Answer:

Q1 = 30.25 minutes

Q2 = 42.5 minutes

Q3 = 40 minutes  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, In Question

  • The stem and leaf diagram (key 2 I 1)

Stem | Leaves

2        |  1 3 5 5 5 8

3        |  1 5 6 7 8 9

4        |  2 3 4 6 6 6 8

5        |  2 2 4 5 7 7 8

  • We need to find the quartiles Q1, Q2 and Q3. We know that,

Q1 = (1/4)*(n+1)th value

Q2 = (1/2)*(n+1)th value

Q3 = (3/4)*(n+1)th value

where n is the total number of co-workers 26.

  • So, Q1 = (1/4)*(26+1)th value

             Q1 = 6.75th value

we need to count the leaves in the plot starting from the first one until we reach the 6.75th value. So, by counting, we conclude that the 6.75th value lies between the 6th and 7th value i.e. 28 and 31.

Q1 = 28 + (31-28)*0.75

    = 28 + 2.25

Q1 = 30.25 minutes

  • Now, Q2 = (1/2) * (26+1)th value

                       = 13.5th value.

From the plot, we find that the 13.5th value lies in the middle of the 13th and 14th values i.e. 42 and 43. So,

Q2 = (42+43)/2

     = 85/2  

Q2 = 42.5 minutes

  • And, Q3 = (3/4)*(26+1)th value

                      = 20.25th value

From the plot. we find that the 20.25th value lies somewhere between the 20th and 21st value i.e. 52 and 52. So,

Q3 = 40 + (52-52)*0.25

    = 40 + 0

Q3 = 40 minutes

Answer: the depth of the trench is 3685 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The hole is approximately 347 yards wide. This means that the diameter of the hole is 347 yards.

The formula for determining the volume of a cylinder is expressed as

Volume = πr²h

Where

r represents the radius of the cylinder or hole.

h represents the height or depth of the cylinder or hole.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

From the information given,

Volume = 348289500 ft³

Radius = diameter/2 = 347/2 = 173.5 ft

Therefore,

348289500 = 3.14 × 173.5² × h

348289500 = 94521.065h

h = 348289500/94521.065

h = 3685 feet

Please help I will give brainliest IF IT IS CORRECT
Andreyy89

Answer:

third graph and (3, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2/3x - 3

y = -2x + 5

2/3x - 3 = -2x + 5

2 2/3x = 8

8/3x = 8

8x = 24

x = 3

find 'y'

y = -2(3) + 5

y = -1

The third graph is correct because it shows both a line intersecting the y-axis at -3 and the negative slope line is crossing at +5

Which expression is equivalent to 1.5 raised to the fifth power divided by 0.7 raised to the fourth power, all raised to the thi
harina [27]

The expression which is equivalent to the given expression as in the task content is; 1.5 raised to the fifteenth power divided by 0.7 raised to the twelfth power.

<h3>What is the expression which is equivalent to the given expression?</h3>

According to the task content, it follows that the expression given is;

(1.5⁵/0.7⁴)³

= 1.5^(3×5) /0.7^(4×3)

= 1.5¹⁵/0.7¹².

Hence, the expression which is equivalent is; 1.5 raised to the fifteenth power divided by 0.7 raised to the twelfth power.
