12.4 , 13.7 , 12.0 , 14.7 , 15.2 , 11.9 , 15.6
13.8 , 14.2 , 12.5 , 15.0 , 16.0 , 13.1 , 11.7
If the class creates a histogram of the data in the table, how many students are in the range 12 cm to 13.9 cm?
1) 3
2) 4
3) 7
4) 8
The correct answer is:
4) 8
Explanation:
We want to find the frequency of this range. To do this, we count how many values fall between 12.0 and 13.9. There are 8 total values that do this, so the answer is 8.
In the given data set, there are 7 values in the given range.
Here we just need to find the number of values between 12cm and 13.9 cm, from the given table, these are:
12.1 cm, 13.5 cm, 12.4 cm, 13.7 cm, 13.8 cm, 12.5 cm, 13.1 cm
So there are 7 values in the given range, which means that 7 students are in the range of 12cm and 13.9cm.
Then the correct option is the third one.

write an explicit formula for the Nth term aN.
Answer:
an=−6n+2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you need to identify the first term and the common difference of the sequence. The first term is the value of the first element, which is -4. The common difference is the amount that is added or subtracted to each term to get the next one, which is -6 in this case. You can find it by subtracting any two consecutive terms, such as -10 - (-4) = -6 or -16 - (-10) = -6.
Next, you need to use the standard explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence, which is:
an=a1+d(n−1)
where an is the Nth term, a1 is the first term, d is the common difference, and n is any term number.
Finally, you need to substitute the values of a1 and d that you found in the first step into the formula. This gives:
an=−4+(−6)(n−1)
This is the explicit formula for the Nth term aN of the given arithmetic sequence. You can simplify it further by expanding and combining like terms:
an=−4−6n+6
an=−6n+2
One possible answer is:
5((7x3)-6).
Explanation:
75 ends in 5, so it is divisible by 5. 75/5 = 15. If we can arrange 7, 6 and 3 some way to make 15, we can use this multiplied by 5.
7x3=21, and 21-6=15; this gives us what we need!
5(21-6) = 75; 21 = 3x7, so 5((3x7)-6).
