Answer:

Following are the solution to the given points:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given values:

38, 40, 41, 45, 48, 48, 50, 50, 51, 51, 52, 52, 53, \\\\54, 55, 55, 55, 56, 56, 57, 59, 59, 59, 62, 62, 62, \\ 63, 64, 65,66, 66, 67, 67, 69, 69, 71, 77, 78, 79, 79

Total staff=40

In point a:

To calculate the median number first we arrange the value into ascending order and then collect the even numbers of calls that were also made. Its average of the middle terms is thus the median.

The midterms =55 and 59 so,

Median = \frac{55+59}{2} = \frac{114}{2}=57

In point b:

First-quarter Q_1 = \frac{1}{4} \text{number of 8th call}

                           =\frac{1}{4} \times  30 th \\\\= 7.5 th

The first quarterlies are 7.5th \  \ that  \ is = (7+0.5)th\ \  term

therefore the multiply of 0.5  by calculating the difference of the 7th and 8th term are:

=0.5 \times 0= 0 \\\\\to Q_1 = 50+0=50 \\\\\to Q_3=\frac{3}{4} \text{number of 8th call} \\\\=\frac{3}{4} \times  30 th \\\\=22.5 \ th  = (22+0.5)th  \ \ term

therefore the it is multiply by the 0.5 for the difference of the 22nd and 23rd term:

= 0.5 \times 1=0.5 \\\\\to Q_3= 63+0.5=63.5

In point c:

First decile D_1 = \frac{1}{18} \text{number of 8th call}

= \frac{1}{10} \times  30 th \\\\= 3rd \ \ term\\\\\to D_1= 41 \\\\\to D_9= \frac{9}{10} \times  8\  th\  call\\\\=\frac{9}{10} \times  30 th \\\\=27th \ \ term\\\\\to D9 = 67

In point d:

quartiles are:

Q_1= 51.25 \\\\Q_3=66

The right answers for the decile are:

D_1=45.3 \\\\ D_9=76.4

As for D) P_{33} = 53.53will be available.

The circumference of ruby's old swimming pool is 47.1 feet. Her new swimming pool has a diameter of 21 feet. How much larger is
Alla [95]

The new pool is 18.84 feet larger in circumference than the old one.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Circumference of the pool = 47.1 feet

Diameter of the new pool, d = 21 feet

radius, r = 21/2 feet

Circumference of the new pool = ?

We know:

Circumference = 2πr

where,

r is the radius

On substituting the value:

C = 2 X 3.14 X \frac{21}{2}

C = 65.94 feet

The difference in circumference of the two pools = 65.94 - 47.1 feet

                                                                                  = 18.84 feet

Therefore, the new pool is 18.84 feet larger in circumference than the old one.
