Can anybody tell me what is a stem-and-leaf plot and a example

The following examples provide some practice with stem-and-leaf plots, as well as explaining some details of formatting, and showing how to create a "key" for your plot.

<span> Subjects in a psychological study were timed while completing a certain task. Complete a stem-and-leaf plot for the following list of times: </span>

7.6,  8.1,  9.2,  6.8,  5.9,  6.2,  6.1,  5.8,  7.3,  8.1,  8.8,  7.4,  7.7,  8.2

The first thing I'll do is reorder this list. It isn't required, but it surely makes life easier. My ordered list is:

5.8,  5.9,  6.1,  6.2,  6.8,  7.3,  7.4,  7.6,  7.7,  8.1,  8.1,  8.2,  8.8,  9.2

These values have one decimal place, but the stem-and-leaf plot makes no accomodation for this. The stem-and-leaf plot only looks at the last digit (for the leaves) and all the digits before (for the stem). So I'll have to put a "key" or "legend" on this plot to show what I mean by the numbers in this plot. The ones digits will be the stem values, and the tenths will be the leaves.

Stem<span> and </span>Leaf Plots<span>. A </span>Stem<span> and </span>Leaf Plot<span> is a special table where each data value is split into a "</span>stem" (the first digit or digits) and a "leaf" (usually the last digit).


This example<span> has two lists of values. Since the values are similar, I can </span>plot<span> them all on one </span>stem-and-leaf plot<span> by drawing </span>leaves<span> on either side of the </span>stem<span> I will use the tens digits as the </span>stem<span> values, and the ones digits as the </span>leaves<span>. Since "9" (in the Econ 101 list) has no tens digit, the </span>stem<span> value will be "0".</span>

<span>Hope this helped</span>

Solve the rational inequality x-2/x + x+2/x+3 &lt; 3/2 represent your answer using a number line and using interval notation
Firdavs [7]

Answer and explanation:

To solve the inequality x-2/x + x+2/x+3 < 3/2 we have to first simplify the expressions on the left side of the inequality sign. And so we multiply x by the expressions on the left side to eliminate fractions:

=x(x-2/x)+x(x+2/x)+x(3)< 3/2

=x-2+x+2+3x < 3/2

=5x < 3/2

x < 3/2/5

x < 3/2×5/1

x < 15/2

x < 7 1/2 or 7. 5

A. $25
The explanation would be because 365-105=206 and then double 105 which would be 210 and then subtract that from 206 which would be 50 then divide that by 2 and you would get 25
