Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of people that attended the movie.

And y the number of adults that attended the movie

Given;

Percent of adults that attended the movie = 40%

Number of adults that attended the movie y = 20

So,

40% of those that attended the movie area adults.

y = 40% of x

y = 40/100 × x

y = 0.4x

(Ratio of y to x is 4:10 or 0.4)

Making x the subject of formula;

x = y/0.4

Substituting the value of y given;

x = 20/0.4

x = 50

Therefore, 50 people attended the movie.

To make a box and whisker plot, first you write down all of the numbers from least to greatest.

0, 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 10

The median is 4, so that’s the middle line of the plot.

So now we have:
0, 1, 3, [4,] 7, 8, 10

So next we have to find the 1st and 3rd interquartiles..
0, [1,] 3, [4,] 7, [8,] 10

Those are the next 2 points you put on the plot.

Lastly, the upper and lower extremes. These are the highest and lowest numbers in the data.
[0,] 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, [10]

These are the final points on the plot.

To make the box of a box-and-whisker plot, you plot the 3 Medians of the data: 1, 4, and 8, and connect those to make a box that has a line in the middle at 4.

Next, you plot the upper and lower extremes: 0 and 10, by making “whiskers” that connect to the box. So you draw a line from the extremes to the box.
