Answer:

There is one outlier, indicating very few books were rented out on that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Outlier is one which lies either below 1.5 (IQR) from Q1 or above 1.5 (IQR) from quartile III

Our entries are

99, 29, 30, 42, 35, 36, 30, 35, 38, 43, 39, 40, 28,

Minimum: 28

Quartile Q1: 30

Median: 35.5

Quartile Q3: 40

Maximum: 99

IQR = 40-30 = 10

1.5*IQR = 15

OUtliers are below 30-15 or above 40+15

Here only one entry 99 is there.

There is one outlier, indicating very few books were rented out on that day.

Apyramid was built about 2570 BC. Its original height was 453 feet, 11 inches, but

sweet [91]

Answer:

422.44 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A, B, X, and H represent the left-most observation point, the observation point to its right, the point immediately below the apex, and the height of the apex, respectively.

Then the definition of the cotangent function tells us ...

AX = H·cot(42°)

BX = H·cot(48.85°)

Since the figure tells us AB = 100 feet, we have ...

AB = AX -BX

100 = H·cot(42°) -H·cot(48.85°)

H = 100/(cot(42°) - cot(48.85°)) ≈ 422.44 . . . . ft

The current height of the pyramid is 422.44 feet.

Gina's literacy bucket weighs 6 pounds. Her novel weighs 1 4/6 pounds, and her chrome book weighs 2 1/6 how much would her bucke

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

$2\frac{1}{6}$ pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Gina's literacy bucket weighs 6 pounds. Her novel weighs 1 4/6 pounds, and her chrome book weighs 2 1/6.

To find weight of bucket after taking out the two items, we will subtract weight of each item from 6 pounds as:

$\text{Weight of bucket}=6-1\frac{4}{6}-2\frac{1}{6}$

Let us convert mixed fractions into improper fractions as:

$1\frac{4}{6}=\frac{6\cdot 1+4}{6}=\frac{10}{6}\\\\2\frac{1}{6}=\frac{6\cdot 2+1}{6}=\frac{12+1}{6}=\frac{13}{6}$

$\text{Weight of bucket}=6-\frac{10}{6}-\frac{13}{6}$

$\text{Weight of bucket}=\frac{6\cdot 6}{6}-\frac{10}{6}-\frac{13}{6}$

$\text{Weight of bucket}=\frac{36}{6}-\frac{10}{6}-\frac{13}{6}$

Combine numerators:

$\text{Weight of bucket}=\frac{36-10-13}{6}$

$\text{Weight of bucket}=\frac{13}{6}$

$\text{Weight of bucket}=2\frac{1}{6}$

Therefore, the weight of the bucket is $2\frac{1}{6}$ pounds.
