which statement is the most appropriate comparison of the spreads?
o
a. the standard deviation for town a, 20°, is greater than the
standard deviation for town b, 10°.
o
b. the interquartile range (iqr) for town a, 30°, is less than the iqr
for town b, 43º.
c. the interquartile range (iqr) for town a, 20°, is greater than the
iqr for town b, 10°
o
d. the interquartile ranges (iqrs) for towns a and b are both 30°.

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.  

the answer would be c:   ax + b = ax + c

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is 1/4
