Sal recorded the number of crackers in each snack-sized package he opened. Which statement must be true according to the box plo

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The data is skewed, and the lowest number of crackers in a package was 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

First of all, since the question was incomplete due to the missing capture of the range shown on the box plot. I attached it for you so I could answer your question as well.

Taking into consideration the attached image's information, symmetric would be right down the middle, but it is not.

The image shows that it is <em>positively skewed with the lowest number being 7.</em>

What type of triangle has exactly two acute triangles

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer: A right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because an acute triangle would have all of its three sides acute while an obtuse one would have two acute angles as well, but also an obtuse one. If the question is specifically asking for a triangle with exactly two acute angles, a right triangle would be the answer.

Dannette and Alphonso work for a computer repair company. They must include the time it takes to complete each repair in their r

olga55 [171]

Answer:

(a):

Dannette Alphonso

$\bar x_D = 4.33$ $\bar x_A = 5.17$

$M_D = 2.5$ $M_A = 5$

$\sigma_D = 3.350$ $\sigma_A = 1.951$

$IQR_D = 7$ $IQR_A = 1.5$

(b):

Measure of center: Median

Measure of spread: Interquartile range

(c):

There are no outliers in Dannette's dataset

There are outliers in Alphonso's dataset

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for the appropriate data presentation

Solving (a): Mean, Median, Standard deviation and IQR of each

From the attached plots, we have:

IQR_A = 1.5 ---- Dannette

$A = \{3,4,4,4,4,5,5,5,5,6,6,11\}$ ---- Alphonso

n = 12 --- number of dataset

Mean

The mean is calculated

$\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}$

So, we have:

$\bar x_D = \frac{1+1+1+1+2+2+3+7+8+8+9+9}{12}$

$\bar x_D = \frac{52}{12}$

$\bar x_D = 4.33$ --- Dannette

$\bar x_A = \frac{3+4+4+4+4+5+5+5+5+6+6+11}{12}$

$\bar x_A = \frac{62}{12}$

$\bar x_A = 5.17$ --- Alphonso

Median

The median is calculated as:

$M = \frac{n + 1}{2}th$

$M = \frac{12 + 1}{2}th$

$M = \frac{13}{2}th$

$M = 6.5th$

This implies that the median is the mean of the 6th and the 7th item.

So, we have:

$M_D = \frac{2+3}{2}$

$M_D = \frac{5}{2}$

$M_D = 2.5$ ---- Dannette

$M_A = \frac{5+5}{2}$

$M_A = \frac{10}{2}$

$M_A = 5$ ---- Alphonso

Standard Deviation

This is calculated as:

$\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x - \bar x)^2}{n}}$

So, we have:

$\sigma_D = \sqrt{\frac{(1 - 4.33)^2 +.............+(9- 4.33)^2}{12}}$

$\sigma_D = \sqrt{\frac{134.6668}{12}}$

$\sigma_D = 3.350$ ---- Dannette

$\sigma_A = \sqrt{\frac{(3-5.17)^2+............+(11-5.17)^2}{12}}$

$\sigma_A = \sqrt{\frac{45.6668}{12}}$

$\sigma_A = 1.951$ --- Alphonso

The Interquartile Range (IQR)

This is calculated as:

$IQR =Q_3 - Q_1$

Where

$Q_3 \to$ Upper Quartile and $Q_1 \to$ Lower Quartile

$Q_3$ is calculated as:

$Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}*({n + 1})th$

$Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}*(12 + 1})th$

$Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}*13th$

$Q_3 = 9.75th$

This means that $Q_3$ is the mean of the 9th and 7th item. So, we have:

$Q_3 = \frac{1}{2} * (8+8) = \frac{1}{2} * 16$ $Q_3 = \frac{1}{2} * (5+6) = \frac{1}{2} * 11$

$Q_3 = 8$ ---- Dannette $Q_3 = 5.5$ --- Alphonso

$Q_1$ is calculated as:

$Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}*({n + 1})th$

$Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}*({12 + 1})th$

$Q_1 = \frac{1}{4}*13th$

$Q_1 = 3.25th$

This means that $Q_1$ is the mean of the 3rd and 4th item. So, we have:

$Q_1 = \frac{1}{2}(1+1) = \frac{1}{2} * 2$ $Q_1 = \frac{1}{2}(4+4) = \frac{1}{2} * 8$

$Q_1 = 1$ --- Dannette $Q_1 = 4$ ---- Alphonso

So, the IQR is:

$IQR = Q_3 - Q_1$

$IQR_D = 8 - 1$ $IQR_A = 5.5 - 4$

$IQR_D = 7$ --- Dannette $IQR_A = 1.5$ --- Alphonso

Solving (b): The measures to compare

Measure of center

By observation, we can see that there are outliers is the plot of Alphonso (because 11 is far from the other dataset) while there are no outliers in Dannette plot (as all data are close).

Since, the above is the case; we simply compare the median of both because it is not affected by outliers

Measure of spread

Compare the interquartile range of both, as it is arguably the best measure of spread, because it is also not affected by outliers.

Solving (c): Check for outlier

To check for outlier, we make use of the following formulas:

$Lower =Q_1 - 1.5 * IQR$
