**Middle School Science Olympiad: Catapult Efficiency**A team of Middle School students is preparing for a Science Olympiad competition. They engineered a catapult and tested its efficiency by measuring how far it could fling marshmallows. The results are depicted in the box plot below.**Box Plot Details: Marshmallow Distance (inches)**- **Range:** The minimum value (smallest distance flung) is approximately 10 inches, and the maximum value (largest distance flung) is around 75 inches.- **Interquartile Range (IQR):** The box spans from roughly 25 to 60 inches.- **Median (Q2):** The median distance is around 45 inches, indicated by the line inside the box.**Question:**What fraction of marshmallows landed less than 30 inches away?The box plot provides visual insights into the distribution of distances. To interpret the fraction:- The left edge of the box represents the 25th percentile (Q1), which is around 25 inches.- The median (middle line of the box) is at 45 inches.Considering the distribution, approximately 25% of the marshmallows landed less than 30 inches away, as the first quartile (Q1) at around 25 inches indicates that 25% of the data falls below this point.**Summary:**In this experiment, a quarter (1/4) of the marshmallows landed less than 30 inches away.

Two pirates are standing by a palm tree and are looking at the exposed treasure located at a rock across from canyon. They have a map which lists the distances between certain items. Set up a proportion and solve for side EF. You can call EF "x." Remember to match the sides that have a larger number with the larger number on the other triangle. Or use the smaller number and match it with the other smaller number on the other triangle. You don't need to use all the numbers. For the similarity theorem only use the information from before you solved the proportion. B 80ft. at Spk 40 ft. E 120 ft. 50 ft. 100 ft. Advanced La...

Jason has 75 feet of wallpaper border. He wants to put up a wallpaper border around his rectangular bedroom that measures 12 feet by 13 feet. He multiples 12x14=168 to get an exact answer of how much border he needs. He concludes that he does not have enough border for the whole job. 1. Tell how you can critique Jason's reasoning. 2. Critique Jason's Reasoning. 3. Jason uses an overestimate to decide how many rolls of wallpaper he needs for another room. Explain why his Reasoning to use an overestimate does or does not make sense. Todd has a new spool of wire, he needs 48 pieces of wire each 22 ft long. He estimates that he needs 5 x 20 equals 1000 feet and he concludes that 1 spool with a 1000 feet will be enough. 4. make sense and persevere: Does it make sense for Todd to find an overestimate or an underestimate to decide if one spool is enough? why? 5.
