Answer:
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
Step-by-step explanation:
-1.7 + (-6.3)
Correct simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
Open parenthesis
= - 1.7 - 6.3
= -8
NOTE:
- * + = -
- * - = +
+ * - = -
+ * + = +
Maureen's simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
= 1.7 - 6.3
= -4.6
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
So to put them in intervals of 5 you would have:
70-74
75-79
80-84
85-89
90-94
95-99
In these intervals you would have:
70-74: 72
75-79: 78
80-84: 81
85-89: 86, 86, 87
90-94: 92, 92, 92
95-99: 98
The second interval is 75-79 where there is only one number. Therefore the frequency will be 1.
The correct answer is A. Hope this helps! :)
