Set up a proportion
12/8 = x/20
cross multiply
8x = 12*20
8x = 240
divide both sides by 8
x = 30 ounces of cheese
CHECK
12/8 ?=? 30/20
1.5 ?=? 1.5 CHECKS
So the equation you would have to set up would be: (3m)+(2m-5)=90.
If your wondering where I got the 90 from I got it because the question states it is a right angle.
So now you combine like terms:
3m+2m=5m
Which leaves you:
5m+(-5)=90 or 5m-5=90
Then you do the opposite operation by changing subtraction to addition:
5m-5=90
+5
(Don’t forget your do the same on the other side)
5m-5=90
+5 +5
—————-
And then your left with:
5m=95
Then you divide by 5 on both sides by creating a fraction:
5m=95
—- —-
5 5
And you get your answer:
m=19
Answer:
The correct statement is C.
Step-by-step explanation:
A boxplot, also known as a box and whisker plot is a method to demonstrate the distribution of a data-set based on the following 5 number summary,
1. Minimum (shown towards the left of the chart)
2. First Quartile (shown by the left-most line of the box)
3. Median (or the second quartile) (shown as a line in the center of the box)
4. Third Quartile (shown by the right-most line of the box)
5. Maximum (shown towards the right of the chart).
From the provided box plot it can be concluded that:
- Minimum = 3
- First Quartile = 6
- Median = 9
- Third Quartile = 12
- Maximum = 15
The median is a quantity in statistics that points out where the mid-value of a data set is. Half of the data is less than the median and half is more than the median.
The median is 9, i.e. half of the data is less than 9 and half is more than 9.
The correct statement is C.
