So before anything, rearrange the data so that it's in ascending order: {2,3,9,12,13,14,16,17}

Next, the minimum and maximum are as they seem: the smallest and largest numbers in the data. Looking at our data, <u>2 is our minimum and 17 is our maximum.</u>

Next, to find the median, find the number that is in the middle of the data set. If there isn't one number in the middle, find the average of the two middle numbers to get your median:

\{2,3,9,\overbrace{\boxed{12,13,}}^{\textsf{middle numbers}}14,16,17\}\\\\\frac{12+13}{2}\\\\\frac{25}{2}\\\\12.5

<u>The median is 12.5.</u>

Next, to find the first quartile, or the lower quartile, find the "median" of the numbers to the left of the median.

\overbrace{\{2,\boxed{3,9,}12,}^{\textsf{left of median}}13,14,16,17\}\\\\\frac{3+9}{2}\\\\\frac{12}{2}\\\\6

<u>The first quartile is 6.</u>

Next, to find the third quartile, or the upper quartile, find the "median" of the numbers to the right of the median.

\{2,3,9,12,\overbrace{13,\boxed{14,16,}17\}}^{\textsf{right of median}}\\\\\frac{14+16}{2}\\\\\frac{30}{2}\\\\15

<u>The third quartile is 15.</u>

Write a rule for the nth term of the sequence. Then find a20. Assume the first termis a₁. 86, 79, 72, 65…
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

an = a(n-1) - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

the second term is smaller than the first term 7.

a20 = a19 - 7

a19 = a18 - 7

=> a20 = (a18 - 7) - 7

Then you can accumalate until a1

-> a20 = a1 - 19*7 = 86 - 19*7 = -47

Write a two column proof
NISA [10]
We are given intersecting lines. The measures of a pair of angles forming vertex angles, are 2x+6° and 96°.

The measure of 2 vertex angles is equal, so we solve the equation:

2x+6°=96°, subtract 6° from both sides of the equation
2x=90°,   divide both sides of the equation by 2
x=45°

The teachers at West Elementary are planning a field trip for 385 students. It will cost $1,750 for transportation and $3,080 fo
melomori [17]
The cost needed for the trip is <span>$1,750 for transportation and $3,080 for tickets to the museum.
This makes a total of: 1750 + 3080 = $4830 needed

Now, we have 385 students. Teachers will collect $12 from each. This means that the amount collected would be: 12 * 385 = $4620

Based on the above calculations, the amount needed for the trip is $4830 and the amount collected is $4620.
This means that collecting $12 from each student would not be enough for the trip.</span>
