Q(3) = -2(3)+2 = -4
r(q(3)) = (-4)^2-1 = 15
It would be -3. since they’re different signs you would subtract instead of doing addition. you also would us the greater numbers sign, which, in this case, -9 is the greater number so the answers sign would be negative.
The answer would be $24.55 per oz of gold alloy so rounded up would be $25
To make a box and whisker plot, you need to draw a number line that would be able to represent all the values in the data (look at your lowest and highest numbers).
You will need to graph the following 5 points on your number line (median, lower quartile, lower extreme, upper quartile, and upper extreme).
Create a box around the quartiles and extend the lines to the extremes.
See the picture I have attached for the box and whisker box for this data set.
