what are the minimum first quartile median third quartile and the maximum of the data set? 9,20,4,18,4,18,20,9

den301095 [7]

<u>Answers</u>
1. Minimum = 4
2. First quartile = 6.5
3. Median = 13.5
4. Third quartile = 19
5. Maximum = 20

<u>Explanation</u>
To calculate the measure of central tendency, you first arrange the set of the data in ascending order.
The set of data given will be;
4, 4, 9, 9, 18, 18, 20, 20.

Part 1:
The minimum value of the data is 4.

Part 2:
The first quatile is the median of the lower half which is comprised by:
4, 4, 9, 9

1st quartile = (4+9)÷2
= 13÷2
= 6.5

Part 3:
Median of the data is;

Median = (9+18)÷2
=27÷2
= 13.5

Part 4:
3rd quartile is the median of the upper half which comprises of;
18, 18, 20, 20.

3rd quartile = (18+20)÷2
= 48÷2
= 19

Part 5
The maximum of the set of data is 20.

A population, P(t) (in millions) in year t, increases exponentially. Suppose P(9)=16 and P(18)=24. a) Find a formula for the pop

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer: $\frac{32}{3}\left ( 1.0460\right )^t$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Population changes exponentially

$P\left ( t\right )=ab^t$

$P\left ( 9\right )=16$ ------1

$P\left ( 9\right )=16=ab^8$

$P\left ( 18\right =24=ab^{18}$ -----2

divide 1 & 2 we get

$\frac{24}{16}=\frac{b^{18}}{b^9}$

$\frac{3}{2}=b^9$

Substitute $b^9$ in 1 we get

$a=\frac{32}{3}$

Thus $P\left ( t\right )=\frac{32}{3}\left ( 1.0460\right )^t$

And angle measures 54° more than the measure of its complementary angle what is the measure of each angle

Mashutka [201]

Answer:
The measure of the angles are 72 degrees and 18 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two angles are complementary, then their sum is equal to 90 degrees
Let
x -----> the measure of an angle
y-----> the measure of he other angle
we know that
x+y=90 -----> y=90-x -----> equation A
x=y+54 ----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y
y=90-(y+54)
y=90-y-54
2y=36
y=18°
Find the value of x
x=y+54 -----> x=18+54=72°
therefore
The measure of the angles are 72 degrees and 18 degrees

Given that α and β are the roots of the quadratic equation <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2x%5E%7B2%7D%20%2B6x-7%3Dp" id="Tex

siniylev [52]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\sf \ \ \ p=-11 \ \ \ }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

$\alpha \text{ and } \beta \text{ are the roots of the following equation}$

$2x^2+6x-7=p$

It means that

$2\alpha^2+6\alpha-7=p \\\\2\beta ^2+6\beta -7=p \\\\$

And we know that

$\alpha= 2\cdot \beta$

So we got two equations

$2(2\beta)^2+6\cdot 2 \cdot \beta -7=p \\\\8\beta^2+12\beta -7=p\\\\ and \ 2\beta ^2+6\beta -7=p \ So \\\\\\8\beta^2+12\beta -7 = 2\beta ^2+6\beta -7\\\\6\beta^2+6\beta =0\\\\\beta(\beta+1)=0\\\\ \beta =0 \ or \ \beta=-1$

For $\beta =0, \ \ \alpha =0, \ \ p = -7$

For $\beta =-1, \ \ \alpha =-2, \ \ p= 2-6-7=-11, \ p=2*4-12-7=-11$

I assume that we are after two different roots so the solution for p is p=-11

b) $\alpha +2 =-2+2=0 \ and \ \beta+2=-1+2=1$

So a quadratic equation with the expected roots is

$x(x-1)=x^2-x$

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you
