What is the interquartile range (IQR) of the following data set 17 16 21 15 25 22 18 23 17

Mathematics

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

B.) Hibiscus Street 

The key thing to remember is the slope of the lines. The equation for a line in slope intercept form is
y = ax + b
where
a = slope
b = y intercept

So the equation for Oak Street is y = 2/3x - 7. So it's slope is 2/3. And any street that has the same slope will be given a tree name. And any street that's perpendicular will be given a flower name. You can determine is a line is perpendicular if it has a slope that's the negative reciprocal. So a street that's perpendicular to Oak street will have a slope of -3/2.

Now you've just been given the equation to a new street that's y = -3/2x - 2. Since the slope is -3/2 and Oak street has a slope of 2/3, the new street is perpendicular to Oak street. And given the naming scheme, that means that the new street will have the name of a flower. So let's look at the available street names and pick a flower.
<span>
A.) Weeping Willow Street
* Nope a Weeping Willow is a tree. So this name won't work.
 
B.) Hibiscus Street 
* Yes. A Hibiscus is a flower, so this name is suitable.

C.) Oak Street 
* Nope. Not only is this a tree instead of a flower, but there's already an Oak street. So bad choice.

D.) Panther Street
* Nope, this is an animal, not a flower. Bad choice.

Miss Hernandez has $100 to spend on parking and admission to the zoo the parking will cost $7 and Mission tickets will cost 1550
Mandarinka [93]
It should say $15.50. Parking = p. n = number of people.

n15.50 + 7 is the equation.

She can bring 6 people, because (6 * 15.50) + 7 = $100
 Glad to help!

A rectangular flower bed that is 5 ft long and 4 feet wide is surrounded by a square lawn that is
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

124 ft2

Step-by-step explanation:

The yard is a 12ft square so the length and width would both be 12ft. You multiply the length and width of the yard to get the area of the yard so 12x12=144. You have the length and width of the flower bed so 5x4=20. Once you have the area of both you can subtract the area the flower bed takes up of the lawn. 144-20=124 ft2.
