In a data set, Q1 is 24, and Q3 is 36. Regarding the same data, use the "IQR x 1.5" method to determine which of the following numbers would be considered an outlier. A.5
B.53
C.18
D. None of these would be outliers in this data set.

Saline iv fluid bags cost $64.20 for 24, 1000 ml bags from one supplier. a new supplier sells 500 ml bags for $2 each. the hospital uses about 10,000, 1000 ml bags each month. nurses report that about half of the bags are more than half full when they are discarded. if you are going to use only one supplier, which size bag provides the best deal, and how much will you save each month? compare the cost of the new supplier to the current one.

Asystem of linear equations with more equations than unknowns is sometimes called an overdetermined system. can such a system be consistent? illustrate your answer with a specific system of three equations in two unknowns. choose the correct answer below. a. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 6 b. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are fewer free variables than equations. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 12 c. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 8 d. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are no free variables. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 24

Varies inversely with x. if y=8.5 when x=-1 find x when y=-1
