A classroom of students has their heights measured (in inches) for statistics investigation. The tallest student in the class is
Serga [27]

Answer:

This mistake has no effect on the median and IQR, since it will be an outlier.

Step-by-step explanation:

xth percentile:

If a measure is said to be in the xth percentile, it means that x% of the measures are smaller than it, and (100-x)% are larger.

Median:

The 50th percentile is called median.

Interquartile Range:

Difference between the 75th and the 25th percentile.

In this question:

Tallest student measures 71 inches, but with a mistake, it was accidentaly entered 711.

However, since the mean and the median are related to the percentiles, in the middle of the distribution, they wont be affected by an outlier such as this.

Les is sending 8 identical catalogs to one of his customers. If the package with the catalogs weighs 6.96 pounds, how much does
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: Each catalog weighs 0.87 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Number of identical catalogs  = 8

Weight of package with the catalogs= 6.96 pounds

Using division operator,

Weight of each catalog  = (Weight of package ) ÷ (Number of identical catalogs)

i.e. Weight of each catalog  =(6.96)÷8 pounds

⇒ Weight of each catalog  = 0.87 pounds

Hence, Each catalog weighs 0.87 pounds

Find the slope and y-intercept for the two linear functions.
tankabanditka [31]

Answer: Slope of the line given in the table: m = - 0.25

Y-intercept of the line given in the table: b = -4

Slope of the line given by the equation: m = 1.5

Y-intercept of the line given by the equation: b = 1

Step-by-step explanation: <u>Slope</u> of an equation is an indication of the steepness and direction of a linear graph. It is denoted as m and it can be calculated as:

m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}  }{x_{2} - x_{1} }

Another way of determining the slope is as the form:

y = mx+b

<u>For the table</u>:

As in the table there are only points:

m = \frac{-3 + 2.5}{-4+6}

m = - 0.25

<u>For the function</u>:

The function is:

y = 3/2x + 1

m = 3/2

m = 1.5

<u>Y-intercept</u> is where the linear function crosses the y-axis, or when x=0. It can also be represented by the letter b.

<u>For the table</u>:

y = mx + b

According to the table, when y = -2.5, x = -6

-2.5 = - 0.25. (-6) + b

b = -2.5 - 1.5

b = -4

<u>For the function:</u>

y = 1.5x + 1

b = 1

In conclusion:

  • For the table: m = - 0.25 b = - 4
  • For the equation: m = 1.5 b = 1
