Answer:

119

Step-by-step explanation:

Find 10% by dividing by 10, then halve it to get 5%. The answers are 14 and 7 accordingly.

Add them together to get 15%, which is now 21.

Take 21 off of 140 to get the answer, which is 119.

ALTERNATIVE METHOD - CALCULATOR

To solve the question using a calculator and with only one equation, multiply the number by 0.85 to find 85% of the number, and there's your answer.

Answer:

The first quartile is 61 and the third quartile is 63.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given dot plot is noticed that

Temperature                  frequency            

   59                                   0

   60                                   2

   61                                    3

   62                                   3

   63                                   4

   64                                   2

   65                                   1

 Total                                 15

It means the data is in the form of

60,60,61,61,61,62,62,62,63,63,63,63,64,64,65

The median of data is middle term. The total number terms is 15. Therefore 7th terms is the median

(60,60,61,61,61,62,62),62,(63,63,63,63,64,64,65)

Now, we have 7 ters before median and 7 terms after median.

First quartile is the middle term of minimum value and median and third quartile is the middle term of maximum value and median.

So, 4th term is first quartile and 12th term is third quartile.

(60,60,61),61,(61,62,62),62,(63,63,63),63,(64,64,65)

Therefore the first quartile is 61 and the third quartile is 63.
