Select ALL the correct answers.

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

(b) The interquartile range of B is greater than the interquartile range of A.

(d) The median of A is the same as the median of B.

Explanation:

Given

$A = \{1, 4, 2, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 1\}$

$10th\ run = 9$

So:

$B = \{1, 4, 2, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 1,9\}$

Required

Select all true statements

(a) & (d) Median Comparisons

$A = \{1, 4, 2, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 1\}$ $B = \{1, 4, 2, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 1,9\}$

$n = 9$ $n = 10$

Arrange the data:

$A = \{1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2,3, 4\}$ $B = \{1,1,1,1,2,2,2,3,4,9\}$

$Median = \frac{n + 1}{2}th$

$Median = \frac{9 + 1}{2}th$ $Median = \frac{10 + 1}{2}th$

$Median = \frac{10}{2}th$ $Median = \frac{11}{2}th$

$Median = 5th$ $Median = 5.5}th$ --- average of 5th and 6th

$Median = 2$ $Median = \frac{2+2}{2} = 2$

Option (d) is correct because both have a median of: 2

(b) & (c) Interquartile Range Comparisons

$A = \{1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2,3, 4\}$ $B = \{1,1,1,1,2,2,2,3,4,9\}$

$n = 9$ $n = 10$

First, calculate the lower quartile (Q1)

$Q_1 = \frac{n + 1}{4}th$ [Odd n] $Q_1 = \frac{n}{4}th$ [Even n]

$Q_1 = \frac{9 + 1}{4}th$ $Q_1 = \frac{10}{4}th$

$Q_1 = \frac{10}{4}th$ $Q_1 = 2.5$

$Q_1 = 2.5th$

This means that:

$Q_1 = 2nd + 0.5(3rd - 2nd)$ $Q_1 = 2nd + 0.5(3rd - 2nd)$

$Q_1 = 1 + 0.5(1- 1)$ $Q_1 = 1+ 0.5(1 - 1)$

$Q_1 = 1$ $Q_1 = 1$

Next, calculate the upper quartile (Q3)

$Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(n + 1)th$ [Odd n] $Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(n)th$ [Even n]

$Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(9 + 1)th$ $Q_3 = \frac{30}{4}th$

$Q_3 = \frac{30}{4}th$ $Q_3 = 7.5th$

$Q_3 = 7.5th$

This means that:

$Q_3 = 7th + 0.5(8th- 7th)$ $Q_3 = 7th + 0.5(8th- 7th)$

$Q_3 = 2 + 0.5(3- 2)$ $Q_3 = 2+ 0.5(4 - 2)$

$Q_3 = 2.5$ $Q_3 = 3$

The interquartile range is $IQR = Q_3 - Q_1$

So, we have:

$IQR = 2.5 - 1$ $IQR = 3 - 1$

$IQR = 1.5$ $IQR =2$

(b) is true because B has a greater IQR than A

(e) This is false because some spread measures (which include quartiles and the interquartile range) changed when the 10th data is included.

The upper quartile and the interquartile range of A and B are not equal

Asexual reproduction leads to no variation between the parent and the offspring. Why could this be a bad thing? A. The child is

MissTica

The answer would be "D". This is because in Asexual Reproduction, there is only one parent, meaning there is only one set of genetics and adaptations that offspring can get. This also means that parents and offspring look almost identical.

What does the theory of evolution tell us about how organisms adapt to their environment over time?

klemol [59]

Answer:

A population changes in response to a change in the environment.

Explanation:

The changes in a population( variations) are due to changes in the environment. These variations confers an advantage to those individual possessing them. This enables such individuals to stand a better chance to survive in the struggle for existence. The better adapted individuals are able to survive and reach the reproductive age and pass over their favourable traits to their offspring.
