Diego wondered how far sixth-grade students could throw a ball. he decided to collect data to find out. he asked 10 friends to throw a ball as far as they could and measured the distance from the starting line to where the ball landed. the table shows the distances he recorded in feet.
40 76 40 63 47 57 49 55 50 53
find the median and iqr of the data set.
on a later day, he asked the same group of 10 friends to throw a ball again and collected another set of data. the median of the second data set is 49 feet, and the iqr is 6 feet.
did the 10 friends, as a group, perform better (or throw farther) in the second round compared to the first round? explain how you know.
were the distances in the second data set more variable or less variable compared to those in the first round? explain how you know.

Answers

Answer 1

The median of the number recorded in the question is 51.5 feet. This is obtained by dividing the sum of two numbers that occur centrally in half.

What is median?

The central value in a list ordered from smallest to largest is the median of a set of values.

What is the Inter-quartile Range (IQR) of an observation?

The formula for the Inter-quartile range is given as:

IQR = Q₃- Q₁ (that is Median of the Upper Half Less the Median of the lower half)

Step 1 - First, let's arrange the numbers sequentially

→  40, 40, 47, 49, 50, 53, 55, 57, 63, 76

Step 2 - Determine the upper and lower halves and their median

If the Lower half is  40, 40, 47, 49, 50, then it's median is 47

If the Upper half is   53, 55, 57, 63, 76, then its median is 57.

Hence:

IQR = 57 - 47

= 10 feet.

Given that the median of the second data set is 49 feet, and the IQR is 6 feet. Did the 10 friends, as a group, perform better (or throw farther) in the second?

No, the friends didn't perform better in the second round because the was a significant drop in the median and the IQR. The median dropped from 51.5 to 47 and the IQR from 10 to 6.


Were the distances in the second data set more variable or less variable compared to those in the first round?

It can be concluded that the distance in the second set of data is less variable when juxtaposed with those form the first set.

You start at (3, -2). You move up 5 units. Where do you end?

Answers

Answer:

You would end at (3, 3).

Explanation:

You would plot your first mark at 3 on a typical xy graph because the first number in ()'s is always x (horizontal line).

Second, because your second mark is y (vertical line), you would plot -2 on the vertical axis.

Your y plot would be 5 more than -2 because you're traveling up five units, giving you (3, 3).

Answer: (3,3)
Explanation: you would end up at (3, 3) because you are originally given (3, 2) and the order goes (x, y). x is the placement on the horizontal line when y is the placement on the vertical line. So since you are starting at 3 to the right and 2 below zero you would move up 5 and get to (3, 3). :)

Answers

Answer:

1.04 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

If 50 is 4liters

Then 13 is x

Use this below equation

Value t is for value y then how much for value z

[tex]x = \frac{t}{y} \times z[/tex]

X = 4/50 *13

X = 1.04liters

What are the solutions of this quadratic equation? 6x2 6 = 12x 18 a. b. c. d.

Answers

The solution to the quadratic equation 6x² + 6 = 12x is x = 1

How to determine the solutions?

The quadratic equation is given as:

6x² + 6 = 12x

Equate the equation to 0

6x²  - 12x + 6 = 0

Expand the equation

6x²  - 6x - 6x + 6 = 0

Factorize the expression

6x(x  - 1) - 6(x - 1) = 0

Factor out x - 1

(6x - 6)(x  - 1) = 0

Split

6x - 6 = 0 or x - 1 = 0

Solve for x in both instance

x = 1 or x = 1

Hence, the solution to the quadratic equation 6x² + 6 = 12x is x = 1

Kate is the captain of a large cruise ship. As she

Paul is the captain of a boat. He sits 15 meters
above the sea. If the radius of the earth is
6,371,000 meters, how much further can Kate see
across the horizon than Paul?

Answers

Kate can see across the horizon by 3.33 times further than Paul.

What is the shape of the horizon?

The volume of the cone can be used to determine how far they can see across the horizon from the cone shape.

Using the volume of the cone

[tex]\mathbf{ V=\pi r \dfrac{h }{3}}[/tex]

For Kate:

Height (h) = 50 mRadius (r) = 6,371,000 m

[tex]\mathbf{ V=\pi r \dfrac{h }{3}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{ V=\pi \times (6371000)^2 \times \dfrac{50 }{3}}[/tex]

V = 2.12526863 × 10¹⁵ m³

For Paul

Height (h) = 15 mRadius (r) = 6,371,000 m

[tex]\mathbf{ V=\pi r \dfrac{h }{3}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{ V=\pi \times (6371000)^2 \times \dfrac{15 }{3}}[/tex]

V = 6.3758059 × 10¹⁴ m³

To determine how much further can kate see across the horizon than Paul, we have:

= 2.12526863 × 10¹⁵ m³/6.3758059 × 10¹⁴ m³

= 3.33 times further.

A circular plate has a diameter of 11 inches. An ant walking along the edge makes 1.5 revolutions in 4
minutes. Approximately how many inches does the ant travel in one minute? Round your answer to the
nearest tenth of an inch.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]12.95 \: inches[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We were told that the diameter of the circular plate is 11 inches. In order to find the distance the ants travel to make one revolution we have to first find the circumference of the circular plate. Circumference is:

[tex]2\pi \: r[/tex]

The radius would be half of the diameter (11). Therefore the radius is 5.5.

[tex]r = 5.5 \: \: \: \: \: \pi = 3.14 \\ cir = 2(3.14) \: (5.5) \\ cir = 6.28 \times 5.5 \\ cir = 34.54[/tex]

Since we found the circumference of the circular plate that means that we know how much one revolution made by the ants would be (34.54). Since the ant made 1.5 revolutions we have to multiply 34.54 by 1.5.

[tex]34.54 \times 1.5 = 51.81[/tex]

So we now know that the ant walked 51.81 inches in 4 minutes, now we have to find the distance he would walk in 1 minute.

Let x be the unknown value*

[tex] 51.81 \:inches = 4 \:minutes \\ x \:inches = 1 \: minutes\\ \\ 51.81=4x \\ \\\frac{51.81}{4} = x \\ \\ 12.95 = x[/tex]

Solve for x and show your steps. Is the solution extraneous? Check your work to show how you determined if the solution is extraneous or not.

The square root of the quantity 2 x minus 7 end quantity equals 1.

Answers

Answer:

Solve for x , 1x − 2+1x + 2=4(x − 2)(x + 2) .

1x − 2+1x + 2=4(x − 2)(x + 2)

(x − 2)(x + 2)(x − 2)+(x − 2)(x + 2)(x + 2)=4(x − 2)(x + 2)(x − 2)(x + 2)

(x−2)+(x+2)=4

2x=4

x=2

But 2 is excluded from the domain of the original equation because it would make the denominator of one of the fractions zero--and division by zero is not allowed!  .  Therefore, it cannot be a root of the original equation.  So, 2 is an extraneous solution. So, the equation has no solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

An equal when substitute x = 4, the solution is not extraneous the solution x = 4 is valid for the original equation.

The equation is: √(2x - 7) = 1

Step 1: Square both sides of the equation to remove the square root:

(√(2x - 7))² = 1²

Simplify:

2x - 7 = 1

Step 2: Add 7 to both sides to isolate the term with "x":

2x - 7 + 7 = 1 + 7

Simplify:

2x = 8

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2 to solve for x:

2x / 2 = 8 / 2

Simplify:

x = 4

Now, we have found that the solution for x is 4.

To check if the solution is extraneous, we need to substitute the value of x back into the original equation and see if both sides are still equal:

Original equation: √(2x - 7) = 1

Substitute x = 4:

√(2(4) - 7) = 1

Simplify:

√(8 - 7) = 1

√1 = 1

Magnitude and direction of u + v + w is equals to 57.871 and 19°.

What is vectors?

"Vectors are those quantity of which represents both direction as well magnitude."

According to the question,

As shown in diagram we have,

u + v + w

   = (wcos30°)[tex]\^{i}[/tex] + (wsin30°)[tex]\^{j}[/tex] +(vcos20°)[tex]\^{j}[/tex] - (vsin40°)[tex]\^{i}[/tex] -(ucos40°)[tex]\^{i}[/tex] -(usin40°)[tex]\^{j}[/tex]

  = ( wcos30° - vsin40° - ucos40°)[tex]\^{i}[/tex] + (wsin30°+ vcos20° - usin40°)[tex]\^{j}[/tex]

   

Substitute the value of ║w║ = 40 ,║v║=60,and ║u║= 90 we get,

u + v +w

= (  40cos30° - 60sin40° - 90cos40°)[tex]\^{i}[/tex] + (40sin30°+ 60cos20° - 90sin40°)[tex]\^{j}[/tex]

= ( -54.8242)[tex]\^{i}[/tex] + (18.5307)[tex]\^{j}[/tex]

Therefore,

Magnitude = √(-54.8242)² +(18.5307)²

                  =√3349.0798

                  = 57.8712

   tanθ = ( 0.3380)

⇒θ = tan⁻¹ (0.3380)

     = 18.67

    ≈ 19°

Hence, magnitude and direction of u + v + w is equals to 57.871 and 19°.
