Cade gets his phone bill and finds out that he is charged a 20 dollar flat rate and then must also pay .05 cents per minute. Wri

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

1100 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: 35=.05x-20

Why? x is the amount of minutes on his phone. Each minute is 0.05 hence 0.05x. Subtract 20 because that is the flat rate

55=.05x

x=1100

Therefore he was on his phone for 1100 minutes

John & friends brought 4 bags of popcorn and 3 sodas at the movie for a total of 13.50. At the next movie John & friend

scoray [572]

Answer:

The cost of 5 bags of popcorn and 2 sodas is 14.25 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Let x units be the cost of a popcorn bag and y units be cost of soda.

The cost of 4 bags of popcorn and 3 sodas is 13.50.

Thus, we can write the equation:

$4x + 3y = 13.50$

The cost of 2 bags of popcorn and 5 sodas is 12.00

Thus, we can write the equation:

$2x+5y=12$

Solving the two equations, we get,

$4x + 3y-(4x+10y) = 13.5 - 24\\\Rightarrow -7y =10.5\\\Rightarrow y = 1.5\\\Rightarrow 2x + 5(1.5) = 12\\\Rightarrow x = 2.25$

Thus, the cost of popcorn bag is 2.25 units and the cost of a soda is 1.5 units.

Cost of 5 bags and 2 sodas

= $=5x+2y\\=5(2.25) + 2(1.5)\\=14.25$

Thus, cost of 5 bags of popcorn and 2 sodas is 14.25 units.

The five-number summary and the interquartile range for the data set are given as follows:

Minimum: 24.

Lower quartile: 29.

Median: 43.

Upper quartile: 50.

Maximum: 56.

Interquartile range: 50 - 29 = 21.

<h3>What are the median and the quartiles of a data-set?</h3>

The median of the data-set separates the bottom half from the upper half, that is, it is the 50th percentile.

The first quartile is the median of the first half of the data-set.

The third quartile is the median of the second half of the data-set.

The interquartile range is the difference between the third quartile and the first quartile.

In this problem, we have that:

The minimum value is the smallest value, of 24.

The maximum value is the smallest value, of 56.

Since the data-set has odd cardinality, the median is the middle element, that is, the 7th element, as (13 + 1)/2 = 7, hence the median is of 43.

The first quartile is the median of the six elements of the first half, that is, the mean of the third and fourth elements, mean of 29 and 29, hence 29.

The third quartile is the median of the six elements of the second half, that is, the mean of the third and fourth elements of the second half, mean of 49 and 51, hence 50.

The interquartile range is of 50 - 29 = 21.
