Answer:

a) median= 25 mins

   interquartile range= 19mins

b) the braineys , because the braineys took 32mins on average and the cleverites took 25 mins on average which is 7 minutes more.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) find the median by going across the middle of the cumulative frequency (in this case, 40) until it hits the line (the cleverites) and move down to see the time in minutes. 25 mins.

to find the interquartile range, first find the lower quartile. So find the half of the median, or the quarter of the cumulative frequency ( 20) and go across until it hits the line and look down from that point to find the time ( 15 mins). Then, find the upper quartile by finding 3/4 or half+quarter of the cumulative frequency (60) and do the same with the line (34mins)

the interquartile is upper quartile - lower quartile  

34-15= 19 mins

interquartile= 19 mins.

b) the average is the same as the median, so find the median for the cleverites and the median for the braineys, which is 25 mins and 32 mins, therefore the braineys took longer, thus was the slowest at completing the test on average.

 A store that buys and sells used video games buys a game at a cost of ​$415 and sells it at a selling price of ​$477.25. Find t
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

The markup value = $62.25

The mark up percentage = 15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Cost price of the video game = $415

Selling price of the video game = $477.25

We need to find the mark up value and the markup percentage

Step 2 :

The markup value can be computed by taking the difference of the selling and the cost price.

Hence the markup = $477.25-$415 = $62.25

The markup percentage is computed on the cost price

so the mark up percentage =( 62.25 ÷ 415) × 100 = 15%

Step 3 :

Answer :

The markup value = $62.25

The mark up percentage = 15%

He has 9 apples so we add .50 cents 9 times.
If we count this money-wise we would get 4.50, so if he paid with a $5 bill he would recieve 50 cents

What is the sum of the infinite geometric series?<br><br> mc010-1.jpg
ra1l [238]
You haven't provided the series, therefore, I can only help with the concept.

<u><em>For an infinite geometric series, we have two possibilities for the common ratio (r):</em></u>
for r > 1, the terms in the series will keep increasing infinitely and the only possible logic summation of the series would be infinity
for r < 1, the terms will decrease, therefore, we can formulate a rule to get the sum of the infinite series

<u><em>In an infinite series with r < 1, the summation can be found using the following rule:</em></u>
sum = \frac{a_{1} }{1-r}
where:
a₁ is the first term in the series
r is the common ratio

<u>Example:</u>
For the series:
2 , 1, 0.5 , 0.25 , ....
we have:
a₁ = 2
r = 0.5
Therefre:
sum = \frac{2}{1-0.5} = 4

Hope this helps :)
