Step-by-step explanation:

The steps to find an outlier:

1. Put the data in numerical order.

2. Find the median.

3. Find the medians for the top and bottom parts of the data. This divides the data into 4 equal parts.

The median with the smallest value is called Q1. The median for all the values - usually just called the median is also called Q2. The median with the largest value is Q3.

4. Subtract...Q3 - Q1. This value is the InterQuartileRange or IQR. Remember that the range means taking the largest minus the smallest. This is a special range having to do with the quartiles.

5. Multiply...1.5 * IQR

6. Take your answer from #5 and do 2 things with it. A). Subtract it from Q1 and B) Additional to Q3.

7. Look at all your data points. If any are SMALLER than Q1 - 1.5 *IQR, they are outliers. If any are LARGER than Q3 + 1.5 *IQR, they are also outliers.

For your data....the median, Q2 is

(43+38)/2 = 40.5.

Q1 = (30+26)/2 = 28.

Q3 = (54+52)/2 = 53

The IQR is 53 - 28 = 25

1.5 * IQR = 37.5

Q1 - 37.5 = 28 - 37.5 = -9.5. There is no data value less than -9.5.

Q3 + 37.5 = 53 + 37.5 = 90.5. there is no data value greater than 90.5.

My conclusion is that there are no outliers in this data.

I hope this helps!

PLEASE HELP ASAP! WILL GIVE BRAINLEIST!<br> Find the area of the shaded region. Use pi = 3.14
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Square

The side length of the square = 8 cm

The area of the square = s^2

The area of the square = 8^2 = 64

Circle

r = d/2

r = 8/2

r = 4

Area of the circle = pi r^2

Area of the circle = 3.14 * 16

Area of the circle = 50.24

Shaded Area

Area of the Shaded area = area Square - Area Circle

                                          = 64 - 40.24

                                          = 23.76

10090 7 Each railroad car in a train set is 6 inches in length. The railroad track is 5 feet long. How many railroad cars can it
Orlov [11]

Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Length of railroad car = 6 inches
The length of railroad track = 5 feet
We will convert this length into inches.
1 feet = 12 inches
5 feet = 12*5 = 60 inches
Let,
x be the number of cars.
Number of cars * Length of each car = Length of track

Dividing both sides by 6

10 cars can fit on railroad track.
