Mathematics

Answer:

Ivy = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Dennis : Ivy = 7 : 4

Required

Determine the amount of sweet Ivy gets when Dennis = 42

We have:

Dennis : Ivy = 7 : 4 and

Dennis = 42

Substitute 42 for Dennis in Dennis : Ivy = 7 : 4

42 : Ivy = 7 : 4

Convert to fraction

\frac{42}{Ivy} = \frac{7}{4}

Cross Multiply:

Ivy * 7 = 42 * 4

Divide through by 7

\frac{Ivy * 7}{7} = \frac{42 * 4}{7}

Ivy = \frac{42 * 4}{7}

Ivy = 6* 4

Ivy = 24

Find the interquartile range of the data.
SCORPION-xisa [38]
The correct answer is D.14.
The interquartile range is the difference between the Upper Quartile and the Lower Quartile of a data set.

By arranging the numbers in the stem and leaf plot from lowest to highest value, you get an even set of data (31,33,35,41,43,46,48,49,49,50). By dividing the set into two, you get a lower half of your data (31,33,35,41,43) and an upper half (46,48,49,49,50). The lower quartile is the median or the midpoint of the lower half of your data while upper quartile is for the upper half. The lower quartiles is 35 and upper quartile is 49. The difference between the two is 14.

Is this a function?
vredina [299]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

To be a function, the graph must pass the vertical line test.

The vertical line test is simple. Imagine you draw an infinite number of vertical lines. In all of these lines, it should never hit the function twice in the same x value.

For example, if it hits (4, 2) and (4, 7), the graph is not a function because there are two points with the same x value.
