The gasoline prices in seven states are $1.96, $2.09, $1.79, $1.61, $1.75, 2.11, and $1.84 what is the median gas price and the difference of the first and third quartiles

Answers

Answer 1
first we must put them in order

1.61, [1.75], 1.79, (1.84), 1.96, [2.09], 2.11

the median (the middle number) = 1.84 <=

the difference of the first and 3rd quartiles (the IQR) = 
2.09 - 1.75 = 0.34 <=
Answer 2

Answer:

Median = $1.84

The difference of the first and third quartiles = $0.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Median

How to calculate the median of a small data or ungrouped data;

1. Arrange the data in ascending or descending order.

2. Choose the middle value. The middle value can be a single value or two value. If the middle value is a single value, then, that value is the median but if the middle values are two, the mean of the two middle values is evaluated to get the median.

Arranging the gasoline prices given in ascending order;

$1.61,  $1.75, $1.79,  $1.84,  $1.96, $2.09, $2.11

The middle value is a single number $1.84 in bold. Therefore, the median is $1.84.  

                         Median = $1.84

First (Lower) Quartile

To calculate for the First (Lower) quartile,

1. Arrange the data give in ascending order.

2. The First (Lower) quartile, Q1 is then calculated using;  

                 [tex]Q1 =\frac{1}{4} (n + 1)^{th}[/tex] term

where n is the total number of terms of the data. In the given question, the total number of terms, n = 7

                 [tex]Q1 =\frac{1}{4} (7 + 1)^{th}[/tex] term

                 [tex]Q1 =\frac{8}{4}^{th}[/tex] term

                 Q1 = 2nd term

3. Select the 2nd term of the given data already arranged in ascending order.

                 $1.61,  $1.75, $1.79,  $1.84,  $1.96, $2.09, $2.11

                 The First Quartile, Q1 = $1.75

Third (Upper) Quartile

To calculate for the third (upper) quartile,

1. Arrange the data give in ascending order.

2. The third (upper) quartile (Q3) is then calculated using;  

                 [tex]Q3 =\frac{3}{4} (n + 1)^{th}[/tex] term

where n is the total number of terms. In the given question, the total number of terms, n = 7

                 [tex]Q3 =\frac{3}{4} (7 + 1)^{th}[/tex] term

                 [tex]Q3 =\frac{24}{4}^{th}[/tex] term

                 [tex]Q3 = 6^{th} term[/tex]

3. Select the [tex]6^{th} term[/tex] of the given data already arranged in ascending order.

                 $1.61,  $1.75, $1.79,  $1.84,  $1.96, $2.09, $2.11

The third (upper) quartile Q3 = $2.09

The difference between the first and third quartiles is called interquartile range.

Now, calculating the difference of the first and third quartiles

                  Interquartile Range = Q3 - Q1

                              $2.09 - $1.75 = $0.34

The difference of the first and third quartiles, Interquartile Range = $0.34

How can sums and differences of cubes be identified for factoring?

Answers

The sum of cubes is given as:
a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b²)

Example for the sum of cubes:

64x³+y³ ⇒ This is the sum of cubes because each term; 64, x³, and y³ are cube numbers

By writing each term as an expression of cube numbers, we have:
(4x)³ + (y)³ ⇒ 64 is 4³
Use the factorization of the sum of cubes, we have:
(4x + y) ( (4x)²- 4xy + y²)
(4x + y) (16x² - 4xy + y²)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The difference of cubes can be factorized as:
(x³ - y³) = (x - y)(x² + xy + y²)

Example
(125x³ - 8y³) = (5x - 2y) ((5x)² + (5x)(2y) + (2y)²)
                     = (5x - 2y) (25x² + 10xy + 4y²)

the time it takes to mow a lawn and the age of the person mowing the lawn

the distance to school and the time you spend at school

the price of a movie ticket and the height of the customer

the price of a piece of cloth and the length of the cloth

Answers

The last one, since one depends on the other

Answer:

The example of a function is:

  The price of a piece of cloth and the length of the cloth.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a function is a relation in which each element of a set is mapped to a single element of the other set.

i.e. an element has just one image.

1)

The time it takes to mow a lawn and the age of the person mowing the lawn.

This is not a example of function since, the time taken by two person's of different age may be same to mow a lawn.

This means that there is  more than one image of a single element i.e. time.

2)

The distance to school and the time you spend at school.

The time one spend at school at different days may be different even if the distance to school is same.

3)

The price of a movie ticket and the height of the customer.

Two person's with different height will buy a movie ticket at the same cost.

Hence, this relation won't be a function.

4)

The price of a piece of cloth and the length of the cloth.

As we know that the price of a cloth is fixed according to the length.

Hence, the relation is a function.

( As corresponding to each price we have a unique length if a piece of clothing )

The baggage limit for an airplane is set at 100 pounds per passenger. thus, for an airplane with 200 passenger seats there would be a limit of 20,000 pounds. the weight of the baggage of an individual passenger is a random variable with a mean of 95 pounds and a standard deviation of 35 pounds. if all 200 seats are sold for a particular flight, what is the probability that the total weight of the passengers' baggage will exceed the 20,000-pound limit?

Answers

At a mean of 95 pounds per passenger and standard deviation of 35 pounds, multiplying this with the total number of passengers = 200, results in:

absolute mean = 95 * 200 = 19,000

absolute std dev = 35 * 200 = 7,000

 

Calculating for the z score:

z = (x – u) / s

where x is sample value = more than 20,000; u is the sample mean = 19,000; s is std dev = 7,000

 

z = (20,000 – 19,000) / 7,000

z = 0.143

 

From the distribution tables,

P (z = 0.14) = 0.5557

 

Therefore a 55.57% chance that it will be more than 20,000 pound limit

Final answer:

Using the Central Limit Theorem, we calculate the probability that the total weight of passengers' baggage exceeds 20,000 pounds for an airplane with 200 passengers to be approximately 0.0217.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we use the Central Limit Theorem which states that if we have a large enough sample size, the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed regardless of the original distribution's shape. Given that the mean weight of an individual passenger's baggage is 95 pounds with a standard deviation of 35 pounds, and that there are 200 passengers, we can calculate the mean and standard deviation of the total baggage weight.

The mean total weight, μtotal, is calculated as the product of the mean individual weight and the number of passengers, so μtotal = 95 pounds × 200 = 19,000 pounds. The standard deviation of the total weight, σtotal, is calculated as the standard deviation of the individual weight multiplied by the square root of the number of passengers, so σtotal = 35 pounds × √200 ≈ 494.97 pounds.

Using the standard normal distribution, we find the z-score for the probability that the total weight exceeds 20,000 pounds by subtracting the mean from the limit and dividing by the standard deviation: z = (20,000 - 19,000) / 494.97 ≈ 2.02.

Looking up this z-score in a standard normal table or using a calculator, we find that the probability of the total baggage weight exceeding 20,000 pounds is approximately 0.0217.

The product of two numbers is 40. if one of the numbers is 5/11, what is the other number?

Answers

Final answer:

To find the other number when the product of two numbers is 40 and one of the numbers is 5/11, we divide 40 by 5/11 to solve for the unknown number. The other number is found to be 88.

Explanation:

The question asks to find the other number when the product of two numbers is 40 and one of the numbers is given as 5/11. To do this, we can set up an equation where the product of 5/11 and the unknown number (which we can call 'x') is equal to 40.

The equation would be: (5/11) × x = 40. To solve for x, we need to do some algebraic rearrangement by dividing both sides of the equation by 5/11. This brings x into the numerator on the left side and shifts the 5/11 to the denominator on the right side. Therefore, we get x = 40 × (11/5).

Next, we multiply 40 by 11/5. This calculation results in x = 88. Thus, the other number is 88.

When is a protractor preferred to a ruler when finding a measurement

Answers

When measuring an angle.

A protractor is preferred over a ruler when measuring angles, especially in geometric shapes or when dealing with rotational aspects. While a ruler is great for measuring lengths and distances, it can't accurately measure angles.

For example, let's say you want to measure the angle between two lines on a piece of paper. A ruler can only give you an approximation by comparing lengths, but a protractor will give you an exact measurement of the angle in degrees.

To use a protractor, align the center hole of the protractor with the vertex of the angle. Then, align one side of the angle with the zero-degree mark on the protractor. Finally, read the number where the second side of the angle intersects the protractor scale. This gives you the precise measurement of the angle.

In conclusion, when dealing with angles, a protractor is the preferred tool for accurate measurements, providing exact angles in degrees.

can someone help answer and explain to me how to solve this? log (lowercase 6) 1/36

Answers

Answer: The log simplifies to -2

-------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------

Explanation:

We will use the log rule that log(x^y) = y*log(x). Call this log rule 1. This log rule basically allows us to pull the exponent down.

Another log rule that we will use is [tex]\log_x\left(x\right) = 1[/tex] where x is any positive real number but x = 1 is NOT allowed. Call this log rule 2.

Because 36 = 6^2, this means that 1/36 = 6^(-2)

-------------

So,

[tex]\log_6\left(\frac{1}{36}\right)=\log_6\left(\frac{1}{6^2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\log_6\left(\frac{1}{36}\right)=\log_6\left(6^{-2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\log_6\left(\frac{1}{36}\right)=-2*\log_6\left(6\right)[/tex] Use log rule 1 (see above)

[tex]\log_6\left(\frac{1}{36}\right)=-2*1[/tex] Use log rule 2 (see above)

[tex]\log_6\left(\frac{1}{36}\right)=-2[/tex] 

This means that the given expression simplifies to -2

You can use a calculator to type in "log(1/36)/log(6)" without quotes and you should get -2 as the answer

㏒₆ [tex] \frac{1}{36} [/tex]
so 6² = 36
therefore, 6⁻² = [tex] \frac{1}{36} [/tex]

A rectangle has an area of 16 ft2. every dimension is multiplied by a scale factor, and the new rectangle has an area of 64 ft2. what was the scale factor?

Answers

1/4 i think, the new rectangle is 4 times the area

Among all rectangles that have a perimeter of 156, find the dimensions of the one whose area is largest. write your answers as fractions reduced to lowest terms.

Answers

P = 2L + 2W

We have a perimeter of 156, so we have

2L + 2W = 156

Let the length = x

2x + 2W = 156

The width is

2W = 156 - 2x

W = 78 - x

The area of a rectangle is A = LW

A = x(78 - x)

A = 78x - x^2

This is an inverted parabola, so there is a maximum value.

78x - x^2 = 0

x(78 - x) = 0

x = 0 or x = 78

The zeros of the parabola are at x = 0 and x = 78.
Since the parabola is symmetric over its vertical axis, the maximum values occurs at the x-value in the middle of 0 to 78, which is 39.

At x = 39, the area has a maximum value.

L = 39 & W = 39

It's a square with side measuring 39.

The dimensions of the one whose area is largest is 39 by 39

The formula for calculating the perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as:

P = 2(L + W)

L is the length of the rectangle

W is the width

Given that the perimeter is 156, hence;

2(L + W) = 156

2L + 2W = 156

L + W = 78

W = 78 - L

The area of the rectangle is expressed as:

A = LW

A = L(78-L)

A = 78L - L^2

To get the dimensions of the one whose area is largest, dA/dL = 0

dA/dL = 78 - 2L

0 = 78 - 2L

2L = 78

L = 78/2

L = 39

Recall that 2(L+W) = 156

2(39 + W) = 156

39 + W = 78

W = 78 - 39

W = 39

Hence the dimensions of the one whose area is largest is 39 by 39
