The 5-number summary is maximum= 175, minimum=126, median=150, Q₁=138 and Q₃=160.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data set is

126, 128, 131, 135, 136, 140, 143, 145, 147, 148, 152, 154, 155, 156, 159, 162, 164, 166, 169, 175

The minimum value of the data is 126 and the maximum value of the data is 175.

Divide the data in two equal parts.

(126, 128, 131, 135, 136, 140, 143, 145, 147, 148), (152, 154, 155, 156, 159, 162, 164, 166, 169, 175)

The median of the data is

$Median=\frac{148+152}{2}=150$

Now divide each parenthesis in two equal parts.

(126, 128, 131, 135, 136), (140, 143, 145, 147, 148), (152, 154, 155, 156, 159), (162, 164, 166, 169, 175)

$Q_1=\frac{136+140}{2}=138$

$Q_3=\frac{159+162}{2}=160.5$

Therefore the 5-number summary is maximum= 175, minimum=126, median=150, Q₁=138 and Q₃=160.5.

Answer from: Quest

starting with:

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7

5 + x - 12 - x = 2x - 7 - x (subtract x from both sides)

5 - 12 = x - 7 (combine and cancel x's from both sides)

5 - 12 + 7 = x - 7 + 7 (add 7 to both sides)

0 = x (add numbers together on both sides)

so in order for the equation to be true, x must be 0.

trying x = -0.5

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)

5 + -0.5 - 12 = 2(-0.5) - 7 (plug in value of x)

5 + -0.5 - 12 = -1 - 7 (did multiplication)

-7.5 = -8 (did addition on both sides)

since -7.5 is obviously not equal to -8, the value of -0.5 for x is wrong.

trying x = 0

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)

5 + 0 - 12 = 2(0) - 7 (plug in value of x)

5 + 0 - 12 = 0 - 7 (did multiplication)

-7 = -7 (did addition on both sides)

since -7 equals -7, that demonstrates that the value of 0 for x is correct.

trying x = 1

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)

5 + 1 - 12 = 2(1) - 7 (plug in value of x)

5 + 1 - 12 = 2 - 7 (did multiplication)

-6 = -5 (did addition on both sides)

since -6 is obviously not equal to -5, the value of 1 for x is wrong.
