IQR = 6

First locate the median Q_{2} at the centre of the data arranged in ascending order. Then locate the lower and upper quartiles Q_{1} and Q_{3} located at the centre of the data to the left and right of the median.

Note that if any of the above are not whole values then they are the average of the values either side of the centre.

rearrange data in ascending order

15 16 ↓17 17 18 21 22 ↓23 25

                     ↑

Q_{2} = 18

Q_{1} = \frac{16+17}{2} = 16.5

Q_{3} = \frac{22+23}{2} = 22.5

IQR = Q_{3} - Q_{1} = 22.5 - 16.5 = 6

Through:(-1, -2), slope = 5
kherson [118]

Answer:

y=5x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given the point (-1, -2) and a slope of 5. We need to find the equation of the line in slope intercept form.

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Since we're already given the slope, we can substitute that immediately into the equation

here it is so far:

y=5x+b

now we need to solve for b

Since the line will pass through the point (-1,-2), we can use it to solve for b

substitute -1 as x and -2 as y into the equation

-2=5(-1)+b

multiply

-2=-5+b

add 5 to both sides

3=b

substitute that into the equation

therefore, the equation of the line is <u>y=5x+3</u>

Hope this helps! :)

There are 84 boys in the 6th grade class. If boys make up 30% of the 6th graders, how many students are in this whole 6th grade
koban [17]
<h3>Answer:  280</h3>

Work Shown:

x = number of students in the 6th grade class

30% = 30/100 = 0.30

30% of x = 0.30x this is equal to 84 since "30% of the 6th graders are boys (and there are 84 boys in sixth grade)", so we say 0.30x = 84

Divide both sides by 0.30 to isolate x

0.30x = 84

0.30x/0.30 = 84/0.30

x = 280

So there are 280 students overall in the 6th grade class.
