Answer:

the two numbers are 19 and 32

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>let's call the numbers x and y.</em>

<em>write out the equations</em>

x + y = 51

x - y = 13

<em>simplify the second equation</em>

x = 13 + y

<em>substitute into the first equation and simplify</em>

(13 + y) + y = 51

13 + 2y = 51

2y = 51 - 13

2y = 38

y = 19

<em>substitute y for 19 in the second equation</em>

x = 13 + y

x = 13 + 19

x = 32

Which visualization tool is more helpful for detecting outliers in data? Select one: a. scatter plot b. histogram c. Boxplot
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

(A) Scatterplot

Step-by-step explanation:

The most helpful visualization to spot outliers would be a scatterplot.

When collecting data on a scatterplot, you can see how the results are similar and which areas have the most answers and such.

There can be multiply outliers on a scatterplot, and they stand out because while most answers will be clumped together, the outliers will not.
