Answer:

Answer to Part A: To solve this we must first find out how much of a discount is there. First we must divide 49.99 by 2 which equals about 24.99. After that we minis the discount with the original price, which equals 25.00. Then we divide 25.00 by 8 which equals 3.12. So then the sales tax must be 3.12 dollars.

Answer to Part B- First do all the math from Part A, then just add 3.12 to the price of 25.00. Which equals 28.12 so the answer must be 28.12 Dollars.

the area of a reactangle mirror is 11 11/16 square feet the width of the mirror is 2 2/4 feet. if there is a 5 foot tall space o
77julia77 [94]
So square feet is area which is legnth times width or area=lw or a=lw

width=w=2 2/4
2/4=1/2
w=2 1/2=5/2

a=lw
11 11/16=187/16
187/16=l(5/2)

multiply both sides by 2/5 to clear the fraction (1/2 times 2/1=2/2=1)

374/80=legnth
simplify
374/80=187/40=4 27/40=legnth

legnh must be less than 5 and 4 and 27/40 is less than 5 so it will fit

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.
