Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of small hat purchased, y represent the number of medium hat purchased and z represent the number of large hat purchased.
Since a total of 47 hats where purchased, hence:
x + y + z = 47 (1)
Also, he spent a total of $302, hence:
5.5x + 6y + 7z = 302 (2)
He purchases three times as many medium hats as small hats, hence:
y = 3x
-x + 3y = 0 (3)
Represent equations 1, 2 and 3 in matrix form gives:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\5.5&6&7\\-3&1&0\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c}47\\302\\0\end{array}\right] \\\\\\\\ \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\5.5&6&7\\-3&1&0\end{array}\right] ^{-1} \left[\begin{array}{c}47\\302\\0\end{array}\right] \\\\\\ \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c}6\\18\\23\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%261%261%5C%5C5.5%266%267%5C%5C-3%261%260%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5C%5Cz%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D47%5C%5C302%5C%5C0%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5C%5Cz%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%261%261%5C%5C5.5%266%267%5C%5C-3%261%260%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5E%7B-1%7D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D47%5C%5C302%5C%5C0%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5C%5Cz%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D6%5C%5C18%5C%5C23%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Therefore he purchases 6 small hats, 18 medium hats and 23 large hats
To return back to -18°C from -10°C, you would have to lower the temperature by -8°C to compensate for the difference.
Hope that helps!
Answer:
<h2>The box plot is the only display that can be used to show the variability of the data.</h2><h2>The median appears clearly on the box plot at the line within the box: 10.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
When we want to represent variability, we use a box plot instead of a dot plot, because the box plot allow us to observe the range of the data set, that is, the minium and the maximum value.
Remember that variability is about the spread of the dataset, and the range is a measure that can give a pretty good idea of it, shown by a box plot.
Therefore, the last hoice is correct.
On the other hand, according to the dot plot, the median is 10, because there are 13 total values, where the central value is 10.
Therefore, the second choice is correct.
First of all you have to make them equal to each other. What I mean is the following
3x+20=2x+40
Then you should just solve for x
