The common difference is the constant that you get when you get the difference between any term and the one preceding it. In this case:
(3--4)=(10-3)=(17-10)=d=7
We can create infinite no of triangle because we can take same angles but with different measures we can create infinite no of triangle.
Assume that the data for both movies and basketball games are normally distributed.
Therefore, the median and the mean are assumed equal.
The standard deviation, σ, is related to the interquartile range by
IQR = 1.35
From the data, we can say the following:
Movies:
Range = 150 - 60 = 90 (approx)
Q1 = 62 (approx), first quartile
Q3 = 120 (approx), third quartlie
Q2 (median) = 90 (approx)
IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 58
σ = IQR/1.35 = 58/1.35 = 43
Basketball:
Range = 150 - 90 = 60 approx
Q1 = 95 (approx)
Q3 = 145 (approx)
Q2 = 125 (approx)
IQR = 145 - 95 = 50
σ = 50/1.35 = 37
Test the given answers.
A. The IQRs are approximately equal, so they are not good measures of spread. This is not a good answer.
B. The std. deviation is a better measure of spread for basketball. This is not a good answer.
C. IQR is not a better measure of spread for basketball games. This is not a good answer.
D. The standard deviation is a good measure of spread for both movies and basketball. This is the best answer.
Answer: D
C is the answer because with this kind of math the answer can be Neg or Postive <span />
