What is the vertical intercept (or y-intercept) of the line below?
(0,6)
(-3,0)

the results from a pre-test for students for the year 2000 and the year 2010 are illustrated in the box plot. what do these results tell us about how students performed on the 29 question pre-test for the two years?

if we compare only the lowest and highest scores between the two years, we might conclude that the students in 2010 did better than the students in 2010. this conclusion seems to follow since the lowest score of 8 in 2010 is greater in value than the lowest score of 6 in 2000. also, the highest score of 28 in 2010 is greater in value than the highest score of 27 in 2000.

but the box portion of the illustration gives us more detailed information. the middle bar in each box shows us that the median score of 20 in 2000 is greater in value than the median score of 17 in 2010. further, we note that the box and whiskers divide the illustration into four pieces. each of these four pieces represents the same portion of students. so, the upper half of the students in 2000 scored in the same score range as the upper one-fourth of the students in 2010, see the illustration at a score of 20.

by considering the upper one-fourth, upper half, and upper three-fourths instead of just the lowest and highest scores, we would conclude that the students as a whole did much better in 2000 than in 2010. we would conclude that as a whole the students in 2010 are less prepared than the students in 2000.

in this section, we discuss box-and-whisker plots and the five key values used in constructing a box-and-whisker plot. the key values are called a five-number summary, which consists of the minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum.

answer: you will have more water.

1. which statement below is true for hyperbolic geometry?

answer: d  

the sum of the measures of the angles in a triangle is always less than 180 degrees.

2. identify the statement that is true in spherical geometry.

answer: d  

the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is greater than 180.

3. what can be said about the vertices of an equilateral triangle drawn in poincaré’s system?

answer: b  

the vertices are equidistant from the center of the circle.

4. satellites sputnik, yeltsin, and plekov often temporarily line up in order in a great circle. the circumference of the earth is 24,900 miles, and the satellites orbit at about 150 miles above the surface. if, while in a great circle, sputnik is 9,000 miles from yeltsin, and yeltsin is 10,500 miles from plekov, how far apart are sputnik and plekov?

answer: b  

6,342 miles

5. identify the statement that is true in spherical geometry.

answer: d  

two distinct lines intersect in two points.
