A patient's temperature was recorded in degrees Fahrenheit every hour for 8 hr. The temperatures in Fahrenheit were 99.0°, 99.2°, 98.7°, 99.3°, 99.7°, 98.6°, 100.0° and 99.0°. Which of the following is the median temperature?

The median temperature can be found by organizing the temperature values from the smallest to the largest value as follows:

98.6, 98.7, 99.0, 99.0,99.2, 99.3, 99.7, 100.0

(for an even set of numbers, Median = frac{(frac{n}{2})th observation + (frac{n}{2} + 1) th observation}{2})

From the data set above, there are 8temperature values. The median is the temperature value in the middle position, which falls between the(frac{n}{2} th)and((frac{n}{2} + 1) th) position. Here N=8and median is found as:

(frac{(frac{n}{2})th + (frac{n}{2} + 1) th}{2} = )(frac{(frac{8}{2})th + (frac{8}{2} + 1) th }{2} = 4.5th position)

The element in the 4.5th position is the average of the 4th and 5th element.

(frac{99.0 + 99.2}{2} = 99.1)

Thus 99.1 is the median temperature.

Let xxx be the amount the friend paid for their car. The problem states:

48,000=2x−2,000

Step 1: Solve for x

Add 2,000 to both sides:

48,000+2,000=2x

Divide by 2:

x=25,000

To find the net force, we choose east direction as positive and west as negative. From this, we can present the tag of war in the diagram below.

So, the force on the dog is -190 N and that of the girl is 165 N.

The net force is the sum of the two forces

The resulting force is negative, meaning it is in the west direction. Thus, the net force is 25 N to the west.

We extrapolate the values of a line between 10 and 15 on y-axis to meet the curve and drop another line from the intersection of the curve to meet the x-axis and read off the age of the car.

Now, let’s extrapolate in the following diagram

The intersection of the line and the x-axis is between 4 and 5 years. This means that the car is about 4.5 years old. From the options given, the age of the car is more than 3 years old.

We need to perform a series of numerical dimensional analysis to find the number of bags sugar needed for 300 people.

We are told that 50 people need 4 cups of sugar. This can be interpretated as:

Or

Also, one bag of sugar contains 6 cups. This can also be presented as:

Or

We use the second option relating number of people and cups, and second option relating cups of sugar and bag of sugar to find for number of bags of sugar needed for 300 people.

Therefore, 300 people will need 4 bags of sugar.

to solve for x, we order like terms together and proceed as follows:

4x-3-5x=24

Add 3 to both sides of the equation

4x-3+3-5x=24+3

4x+3-3-5x=27

4x-5x=27

-x=27

Divide both sides by -1

-x/-1=27/-1

x= -27

Thus, the unknown value of x is -27

In this problem, to find one side of the square garden, we use the calculator to find the square root of 13. Thus

Thus, the approximate side of a square garden is about 3.6 ft

We convert the given weight in pounds to ounces and find total weight. 1 pound=16 ounces, which we interpret as

Or

Use the second option to convert pounds to ounces

Now, we can ounces to ounces as: 48 oz + 5 oz= 53 oz

Therefore, 3 pounds, 5 ounces is equal to 53 oz

The whole pie chart represents 100%, which we use together with the given percentages to find the respective different sports. Note that 100% is equal to 500 surveyed students. The, the number of teenagers who prefer:

Soccer

Hockey

Football

Basketball

Other

From the evaluations above, 90 teenagers love soccer, 80 love hockey, 190 teenagers love football, 120 teenagers love basketball, and 20 teenagers love others.

A teaspoon can approximately hold 5 mL.

Although the capacity of a teaspoon could be more or less, choice D remains the most correct answer as the other choices have amounts too much for a small teaspoon.
