How to find interquartilte range

<h3>Answer:  Choice C) 8.5</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

Each x represents a data point location.

So, for example, having an x over 60 means 60 is part of the set.

The set of values we're working with is

{59,60,61,63,63,64,66,68,70,71,71,73}

The repeated values are due to the fact we have a stack of two 'x' markers, and they occur at 63 and 71.

To find the IQR (interquartile range), we'll first need to find the median of this set. That's the middle most value.

Count out the number of values to find that there are n = 12 values.

The list splits into two halves that are n/2 = 12/2 = 6 items each

Between slots 6 and 7 is where the median is located.

The value in slot 6 is 64 and the value in slot 7 is 66. Average those two items to get (64+66)/2 = 65

The median is 65

---------------------------------

Next, we'll form two groups L and U such that

L = set of items lower than the median

U = set of items larger than the median

Because n is even, we simply just break the original set into two equal groups (6 items each)

L = {59,60,61,63,63,64}

U = {66,68,70,71,71,73}

The values of Q1 and Q3 represent the medians of L and U in that order.

The median of set L is (61+63)/2 = 62, so Q1 = 62

The median of set U is (70+71)/2 = 70.5, which is Q3

-----------------------------------

To summarize everything so far, we have found

  • Q1 = 62
  • Q3 = 70.5

Subtract those items to get the IQR

IQR = Q3 - Q1

IQR = 70.5 - 62

IQR = 8.5 which points us to choice C as the final answer.

Determine the value of B such that the line defined by 8x + By + 92 = 0 passes through the point (-4,12).
zvonat [6]
8x + By + 92 = 0

(-4; 12) ⇒ x = -4; y = 12

subtitute

8 · (-4) + 12B + 92 = 0
-32 + 12B + 92 = 0
12B + 60 = 0    |subtract 60 from both sides
12B = -60    |divide both sides by 12

B = -5

The brand manager for a brand toothpaste must plan a campaign designed to increase brand recognition. He wants to first determin
bulgar [2K]

We need to find out how many adults must the brand manager survey in order to be 90% confident that his estimate is within five percentage points of the true population percentage.

From the given data we know that our confidence level is 90%. From Standard Normal Table we know that the critical level at 90% confidence level is 1.645. In other words, Z_{Critical}=1.645.

We also know that E=5% or E=0.05

Also, since, \hat{p} is not given, we will assume that \hat{p}=0.5. This is because, the formula that we use will have \hat{p}(1-\hat{p}) in the expression and that will be maximum only when \hat{p}=0.5. (For any other value of \hat{p}, we will get a value less than 0.25. For example if, \hat{p} is 0.4, then 1-\hat{p}=0.6 and thus, \hat{p}(1-\hat{p})=0.24.).

We will now use the formula

n=(\frac{Z_{Critical}}{E})^2\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})

We will now substitute all the data that we have and we will get

n=(\frac{1.645}{0.05})^2\times0.5(1-0.5)

n=(32.9)^2\times0.25

n=270.6025

which can approximated to n=271.

So, the brand manager needs a sample size of 271
