Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒The question is on third quartile

⇒To find the third quartile we calculate the median of the upper half of the data

Arrange the data in an increasing order

20, 21, 24, 25, 28, 29, 35, 37, 42

Locate the median, the center value

20, 21, 24, 25, 28, 29, 35, 37, 42

The values 20, 21, 24, 25 ------------lower half used in finding first quartile Q1

The value 28 is the median

The vlaues 29, 35, 37, 42...............upper half used in finding 3rd quartile Q3

Finding third quartile Q3= median of the upper half

upper half= 29,35,37,42

median =( 35+37)/2 = 36

Find the Slope:

AveGali [126]

Answer:

4) slope= 0

5) $slope = - \frac{1}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\boxed{ slope = \frac{y _{2} - y_1 }{x_2 - x_1} }$

4) Slope

$= \frac{10 - 10}{ - 10 - 3}$

$= \frac{0}{ - 13}$

= 0

The slope is zero as the line is a horizontal line (since both points have the same y-coordinate of 10).

5) Slope

$= \frac{5 - 4}{2 - 9}$

$= \frac{1}{ - 7}$

$= - \frac{1}{7}$

Since you have taken (x₁, y₁) to be (9, 4), the value of x₁ should be 9 instead of 2.

If r=10 and s=31 find R. Round to the nearest tenth

Vsevolod [243]

Answer: option c.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to remember the identity:

$tan\alpha=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

The inverse of the tangent function is arctangent. You need to use this to calculate the angle "R":

$\alpha =arctan(\frac{opposite}{adjacent})$

You know that you need to find the measure of "R" and $r=10$ (which is the opposite side) and $s=31$ (which is the adjacent side), you can sustitute values into $\alpha =arctan(\frac{opposite}{adjacent})$

Then, you get:

$R=arctan(\frac{10}{31})\\\\R=17.9\°$

I need help answering this question, Asap

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

(-65)/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate 3/(x - 2) - sqrt(x - 3) where x = 19:

3/(x - 2) - sqrt(x - 3) = 3/(19 - 2) - sqrt(19 - 3)

19 - 3 = 16:

3/(19 - 2) - sqrt(16)

19 - 2 = 17:

3/17 - sqrt(16)

sqrt(16) = sqrt(2^4) = 2^2:

3/17 - 2^2

2^2 = 4:

3/17 - 4

Put 3/17 - 4 over the common denominator 17. 3/17 - 4 = 3/17 + (17 (-4))/17:

3/17 - (4×17)/17

17 (-4) = -68:

3/17 + (-68)/17

3/17 - 68/17 = (3 - 68)/17:

(3 - 68)/17

3 - 68 = -65:

Answer: (-65)/17

Find the average rate of change of f(x) = -x² + 5x+2 from x=3 to x=6.

ivolga24 [154]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The points at the ends of the interval are ...

(3, f(3)) = (3, 8)

(6, f(6)) = (6, -4)

The slope is given by the slope formula:

m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

m = (-4 -8)/(6 -3) = -12/3 = -4

The average rate of change is -4.
