We need a common denominator before we subtract. Both numbers go into 8. 5/8 stays as 5/8 and 1/2 becomes 4/8

Now we can subtract: 5/8 - 4/8
All we have to do is subtract the numerators (5 - 4) and keep the same denominator.

5 - 4 = 1

The answer is 1/8.

What is quartile 1 (Q1)quartile 3 (Q3) and the IQR? Answer all three parts . 13, 23, 24, 25, 26, 26, 37, 47, 47, 48, 50

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Quartile 1 (Q1) = 24

Quartile 2 (Q2) = 47

IQR = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The set of data are:

13, 23, 24, 25, 26, 26, 37, 47, 47, 48, 50

The data are in increasing order. The number terms are, $n = 11$ .

Therefore, the middle term = $\frac{n+1}{2}=\frac{11+1}{2}=6^{th}\ term$

So, the median = 26

Now, the median divides the set of data into two parts. The median of first part is the quartile 1 and the median of second part is quartile 2.

So, the first part has the following terms:

13, 23, 24, 25, 26

Here also, $n=5$ . So, the third term is the median.

∴ Q1 = 24

The second part has the following terms:

37, 47, 47, 48, 50

Here also, $n=5$ . So, the third term is the median.

∴ Q2 = 47.

Now, IQR = Q2 - Q1 = 47 - 24 = 23.

How does Algebra act as a tool to improve communication

damaskus [11]

It is a tool as it represents the language of patterns.

It is also a means of working with abstract notions and then applying them, which frequently leads to the formation of generalisations and insights outside of the original context.
