In a box, 1/4 of the beads are red, 3/5 of the remainder are yellow, and the rest are blue. if there are 48 blue beads, how many beads are there altogether?

160 total beads

Step-by-step explanation:

so if 1/4 of the beads are red, then 3/4 of them are notso 3/4 is the remainder of beadsand 3/5 of the remainder are yellowso 3/5 of 3/4 =

3/5 * 3/4 = 9/20...so 9/20 are yellowand the rest (48) are blue.

1/4 + 9/20 = 5/20 + 9/20 = 14/20 reduces to 7/10...so 7/10 of the beads are red and yellow

so if 7/10 of the beads are red and yellow, then 3/10 are blue

3/10 of what number is 48

3/10x = 48

x = 48 * 10/3

x = 480/3

x = 160

let me check it..

1/4 are red160 total beadsso red beads = (1/4 * 160) = 160/4 = 40

3/5 of the remainder is yellowso 3/5 of (160 - 40) = 3/5(120) = 72 yellow

and then u have 48 blue...

40 + 72 + 48 = 160

so there are 160 total beads40 red, 72 yellow, and 48 blue <===

step-by-step explanation:

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.
