Are there any outliers, or at least one value that is much higher or lower than the others, in the data set shown?
Test Scores
45, 44, 49, 15, 43, 44, 48, 49
Yes, there is an outlier in the data set. The value 15 is much lower than the other scores.
To determine if there are any outliers in the data set, we need to calculate the range and examine the values individually. The range of a data set is found by subtracting the smallest value from the largest value.
In this case, the smallest value is 15, and the largest value is 49. Therefore, the range is 49 - 15 = 34.
Now, let's examine the individual values:
- 45
- 44
- 49
- 15
- 43
- 44
- 48
- 49
None of the values in the data set are significantly higher or lower compared to the others. Therefore, there are no outliers in this data set.
To identify outliers in a dataset, you can calculate the interquartile range (IQR) and use it to determine the lower and upper bounds for potential outliers. Here's how you can do it for the given dataset:
1. Start by sorting the dataset in ascending order:
15, 43, 44, 44, 45, 48, 49, 49
2. Calculate the first quartile (Q1) and the third quartile (Q3) values.
- To find Q1, calculate the median of the lower half of the data: 15, 43, 44, 44. Median = (43 + 44) / 2 = 43.5.
- To find Q3, calculate the median of the upper half of the data: 45, 48, 49, 49. Median = (48 + 49) / 2 = 48.5.
3. Calculate the IQR by subtracting Q1 from Q3: IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 48.5 - 43.5 = 5.
4. Calculate the lower bound (LB) and upper bound (UB) for outliers:
- LB = Q1 - (1.5 * IQR) = 43.5 - (1.5 * 5) = 36.
- UB = Q3 + (1.5 * IQR) = 48.5 + (1.5 * 5) = 56.
5. Compare each value in the dataset to the lower and upper bounds. Any value below the lower bound or above the upper bound is considered an outlier.
In this case, the given dataset does not contain any values that are below the lower bound (36) or above the upper bound (56). Therefore, based on the calculation, there are no outliers in the dataset.
Are all expressions shown below equivalent?
y + y + y + y +8
2(2y+4)
4y+8
8y + 16 2
No, not all of the expressions are equivalent.
The expressions "y + y + y + y + 8" and "4y + 8" are equivalent because they both simplify to "4y + 8".
The expression "2(2y + 4)" is also equivalent to "4y + 8" because when you distribute the 2, you get "4y + 8".
However, the expression "8y + 16 2" is not equivalent to the others. It seems like there might be a typo or error in the expression.

Since the values in the data set are not all numerical, it may not be appropriate to use traditional measures of variability like range or standard deviation. Instead, Anthony could choose to use the interquartile range (IQR) as a measure of variability for this data set.
IQR is a measure of the spread of the middle 50% of the data and is better suited for datasets with non-numerical or categorical values. It can be calculated by finding the difference between the third quartile (Q3) and the first quartile (Q1).
The top of a cat tree is in the shape of a cube. The cube is 22 inches on each side. The entire outside surface needs to be covered in carpet.
How many square inches of carpet will be needed? (Assume there is no hole in the cube.)
To find the area of the entire outside surface of the cube, we need to calculate the area of each face and then add them up.
Each face of the cube is a square, and the formula to calculate the area of a square is side length squared (A = s^2).
Since each side of the cube is 22 inches, the area of each face is 22^2 = 484 square inches.
Since a cube has 6 faces, we need to multiply the area of one face by 6 to get the total area of the outside surface.
Total area of outside surface = 484 square inches x 6 = 2904 square inches.
Therefore, 2904 square inches of carpet will be needed to cover the entire outside surface of the cat tree.

Which of the following situations are equal to 40%? Select all that apply.
A) 5 out of 20
B) 6 out of 15
C) 10 out of 25
D) 45 out of 90
E) 32 out of 80
To determine which situations are equal to 40%, we need to compare the given ratios to 40%.
Let's calculate the ratios:
A) 5 out of 20 = 5/20 = 0.25 (25%)
B) 6 out of 15 = 6/15 = 0.4 (40%)
C) 10 out of 25 = 10/25 = 0.4 (40%)
D) 45 out of 90 = 45/90 = 0.5 (50%)
E) 32 out of 80 = 32/80 = 0.4 (40%)
Based on the calculations, the situations that are equal to 40% are:
- B) 6 out of 15
- C) 10 out of 25
- E) 32 out of 80
Therefore, options B, C, and E are the correct answers.
Gabriela can swim 100 meters in 20 minutes. What is Gabriela's unit rate?
To calculate Gabriela's unit rate, we need to determine how many meters she can swim in one minute.
Given that Gabriela can swim 100 meters in 20 minutes, we divide 100 by 20 to determine the number of meters she can swim in one minute.
100 / 20 = 5
Therefore, Gabriela's unit rate is 5 meters per minute.
Simplify each of the expressions below. Which of the expressions have a value between 200 and 500? Select all that apply.
A) (5-4)2 + (7+4)2
B) (3+2)+(20 ÷ 4)3
C) 12 x (5-2)3
D) 405+ (10+3)2
Let's simplify each expression and determine which ones have a value between 200 and 500.
A) (5-4)2 + (7+4)2
= (1)2 + (11)2
= 1 + 121
= 122
B) (3+2)+(20 ÷ 4)3
= (5) + (5)3
= 5 + 125
= 130
C) 12 x (5-2)3
= 12 x (3)3
= 12 x 27
= 324
D) 405 + (10+3)2
= 405 + (13)2
= 405 + 169
= 574
After simplifying each expression, we can see that only expression D) has a value between 200 and 500 (specifically, 574).
Therefore, the correct answer is D) 405 + (10+3)2.

Student Score (out of 100)
To determine the total number of observations represented in the histogram, we need to sum up the number of students in each score range or bin.
From the histogram, we can see that there are 20 students in the "50-59" range, 10 students in the "60-69" range, 8 students in the "70-79" range, 6 students in the "80-89" range, and 4 students in the "90-99" range.
Adding up these numbers, we get:
20 + 10 + 8 + 6 + 4 = 48
Therefore, there are a total of 48 observations represented in the histogram.
Jorge lives in a state where sales tax is 5%. This means you can find the total cost of an item, including tax, by using the expression c + 0.05c, where c is the pre-tax price of the item.
Use the expression to find the total cost of an item that has a pre-tax price of $45.00.
To find the total cost of an item with a pre-tax price of $45.00, we can use the expression c + 0.05c, where c is the pre-tax price.
Substituting c = $45.00 into the expression, we get:
$45.00 + 0.05($45.00)
Calculating the expression:
$45.00 + (0.05 * $45.00)
$45.00 + $2.25
$47.25
Therefore, the total cost of the item, including tax, is $47.25.

A) 5x+15x² + 12x + 8
B) 16y - 4+6y²
C) 14x²+7x
D) 12y³ +8 +6y
To determine which expressions have exactly 3 terms, we count the number of terms separated by addition or subtraction symbols.
Let's analyze each expression:
A) 5x + 15x² + 12x + 8
This expression has 4 terms: 5x, 15x², 12x, 8
B) 16y - 4 + 6y²
This expression has 3 terms: 16y, -4, 6y²
C) 14x² + 7x
This expression has 2 terms: 14x², 7x
D) 12y³ + 8 + 6y
This expression has 3 terms: 12y³, 8, 6y
Based on the analysis, the expressions that have exactly 3 terms are:
- B) 16y - 4 + 6y²
- D) 12y³ + 8 + 6y
Therefore, options B and D are the correct answers.
Kathy thinks that the data below was collected by asking a teacher to report only the highest scores her students received on the writing rubric. Is this a possible means of collecting the data?
Scores on 6-Trait Writing Rubric
X
X-

XXT6
No, it is not possible for the data to have been collected by asking a teacher to report only the highest scores on the writing rubric.
The data provided does not consist of scores that are commonly used in a writing rubric. "X" and "X-" are not typically used as scores on a rubric, and "1" and "3" do not provide enough context to determine what they represent on the rubric. Additionally, "XXT6" does not appear to be a valid score on a writing rubric either.
For accurate data collection, a writing rubric typically includes specific criteria and scoring levels or descriptors. The scores collected should reflect the performance of students across these criteria, rather than just the highest scores.

s ≤ 20
This inequality represents that the speed, s, should be less than or equal to 20 miles per hour.
Carlito packed a right rectangular prism with 27 unit cubes. If Missy multiplied the edge lengths of the same prism to find the volume, what is the answer in cubic centimeters?
To find the volume of a right rectangular prism, we multiply the lengths of all three edges. Since the question asks for the volume in cubic centimeters, we first need to clarify the units of the edge lengths.
If the unit cubes used to pack the prism each have an edge length of 1 unit, then the main prism should have dimensions of 3 units long, 3 units wide, and 3 units tall.
To convert the volume to cubic centimeters, we use the fact that 1 cubic centimeter is equal to 1 cubic unit. Therefore, the volume of the prism is 3 * 3 * 3 = 27 cubic units, which is equal to 27 cubic centimeters.
Based on the dimensions (base and height) given, which of the triangles below has an area of 20 square feet? Select all that apply.
A) Base: 8 feet, Height: 5 feet
B) Base: 10 feet, Height: 4 feet
C) Base: 2 feet, Height: 20 feet
D) Base: 5 feet, Height: 4 feet
E) Base: 10 feet, Height: 2 feet
To find the area of a triangle, we use the formula: Area = (Base * Height) / 2.
Let's calculate the area for each triangle:
A) Base: 8 feet, Height: 5 feet
Area = (8 * 5) / 2 = 40 / 2 = 20 square feet
B) Base: 10 feet, Height: 4 feet
Area = (10 * 4) / 2 = 40 / 2 = 20 square feet
C) Base: 2 feet, Height: 20 feet
Area = (2 * 20) / 2 = 40 / 2 = 20 square feet
D) Base: 5 feet, Height: 4 feet
Area = (5 * 4) / 2 = 20 / 2 = 10 square feet
E) Base: 10 feet, Height: 2 feet
Area = (10 * 2) / 2 = 20 / 2 = 10 square feet
Based on the calculations, the triangles that have an area of 20 square feet are:
- A) Base: 8 feet, Height: 5 feet
- B) Base: 10 feet, Height: 4 feet
- C) Base: 2 feet, Height: 20 feet
Therefore, options A, B, and C are the correct answers.
