Part A: A dot plot would best respresent the data. With a dot plot, you can see all of the data clearly, unlike a box plot (which shows mean, max, min, etc.) or a histogram (which are only used to plot the frequency of score occurrences in a continuous data set that has been divided into classes, called bins).
Part B:
A. Draw a line
B. Make your titles
C. plot your data

Hope this helps! (P.S. this is my opinion, so it might be wrong)

Answer from: Quest

x= -3 and $x=\frac{-3+/-3i\sqrt{3} }{2}$

step-by-step explanation:

to find the roots of a cubic, use division or factoring to find the factors then set equal to 0. as this is a difference of cubes, it factors into

$(x^3-a^3)=$ $(x-a)(x^2+ax+a^2)$

where a is the cube root of $a^3$ .

here this is 27 and the cube root of 27 is 3. so we write using the form:

$(x-3)(x^2+(3)x+3^2)\\(x-3)(x^2+3x+9)$ .

set each factor to 0 and solve for x.

x-3=0

x=3

the quadratic expression does not factor and must be solved using the quadratic formula.

$x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

where a = 1, b=3, and c=9

$x=\frac{-3+/-\sqrt{3^2-4(1)(9)} }{2(1)} \\x=\frac{-3+/-\sqrt{9-36)} }{2} \\x=\frac{-3+/-\sqrt{-27)} }{2}\\x=\frac{-3+/-3i\sqrt{3} }{2}$

this cubic has two complex roots.

step-by-step explanation:

i found the life tables for the year 2012.

life table of males at age 30. probability of dying between ages x and x+1

total population:

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001030

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001061

males:

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001420

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001448

white population

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001005

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001037

white males

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001372

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001399

non hispanic white population

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001083

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001116

non hispanic white males

29–30 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001477

30–31 . . . . . . . . . . . . 0.001503

jacob, non hispanic white male. 30 years old.

probability that jacob lives to be 30 years old.

since the given probabilities are probabilities of dying, i think we simply subtract it from 1 to get the probability of living. we will use the probability of non hispanic white male.

probability of living to be 30 y.o.

29 - 30 : 1 - 0.001477 = 0.998523

30 - 31 : 1 - 0.001503 = 0.998497
