X: y= 5: 3 and x+y =56

workout the value of x-y

x - y = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 5 + 3 = 8 parts

Divide 56 by 8 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

56 ÷ 8 = 7 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus

x = 5 × 7 = 35

y = 3 × 7 = 21

Thus x - y = 35 - 21 = 14

x -

median = 1.25

range = 12-14.5

interquartile = q12-q14.5

y -

median = 1

range = 15-17

interquartile = q15-q17

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to solve percent error follow these steps.

1. subtract the accepted value from the experimental value.

2. take the absolute value of step 1.

3. divide that answer by the accepted value.

4. multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

if you want to solve percent of change just do this.

1. work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

2. divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. if your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

hope this : )
