Whats the value of -6

What is the interquartile range of the data set

Verizon [17]

There are many methods of doing this. This one finds the median; however, instead of halving, you can use quarters instead.

First order the data, ascendingly:

10, 17, 18, 18, 18, 20, 20, 25, 25, 30, 30

Find the median:

For an even number of values: The number of values / 2

For an odd number of values: The number of values + 1 / 2

11 is odd.

11 + 1 / 2

12 / 2 = 6

The median is at the 6th position.

10, 17, 18, 18, 18, 20, 20, 25, 25, 30, 30

The median is 20.

Other method:

You don't need this step.

Using the values lower than the median, exclusive, find the median of the lower values;

For an odd number of values: The number of values + 1 / 2

10, 17, 18, 18, 18

5 + 1 / 2 = 6 / 2 = 3

The median of the lower values is at position 3.

This is the lower quartile.

10, 17, 18, 18, 18

Other method:

For an odd number of values: The number of values + 1 / 4

11 + 1 / 4 = 12 / 4 = 3

10, 17, 18, 18, 18, 20, 20, 25, 25, 30, 30

Using the values greater than the median, exclusive, find the median:

For an odd number of values: The number of values + 1 / 2

20, 25, 25, 30, 30

5 + 1 / 2 = 6 / 2 = 3

The median of the upper values is at position 3.

20, 25, 25, 30, 30

This is 25.

This is the upper quartile.

Other method:

For an odd number of values: (The number of values + 1 / 4) * 3

(11 + 1 / 4) * 3 = (12 / 4) * 3 = 3 * 3 = 9

10, 17, 18, 18, 18, 20, 20, 25, 25, 30, 30

Your interquartile range is 3 - 25

25 - 3 = 21

Find dy/dx if f(x) = (x + 8)^3x.

vlabodo [156]

This is quite a complex problem. I wrote out a really nice solution but I can't work out how to put it on the website as the app is very poorly made. Still, I'll just have to type it all in...

Okay so you need to use a technique called logarithmic differentiation. It seems quite unnatural to start with but the result is very impressive.

Let y = (x+8)^(3x)

Take the natural log of both sides:

ln(y) = ln((x+8)^(3x))

By laws of logarithms, this can be rearranged:

ln(y) = 3xln(x+8)

Next, differentiate both sides. By implicit differentiation:

d/dx(ln(y)) = 1/y dy/dx

The right hand side is harder to differentiate. Using the substitution u = 3x and v = ln(x+8):

d/dx(3xln(x+8)) = d/dx(uv)

du/dx = 3

Finding dv/dx is harder, and involves the chain rule. Let a = x+ 8:

v = ln(a)
da/dx = 1
dv/da = 1/a

By chain rule:

dv/dx = dv/da * da/dx = 1/a = 1/(x+8)

Finally, use the product rule:

d/dx(uv) = u * dv/dx + v * du/dx = 3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8)

This overall produces the equation:

1/y * dy/dx = 3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8)

We want to solve for dy/dx, achievable by multiplying both sides by y:

dy/dx = y(3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8))

Since we know y = (x+8)^(3x):

dy/dx = ((x+8)^(3x))(3x/(x+8) + 3ln(x+8))

Neatening this up a bit, we factorise out 3/(x+8):

dy/dx = (3(x+8)^(3x-1))(x + (x+8)ln(x+8))

Well wasn't that a marathon? It's a nightmare typing that in, I hope you can follow all the steps.

I hope this helped you :)

PLEASE HELP ME UNDERSTAND! I don’t know how to find.... ML , CD, AC, UW (one explanation is ok too)

nlexa [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

So the way you do this is if it says 'Find AC' and on the angle you see different letters connect then on the lines and name the angle

More that 90°= Obtuse

90° angle= 90° angle

Less than a 90° angle= isosolines angle

Solve the following system of equations by linear combination: 5x 2y = 14 y = x – 7

natta225 [31]

I would use subsitution
y=x-7
sub x-7 for every x
5x+2(x-7)=14
5x+2x-14=14
add 14 to both sides
7x=28
divide both sides by 7
x=4
sub
y=x-7
y=4-7
y=-3

x=4
y=-3
(4,-3)

What is the solution to the equation 2/3x-5/6=-5/12x+1/4

vlabodo [156]

Answer: X=13/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Multiply Both sides by 12

8x-10=5x+3

2. Collect the like terms, calculate the sum

8x-5x=3+10

3.Divide both sides by 3

3x=13

Answer X=13/3

Alternative Form,

X= 4 1/3, X=4.3
