Concept explainers
To calculate: The centers of the two populations using median.
Answer to Problem 7IP
The Summer Lake has a median of 60 visitors.
The Canyon overlook has a median of 80 visitors.
Median of Canyon overlook is greater than Summer Lake.
Canyon overlook has more daily visitors.
Explanation of Solution
Given information: The double box plot shows the number of daily visitors in two parks.
Calculation:
The distribution of visitors in Summer Lake is symmetric, while that of visitors in Canyon overlook is not symmetric. Use the median to compare the centers and the inter quartile range to compare the variations.
In box plot, a box is drawn from the first quartile to the third quartile and median is where the vertical line goes through.
For Summer Lake:
The Summer Lake has a median of 60 visitors.
For Canyon overlook:
The Canyon overlook has a median of 80 visitors.
Summer Lake | Canyon overlook | |
median | 60 | 80 |
Median of Canyon overlook is greater than Summer Lake.
Canyon overlook has more daily visitors.

- Rylee's car is stuck in the mud. Roman and Shanice come along in a truck to help pull her out. They attach one end of a tow strap to the front of the car and the other end to the truck's trailer hitch, and the truck starts to pull. Meanwhile, Roman and Shanice get behind the car and push. The truck generates a horizontal force of 377 lb on the car. Roman and Shanice are pushing at a slight upward angle and generate a force of 119 lb on the car. These forces can be represented by vectors, as shown in the figure below. The angle between these vectors is 20.2°. Find the resultant force (the vector sum), then give its magnitude and its direction angle from the positive x-axis. 119 lb 20.2° 377 lbarrow_forwardAn airplane flies due west at an airspeed of 428 mph.
