You reverse the inequality symbol if you divide or multiply by a negative number in order to solve the inequality.
Using the mean of the data-set, it is found that the missing height in the stem-and-leaf plot is given by:
D. 65 in.
<h3>What is the mean?</h3>
The mean of a data-set is given by the <u>sum of all observations in the data-set divided by the number of observations</u>.
In this problem, following the key of the stem-and-left plot, there are 8 observations, given as follows:
54, 55, 56, 61, 63, 64, 70 and the missing value x.
The mean is of 61, hence:

423 + x = 61 x 8
x = 65.
Hence option D is correct.

Answer:
Answer D: 8.7 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
First compare the actual diameters of both cables to find out which one is larger. If we write both diameters in fraction form (as they are given), we need to have them expressed with the same denominator for a straight forward comparison:
Bundle A: 
Bundle B: 
So we multiply this last fraction by 2 in numerator and denominator to obtain the same denominator as for Bundle A without actually changing its numerical value: 
So now we compare Bundle A with bundle B, and see that bundle B has the larger diameter: 22/8 inches
The hole has to be 25% larger than this larger diameter, so we estimate 25% of 22/8 in is:
inches
Therefore, the hole must be of diameter 22/8 in plus 0.6875 in = 3.4375 in
Now we convert this value into centimeters by multiplying it by 2.54 (since one inch is 2.54 cm):
3.4375 * 2.54 = 8.73125 cm
which rounded to the nearest tenth as requested in the problem is: 8.7 cm
