The following histogram represents the distribution of acceptance rates (percent accepted) among 25 business schools in 2004. In each class interval, the left endpoint is included but not the right, so the class intervals are 10 ≤ rate < 15, 15 ≤ rate < 20, etc. What is the median acceptance rate?

a. just above 30%
b. just below 30%
c. 20%
d. 40%

Explanation:

Please, see attached the histogram that represents the distribution of acceptance rates (percent accepted) among 25 business schools in 2004.

The median is the value that separates the lower 50% from the upper 50% of the data.

Since there are 25 business schools, the middle value is the number 13.

The height of each bar is the frequency or number of business school for that acceptace rate:

Then, the 13th value is on the next bar, the fifth bar.

The fifth bar has acceptance rates 25  ≤ rate < 30.

That means that the median acceptance rate is greater than or equal to 25 and less than 30.

Thus, the choice is the option b. just below 30%.

b. 18

step-by-step explanation:

so the equation for this is:

ab^2=ac⋅ad

ab being the top length of 6 and ac being the length of 2 and ad being the length of x. let's plug into the equation:

6^2 = 2x

now lets just solve for x:

36 = 2x

18 = x

c = 0.429t

step-by-step explanation:

the constant rate at which carlos harvests cassava is 35 minutes per 15 cassavas 15/35 = 0.429 cassava per minute

therefore, an equation that models the number of cassava (c) that harvest carlos in a time (t) is the following:

where t is the time in minutes.

this means that when 35 minutes have elapsed 15 cassava have been harvested, at 70 minutes 30 cassava have been harvested and so on.
