Answers: B, C, F</h3>
Each of these are closed figures formed by straight line segments. Think of fencing in an area (not necessarily a rectangle) using various straight fence sections. The length of each section does not have to be the same.
Side notes:
- Choice A is not a polygon because the figure is not closed.
- Choice D is not a polygon because it is not composed of line segments only. Choice D is an ellipse instead.
- Choice E is not a polygon due to the curved portion.
Answer:
22.8 and 37.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the
The weights (in pounds) of 18 preschool children are
32, 20, 25, 27, 31, 22, 30, 23, 44, 37, 33, 45, 41, 24, 34, 21, 39, 29
To find its 20th percentile and 75th percentile.
In ascending order we get like this
Position X (Asc. Order)
1 20
2 21
3 22
4 23
5 24
6 25
7 27
8 29
9 30
10 31
11 32
12 33
13 34
14 37
15 39
16 41
17 44
18 45
Percentile position = (no of entries +1)20/100 = 19/5 = 3.8
Since posiiton is not integer we use interpolation method.
The value of 3.8 - 3 = 0.8 corresponds to the proportion of the distance between 22 and 23 where the percentile we are looking for is located at.
Hence 20th percentile = 
So answer is 22.8
----------------------
75th percentile
Percentile posiiton = 19(75)/100 = 14.25
75th percentile= 
This is how you solve it; but first of all convert the percent into a decimal;55%= 0.55
0.55x = 164 (divide by 0.55 on both sides)
x = 164/0.55
x = 298.18 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
so 164 is 55% of 298.18(rounded)
