1. First of all arrange the data set in either ascending or descending order.
12, 19, 24, 26, 31, 38, 53. N = 7 (number of data items)
Median position = 1/2(N + 1)th item = 1/2(7 + 1)th item = 1/2(8)th item = 4th item = 26
First quatile = 1/4(N + 1)th item = 1/4(7 + 1)th item = 1/4(8)th item = 2nd item = 19
Third quatile = 3/4(N + 1)th item = 3/4(7 + 1)th item = 3/4(8)th item = 6th item = 38
Interquatile range = Third quartile - first quatile = 38 - 19 = 19
So 7 x = x2 -18 so you get the quadratic x^2 -7x -18 and then get 2 x -9= -18 and 2 + -9 = -7 so you get (x + 2) ( x - 9) so the positive solution would be x-9 = 0 so x= 9. Hope this helps :)
So first you need to find 1/12 of 375. To do this you need to divide 375 by 12. So, your answer will be 31.25 per week.
4 pounds of books because 60 oz only equals 3.75 pounds.
