<h2>Answer:</h2>

The number of values in the upper quartile is : 10

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We know that our data is divided into three quartiles:

1)

First quartile or lower quartile i.e. Q_1--

It is the median of the lower set of the data.

2)

Median or middle quartile i.e. Q_2--

Median is the central tendency of the data and it always exist in the middle of the data set.

3)

Upper quartile or Third quartile i.e. Q_3--

It is the median of the upper set of data.

Now, if there are even number of data points then the median exist in between two middle values and the upper and lower set of data takes half the data values.

Here we have number of data points as: 20

This means that the median of the data is between 10th and 11 th value i.e. 10.5

Hence, the lower set of data will have: 10 values

and the upper set of the data has: 10 values.

In ΔVWX, the measure of ∠X=90°, XW = 36, WV = 85, and VX = 77. What ratio represents the sine of ∠W?
eimsori [14]

<u>Given</u>:

In ΔVWX, the measure of ∠X=90°, XW = 36, WV = 85, and VX = 77.

We need to determine the ratio that represents the sine of ∠W

<u>Ratio of sin of ∠W:</u>

The ratio of sin of ∠W can be determined using the trigonometric ratios.

The ratio of sin \ \theta is given by

sin \ \theta=\frac{opp}{hyp}

From the attached figure, the opposite side of ∠W is XV and the hypotenuse of ∠W is WV.

Hence, substituting in the above ratio, we get;

sin \ W=\frac{XV}{WV}

Substituting the values, we get;

sin \ W=\frac{77}{85}

Thus, the ratio of sine of ∠W is sin \ W=\frac{77}{85}

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Terms/Coefficients
  • Coordinates (x, y)
  • Solving systems of equations of using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>

7x - y = 7

x + 2y = 6

<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>

Equation: x + 2y = 6

  1. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2y on both sides:                    x = 6 - 2y

<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>

7x - y = 7

x = 6 - 2y

<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>

<em>Substitution</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                                                                                                7(6 - 2y) - y = 7
  2. Distribute 7:                                                                                                    42 - 14y - y = 7
  3. Combine like terms:                                                                                       42 - 15y = 7
  4. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 42 on both sides:                    -15y = -35
  5. [Division Property of Equality] Divide -15 on both sides:                             y = 7/3

<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Define original equation:                                                                               x + 2y = 6
  2. Substitute in <em>y</em>:                                                                                                x + 2(7/3) = 6
  3. Multiply:                                                                                                           x + 14/3 = 6
  4. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 14/3 on both sides:                  x = 4/3

One staple weighs 31 milligrams. If a box of staples holds 250 staples, how many grams of staples does the box hold?
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

7.75

Step-by-step explanation:

1 mg = 0.001 g

31 mg * 0.001 = 0.31 grams per staple

0.31 g * 250 = 7.75 grams per 250 staples
