Four friends ordered a pizza cut into eight slices. the whole pizza was eaten, with each friend eating a different number of slices. if no slice was divided, and no friend ate more than the other three put together, how many slices did each friend eat?

friend    slices he/she ate

A            0              

B            1

C            3

D            4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's try to solve this problem by trial and error. First guess:

friend    slices he/she ate

A            1                

B            2

C            3

D            4

is incorrect because that gives a total of 10 slices. Then, one friend ate 0 slices. Therefore the options are: {0,1,2,3}, {0,2,3,4}, {0,1,3,4}. Nobody ate more than 4 slices because the criteria " no friend ate more than the other three put together" will not be satisfied. Only the last option satisfy the 8 slice criteria.

see below

step-by-step explanation:

7.   there are 10 data points in the set.   the middle point is between 5 and 6.   the middle point in the top half is 8   and the middle point in the bottom half is 3. to find the iqr , take point 8 and subtract point 3

mid term   point 8 = 100   point 3 = 88

iqr = 100-88 = 12

final   point 8 = 93   point 3 = 78

iqr = 93 - 78 = 15

the final has the greatest iqr

6.   b - there is a high data value that causes the data set to be asymmetrical for the males: the data for males are high and asymmetrical .   there is an outlier for the males that skews the data

5.   the   iqr is a better measure of spread for the movies and basketball games.   since the basketball game has an outlier, we do not want to use standard deviation for measurement.  

3.   the exam median is much higher than the class median.   the median line is farther to the right on the exams

2.   there is no way to tell what the means are from the box and whisker plots.
