 and 36 which is just 36.
The value of Q3 is the same as the median of list U

------------------------------------------------

Five Number Summary:
Min = 7
Q1 = 16
Median = 27
Q3 = 36
Max = 43

This five number summary is then used to construct the box-and-whisker plot. See figure 2 in the attached images. The diagram shows how each piece of the boxplot is put together (eg: the left edge of the box is the value of Q1).
