Answer:

x + y + z = - 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Reciprocal of a : - 6,

Reciprocal of b : 2

Therefore if x is the sum of the reciprocals of a and b, it will be - 6 + 2 = - 4. x will be - 4.

Respectively if y is the product of the reciprocals of a and b, it will be - 6 * 2 = - 12. y is - 12. And if z is twice the reciprocal of a / the reciprocal of b, it will be the following,

z = 2(- 6) / 2

= - 12 / 2 = - 6

And x + y + z = - 4 - 12 - 6 = - 22. That is your solution.

Which data set could be represented by the box plot shown below?
svetlana [45]

Answer:

You haven't given all the data examples as there is just one box plot.

If there are only two choices of Data then go with the first one on picture as it handles data up to 24

The first data on picture also balances the data  15, 17 and 19 and 19 as the first two quarters. So seems to draw the median at 19 and out of the two examples is more consistent to quarters 1-4 = 15-24

Step-by-step explanation:

I would look for answers that represent the whole data

1st qtr = 13-15     = 2

2nd qtr = 15-19  = 4

3rd qtr = 19- 21 = 2

4th quarter = 21-24 = 2

As 2nd qtr is twice as big it still only represents 25% data

Valentin [98]
Since 40%=40/100=4/10, we can divide 11 by 10 and multiply that by 4 to get the weight gained, which is 1.1*4=4.4. The weight gained paired with the starting weight = 10+4.4=14.4
