Answer: 2a -5 = 7    and a = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If 5 is less than twice a, the the expression will be  2a -5, since 2 a is the same as 2 times a, and 5 less than 2a is the same as subtracting 5 from 2a. "is" is the same as equal to, so the whole expression has to equal 7.

2a - 5 = 7   You can solve for a by adding 5 to both sides.

   +5    +5

2a = 12         Now divide both sides by 2.

a =  6.

The data below represent the ages of people working at a store.
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The first step is sort the values on increasing order and we got:

18, 18, 19, 19, 19, 20, 22, 23. 25,  26, 31

And in order to find the first quartile we can separate the first 5 lowest values from the largest 5 values. And for this case we focus on these values:

18, 18, 19, 19, 19

And if we find the median of the last 5 values we can find the first quartile and we got:

Q_1 = 19

The best answer would be:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we have the following dataset:

18, 26, 19, 25, 19, 23, 31, 22, 19, 18, 20

The first step is sort the values on increasing order and we got:

18, 18, 19, 19, 19, 20, 22, 23. 25,  26, 31

And in order to find the first quartile we can separate the first 5 lowest values from the largest 5 values. And for this case we focus on these values:

18, 18, 19, 19, 19

And if we find the median of the last 5 values we can find the first quartile and we got:

Q_1 = 19

The best answer would be:

19
