less than; Set A
It is less than, because if you add half of the sum of the least and greatest numbers of the set to the lowest number in the set, you get the median. The median of Set A was 17, and the Median of Set B was 17.5.
Set A is more variable in terms of range, because it has a larger range.

Answer:
x = 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply by 3 and solve the resulting 2-step equation.
5 = (1/3)(2x +12)
15 = 2x +12 . . . . . . multiply by 3
3 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . subtract 12
3/2 = x . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

Answer: 2 buses and 4 vans would be needed
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of buses that would be needed.
Let y represent the number of vans that would be needed.
There will be six drivers, and two different types of vehicles. This means that
x + y = 6
142 students are going on a field trip. A bus can hold 51 people while a van can hold 10. This means that
51x + 10y = 142 - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 6 - y into equation 1, it becomes
51(6 - y) + 10y = 142
306 - 51y + 10y = 142
- 51y + 10y = 142 - 306
- 41y = - 164
y = - 164/ - 41
y = 4
x = 6 - y = 6 - 4
x = 2
