Answer: +21

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given, we are informed that at first down, a football team lost 16 yd and they after two downs, the team had an overall gain of 5 yd.

The number of yards that were gained on second down can be represented by x. We can then form the question as an equation as:

x - 16 = 5

x = 5 + 16

x = 21

The team gained 21 yards.

The following table shows scores obtained in an examination by B.Ed JHS Specialism students. Use the information to answer the q

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

(a) The cumulative frequency curve for the data is attached below.

(b) (i) The inter-quartile range is 10.08.

(b) (ii) The 70th percentile class scores is 0.

(b) (iii) the probability that a student scored at most 50 on the examination is 0.89.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

To make a cumulative frequency curve for the data first convert the class interval into continuous.

The cumulative frequencies are computed by summing the previous frequencies.

The cumulative frequency curve for the data is attached below.

(b)

(i)

The inter-quartile range is the difference between the third and the first quartile.

Compute the values of Q₁ and Q₃ as follows:

Q₁ is at the position:

$\frac{\sum f}{4}=\frac{100}{4}=25$

The class interval is: 34.5 - 39.5.

The formula of first quartile is:

$Q_{1}=l+[\frac{(\sum f/4)-(CF)_{p}}{f}]\times h$

Here,

l = lower limit of the class consisting value 25 = 34.5

(CF) $_{p}$ = cumulative frequency of the previous class = 24

f = frequency of the class interval = 20

h = width = 39.5 - 34.5 = 5

Then the value of first quartile is:

$Q_{1}=l+[\frac{(\sum f/4)-(CF)_{p}}{f}]\times h$

$=34.5+[\frac{25-24}{20}]\times5\\\\=34.5+0.25\\=34.75$

The value of first quartile is 34.75.

Q₃ is at the position:

$\frac{3\sum f}{4}=\frac{3\times100}{4}=75$

The class interval is: 44.5 - 49.5.

The formula of third quartile is:

$Q_{3}=l+[\frac{(3\sum f/4)-(CF)_{p}}{f}]\times h$

Here,

l = lower limit of the class consisting value 75 = 44.5

(CF) $_{p}$ = cumulative frequency of the previous class = 74

f = frequency of the class interval = 15

h = width = 49.5 - 44.5 = 5

Then the value of third quartile is:

$Q_{3}=l+[\frac{(3\sum f/4)-(CF)_{p}}{f}]\times h$

$=44.5+[\frac{75-74}{15}]\times5\\\\=44.5+0.33\\=44.83$

The value of third quartile is 44.83.

Then the inter-quartile range is:

$IQR = Q_{3}-Q_{1}$

$=44.83-34.75\\=10.08$

Thus, the inter-quartile range is 10.08.

(ii)

The maximum upper limit of the class intervals is 69.5.

That is the maximum percentile class score is 69.5th percentile.

So, the 70th percentile class scores is 0.

(iii)

Compute the probability that a student scored at most 50 on the examination as follows:

$P(\text{Score At most 50})=\frac{\text{Favorable number of cases}}{\text{Total number of cases}}$

$=\frac{10+4+10+20+30+15}{100}\\\\=\frac{89}{100}\\\\=0.89$

Thus, the probability that a student scored at most 50 on the examination is 0.89.

I need help with this

marysya [2.9K]

Plug in -8 for x to get 8(-8)+8y=-48. then you have -64+8y=-48. add 64 to the right side of the equation to get 16. now you have 8y=16. divide by 8 to have the variable by itself so y=2.
