14,15,15,17,19,20,21,23,24
19 is median
15+15/2=15 is first quartile
Answer:
3.6 lb
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the decimal of a fraction, you simply divide the numerator by the denominator. 3 divided by 5 equals 0.6, which is added to the end of your whole number.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A direct variation equation is of the form
y = kx,
where, in words, it reads "y varies directly with x" or "y varies directly as x". In order to use this as a model, we have to have enough information to solve for k, the constant of variation. The constant of variation is kind of like the slope in a straight line. It rises or falls at a steady level; it is the rate of change.
We have that a vet gives a dose of three-fifths mg to a 30 pound dog. If the dose varies directly with the weight of the dog, then our equation is
d = kw and we need to find k in order to have the model for dosing the animals.

Divide both sides by 1/30 to get k alone.
and

Our model then is

This means that for every pound of weight, the dog will get one-fiftieth of a mg of medicine.
the answer is going to be 6.0
Step-by-step explanation:
1.5 + 1.5 = 3
3 + 3 = 6
The trick is to write appropriate equations and then solve the system of equations you've created.
"sum of two numbers is -5:" x + y = -5
"difference is -1:" x-y = -1
Add these two equations together. This will cause y to drop out, and you will be left with an equation in x alone:
2x = - 6, so x = -3. Subst. -3 for x in either equation, above, and find the corresponding y value.
Then write your solution as (-3, y ) (write in your value for y).
