Find the 50th percentile, 25th percentile, and 75th percentile.
Answer:
the 50th percentile = 66
The 25th percentile = 35
The 75th percentile = 85
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 11 numbers ,so we are dealing with an odd set of values.
Also ,we notice that the numbers are already in order.
then
the 50th percentile of the set 27, 34, 35, 48, 48, 66, 75, 85, 85, 96, 99
is the 6 number in the list [ 6 = (11+1)/2 ]
Which is 66.
The 25th percentile (the median) of the set 27, 34, 35, 48, 48
is the 3rd number [ 3 = (5+1/)2 ]
Which is 35.
The 75th percentile (the median) of the set 75, 85, 85, 96, 99
is the 3rd number [ 3 = (5+1/)2 ]
Which is 85.

What is a Quadratic Equation?
Quadratic equations are the polynomial equations of degree 2 in one variable of the type [tex]f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c = 0[/tex] where a, b, c, ∈ R and a ≠ 0.The standard form of a quadratic equation is [tex]ax^{2} + bx + c = 0[/tex] .Here, the given equation is (2x+7)(x-5) = - 43 + jx
On simplifying the equation we get,
[tex]2x^{2} -10x+7x-35=-43+jx\\2x^{2} -3x-35+43-jx=0\\2x^{2} -3x-jx+8=0\\2x^{2} -(3+j)x+8=0.....(1)\\[/tex]
By comparing the given equation with the standard form of the quadratic equation we get,
a = 2
b = - (3 + j)
c = 8
Therefore,
[tex](-(3+j))^{2} -4\times2\times8=0\\(3+j)^{2} -64=0\\(3+j)^{2} =64\\[/tex]
Take the square root of both sides,
[tex]\sqrt{(3+j)^{2} }=\sqrt{64} \\[/tex]
3 + j = ±8
Therefore,
3 + j = 8
j = 8 - 3
j = 5
or
3 + j = -8
j = -8 - 3
j = -11
Hence, the possible values of 'j' are -11,5.

Mike brought $15 and Hallie brought $45 to the movie
There are many ways to define an equation. In its simplest form in algebra, the definition of an equation is a mathematical statement that shows that two mathematical expressions are equal.
The value of the variable that makes the equation a true statement is the solution to the equation.
We have to find how much money Mike and Hallie brought to the movie.
Let the money Brought by Mike be $ m and by Hallie be $ h.
Mike and hallie are going to a movie. together they bring $60 in cash
m + h = $ 60.............(1)
Hallie brings three times as much cash as mike does
h = 3 m.......... (2)
Pur the value of h from equation (2) in equation (1)
m + 3 m = $ 60
4 m = $ 60
m = $ 60/4
m = $ 15
put this value of m in equation (2)
h = 3(15)
h = $ 45

There are n cities in a OneWayCountry (country in which every road is a One-Way road). Every pair of cities is connected by exactly one direct one-way road. Show that there exists a city which can be reached from every other city either directly or via at most one other city.
The cities such that this path is [tex]C_{1}[/tex] → [tex]C_{2}[/tex] → [tex]C_{3}[/tex] . . . → [tex]C_{n}[/tex]. Now, if all roads are going towards [tex]c_{n}+1[/tex], then add [tex]c_{n}+1[/tex] at the end of this path. Otherwise, let [tex]C_{i}[/tex] be the first city in this path such that there is a road from [tex]C_{i}[/tex]-1 to [tex]c_{n}+1[/tex] and from [tex]c_{n}+1[/tex] to [tex]C_{i}[/tex].

What is mathematical induction method?Mathematical Induction is a technique of proving a statement, theorem or formula which is thought to be true, for each and every natural number n. By generalizing this in form of a principle which we would use to prove any mathematical statement is 'Principle of Mathematical Induction'.
The question says that between any two cities X and Y, either there’s an
one-way road from X to Y or from Y to X, but not both. Then show that
there is a path from some city A which visits all the cities exactly once.
This problem is very similar to the Football league problem #7 in Homework 1. This problem can be modeled as a directed graph in which cities
are represented as vertices and there’s an edge from vertices X to Y if
there’s a road from cities X to Y. And then, our goal is to find a path
in this graph which visits every vertex in the graph.
The rest of the solution is very similar to the argument in Problem 7 of
homework 1. We use induction of number of cities, say n.
As a base case, if n = 2, there are only two cities X and Y and the path
is simply the edge between X and Y.
For induction hypothesis, assume that the statement is true for any set
of n cities. That is’ for any set of n cities, we can find a path which visits
all the cities exactly once.
Let’s prove the statement for n + 1 cities. Leave out n + 1 th city (say,
[tex]c_{n}+1[/tex]) and for the remaining n cities, by induction hypothesis, we can find a path which visits all these n cities exactly once. Let us label the cities such that this path is [tex]C_{1}[/tex] → [tex]C_{2}[/tex] → [tex]C_{3}[/tex] . . . → [tex]C_{n}[/tex]. Now, if all roads are going towards [tex]c_{n}+1[/tex], then add [tex]c_{n}+1[/tex] at the end of this path. Otherwise, let [tex]C_{i}[/tex] be the first city in this path such that there is a road from [tex]C_{i}[/tex]-1 to [tex]c_{n}+1[/tex] and from [tex]c_{n}+1[/tex] to [tex]C_{i}[/tex].

O ((5, 3), (7,5), (9, 6), (12, 10), (16, 12)}
Answer: Option (2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The inverse of a function swaps the domain and range.
The inverse of the function h(x) is
B. h'(x) = ((-5, 3), (-7, 5), (-9, 6), (-12, 10), (-16, 12)}
Option B is the correct answer.
We have,
The function h(x) is given as:
h(x) = {(3, -5), (5, -7), (6, -9), (10, -12), (12, -16)}
To find h¹(x) (the inverse of h(x)), we need to swap the x and y values in each ordered pair.
The inverse function will have the y-values of h(x) as the x-values, and the x-values of h(x) as the y-values.
So,
h¹(x) would be:
h¹(x) = {(-5, 3), (-7, 5), (-9, 6), (-12, 10), (-16, 12)}
Thus,
The inverse of the function h(x) is

The coordinates of QRTW after dilation by factor 10 are (-20,30),(-30,10),(20,-10),(-20,40).
Given that coordinates of QRTW before dilation are (-2,3),(-3,1),(2,-1),(-2,4) and figure QRTW is dilated by factor 10.
We know that if a figure is dilated its area, increases. The new coordinates can be calculated as x*factor from which it is dilated.
Coordinates are the points on the graph surface.
In our figure Q(-2,3), R(-3,1), S(2,-1), T (-2,4).
We have to just multiply each value with 10 to get the new coordinates of QRTW after dilation.
Q after dilation=(-2*10,3*10)=(-20,30)
R after dilation=(-3*10,1*10)=(-30,10)
S after dilation=(2*10,-1*10)=(20,-10)
T after dilation=(-2*10,4*10)=(-20,40)

In the question side of the mat is m.
Perimeter of the mat = m + m + m + m
= 4m.
Therefore, the perimeter of the mat is 4m.
What is the area of the square?
The total number of unit squares in a square's shape is used to calculate its area.
Area = (Side x Side)
Since, side of the mat is m.
Area of the mat = m x m
= [tex]m^{2}[/tex]
Therefore, the area of the mat is [tex]m^{2}[/tex].

X + 2/3 = 8/9 x=? /////////////////////////////////////////
The value of x is 2/9
Given equation x +2/3 = 8/9
We need to find the value of x
Simplifying the equation is
x+2/3 = 8/9
x = 8/9 -2/3
Taking L.C.M of the denominators 3 and 9
The L.C.M is 9
So we will multiply the numerator and denominator with 1 in 8/9
And we will multiply the numerator and denominator with 3 in 2/3
Hence the new equation formed = 8/9-6/9
Solving this equation we get
8-6 / 9
= 2 / 9
Hence the value of x is 2/9

The label on a bag of chocolates states that there are 0.384 pounds of chocolates.
The actual weight of the chocolates is 0.3798 pounds.
How much lighter are the chocolates than stated on the label?
Answer:
Answer:The chocolate are 0.0042 lighter than the stated on the label
You measure 46 textbooks' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 77 ounces. Assume the population is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 12.2 ounces. Based on this, construct a 99% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight. Give your answers correct to at least two decimal places. Lower Limit = Upper Limit =
Using the z-distribution, the 99% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight is (72.37, 81.63).
What is a z-distribution confidence interval?The confidence interval is:
[tex]\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which:
[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean.z is the critical value.n is the sample size.[tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation for the population.In this problem, we have a 99% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.99[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.99}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so the critical value is z = 2.575.
The other parameters are given as follows:
[tex]\overline{x} = 77, \sigma = 12.2, n = 46[/tex]
Hence the lower and upper bound of the interval are given, respectively, by:
[tex]\overline{x} - z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = 77 - 2.575\frac{12.2}{\sqrt{46}} = 72.37[/tex][tex]\overline{x} + z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = 77 + 2.575\frac{12.2}{\sqrt{46}} = 81.63[/tex]More can be learned about the z-distribution at https://brainly.com/question/25890103
