1. A set of weights includes a 5 lb barbell and 8 pairs of weight plates. Each pair, p, weights 10 lbs. If x pair of weight plates are added to the barbell, the total weight of the
barbell in pounds can be represented by the function
f(x) = 10x + 5. What is a reasonable range of the function in this situation?

5 <= y <= 85

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lowest weight possible is 5lbs (just the barbell and no weights) the lowest point of the range is 5lbs (the y intercept when x = 0)

The highest weight possible is 85lbs since, there is only 8 pairs of weight plates (8 is the input value) and the pairs each weigh 10lbs (the slope of the graph) + 5lbs from the barbell (y-intercept).

Using the function given, if you input 8 as the x value, you get

85 = 10(8) + 5

So the highest value of the range is 85lbs, therefore the range is 5 <= y <= 85.  

8(-10x+3.5y-7)

8×-10x + 8×3.5y + 8×-7

-80x + 28y - 56

therefore

-80x+28y-56 is the correct answer

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.
