Question

complete parts a through d below
a. what is the age of the youngest actor to win the award?
31 years old
b. what is the age difference between the oldest and the youngest actress to win an award?
□ years

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the youngest actor's age

From the stem - and - leaf plot for actors, the youngest age is \(20\) (the first value in the actors' stem - and - leaf plot).

Step2: Identify the oldest actress's age

From the stem - and - leaf plot for actresses, the oldest age is \(80\) (the last value in the actresses' stem - and - leaf plot).

Step3: Calculate the age difference

The age difference \(d\) is calculated by subtracting the youngest actor's age from the oldest actress's age. So \(d=80 - 20\).

Answer:

a. \(20\) years old
b. \(60\) years
