Answer:

We want to minimize the number of coins. Since there must be AT LEAST 1 coin per pocket, let's put 1 coin in the first 3 pockets.

Pocket #1: 1 coin

Pocket #2: 1 coin

Pocket #3: 1 coin

No two of the remaining pockets are to contain an equal number of coins.

So, from this point on, we cannot put 1 coin in any more pockets (otherwise, we'll break the rule about no more than 3 pockets containing the same number of coins).

To minimize the number of coins, we'll put 2 coins in pocket #4, then 3 in pocket #5 and so on...

Pocket #4: 2 coins

Pocket #5: 3 coins

Pocket #6: 4 coins

Pocket #7: 5 coins

So, the minimum number of coins = 1+1+1+2+3+4+5 =17

the answer is 17

Valentin [98]

The store that has a greater variety of numbers of wristbands sold is the store whose box plot has a greater IQR value.

<h3>How do we Determine Variability in a Box Plot?</h3>
  • Variability of a data distribution that is represented by a box plot can be determined by the interquartile range (IQR) = Upper Quartile (Q3) - Lower Quartile (Q1).
  • See the diagram attached below to understand how to get the Q3 and Q1 of the data distribution.

In conclusion, variability is a measure of IQR. The greater the IQR of a box plot, the greater the variety. Thus, the store that has a greater variety of numbers of wristbands sold is the store whose box plot has a greater IQR value.

Compare the covenant God made with Abraham to the new covenant
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you did not attach options for this question, we can say the following.

The original (first) covenant God made with Abraham was the promise of God to bless the descendants of Abraham. God blessed Abraham and told him that he was going to be the "father" or leader of many tribes. In Genesis, the first book of the Old Testament, God told Abraham to travel to the promised land of Cannan, but he had to make sure that his people would be faithful and loyal to God.

In comparison, the Second Covenant is the one that is referred to in the New Testament, when God, who loves his creatures, sent his own son Jesus to help humans. God promises humans that he will forgive all their sins if they followed Jesus' teachings.
