Percentiles 2012-10-17
Kenneth pose la question :
Question from Kenneth:

Hello:

What is a common calculation used to determine percentiles?

For example, five employees have the following salaries:

Office worker 1 - $25,000

Office worker 2 - $27,000

Office worker 3 - $30,000

Office worker 4 - $32,000

Office worker 5 - $35,000

What is the percentile rank of office worker 3 who earns $30,000?

Here's what I know: Add the number of salaries. Total: 5

Add the smallest number of salaries less than $30,000. There are two.

Now, divide 2 by 5 and multiply by 100. 2/5 * 100 = 40

I think the office worker making $30,000 is in the 40th percentile. and I'm not sure what this ranking indicates.

I thank you for any helpful reply and or different calculation.

Romeo throws a pebble at Juliet's wondow 2011-08-22
Natalie pose la question :
There is a picture of Romeo trying to attract Juliet's attention without her nurse who is in a downstairs room, noticing. he stands 10m from the house and lobs a small pebble at her bedroom window (3.5m high). Romeo throws the pebble from a height of 1m with a speed of 11.5m/s at an angle of 60degrees to the horizontal. I have already found that it take 1.74seconds to reach the window and that it does in fact hit Juliet's window however i cannot work out the speed of the pebble when it hits the window! The answer is 9.12m/s but I cannot reach this answer. Hope you can help me :)

Why use percentiles? 2011-04-29
Kenneth pose la question :
I need some clarification regarding the word "percentile."

Here is an example and what I know: If an investor had twenty stocks in his portfolio and five of those stocks paid an annual dividend of $200.00 or more, the five stocks are in the 25 percentile.

Why is this word necessary? If my example and explanation is correct, why not simply indicate that 25% of his stocks paid an annual dividend of $200.00 or more?

Constantly accelerated motion 2007-10-29
Priyanka pose la question :
A, B and C are three points lying in that order on a straight line. A body is projected from B towards A with speed 3 m/s. The body experiences an acceleration of 1 m/s^2 towards C. If BC =20 m, find the time taken to reach C and the distance travelled by the body from the moment of projection until it reaches C.

The range of a projectile 2007-09-18
Claudette pose la question :
This is a maximum minimum problem that my textbook didn't even try to give an example of how to do it in the text itself. It just suddenly appears in the exercises. Problem: The range of a projectile is R = v^2 Sin 2x/g, where v is its initial velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity and is a constant, and x is the firing angle. Find the angle that maximizes the projectile's range. The author gives no information other than the formula. I thought to find the derivative of the formula setting that to zero, but once I had done that, I still had nothing that addressed the author's question. Any help would be sincerely appreciated.

Upper Quartiles 2007-01-26

I see you have a question about Q3 with even numbers but what about odd numbers? I have a problem with 19 numbers 36,45,49,53,55,56,59,61,62,65,67,70,75,81,82,86,89,94,99. Is there anyway the answer could be 81.5 because every time I do it I get 82 and my teacher tells me that is wrong. So in conclusion how do you do it?

Box and Whisker plots 2001-11-19
Rod pose la question :
In our Prealgebra course, we have been studying Box and Whisker plots. Recently, we learned how to decide whether a data point is an outlier or not. The book (Math Thematics, McDougall Littell) gave a process by which we find the interquartile range, then multiply by 1.5. We add this number to the upper quartile, and any points above this are considered to be outliers. We also subtract the number from the lower quartile for the same effect.

My question: where does this 1.5 originate? Is this the standard for locating outliers, or can we choose any number (that seems reasonable, like 2 or 1.8 for example) to multiply with the Interquartile range? If it is a standard, were outliers simply defined via this process, or did statisticians use empirical evidence to suggest that 1.5 is somehow optimal for deciding whether data points are valid or not?

The path of a cannonball 2001-01-15
A student pose la question :
Artillerymen on a hillside are trying to hit a target behind a mountain on the other side of a river. Their cannon is at (x, y) = (3, 250) where x is in kilometers and y is in meters. The target is at (x, y) = (-2, 50). In order to avoid hitting the mountain on the other side of the river, the projectile from the cannon must go through the point (x, y) = (-1, 410).

Write the equation for the problem.
