-16 + 3n = -(8 + 5n)
The - sign outside the parentheses acts as a -1, and so it is distributed to each term in the parentheses.
-16 + 3n = -8 - 5n
+16
3n = 8 - 5n
+5n
8n = 8
/8
n = 1
*see attachment for the diagram of the two box plots referred to here.
Answer:
2 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The median of a box plot is the data value that lies exactly where the vertical line divides the box into two.
Therefore:
Median for Class 1 = 17 inches
Median for class 2 = 15 inches
The difference in the medians of both box plots = 17 - 15 = 2 inches
Answer:
5 inches out of a foot would be a fraction 5/12.
Step-by-step explanation:
