This chart represents a proportional relationship. The rate of change will be 4.

<h3>What is the constant of proportionality?</h3>

Firstly, there is a proportional relationship.

Two values x and y are said to be in a proportional relationship if x=ky, where x and y are variables and k is a constant.

The constant k is called the constant of proportionality.

Given;

x y

1 4

2 8

3 12

4 16

Here, x = ky

put the first value

k = 1/4

This chart represents a proportional relationship.

So the rate of change will be

$Rate = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\\\\Rate = \dfrac{8 - 4}{2 - 1}\\\\Rate = 4$

$\textsf{Mean}\:\overline{X}=\sf \dfrac{\textsf{sum of all the data values}}{\textsf{total number of data values}}$

$\implies \sf Mean\:(Nilo)=\dfrac{5+6+14+15}{4}=\dfrac{40}{4}=10$

$\implies \sf Mean\:(Lisa)=\dfrac{8+9+11+12}{4}=\dfrac{40}{4}=10$

<h3><u>Standard Deviation</u></h3>

$\displaystyle \textsf{Standard Deviation }s=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum X^2-\dfrac{(\sum X)^2}{n}}{n-1}}$

$\begin{aligned}\displaystyle \textsf{Standard Deviation (Nilo)} & =\sqrt{\dfrac{(5^2+6^2+14^2+15^2)-\dfrac{(5+6+14+15)^2}{4}}{4-1}}\\\\& = \sqrt{\dfrac{482-\dfrac{40^2}{4}}{3}}\\\\& = \sqrt{\dfrac{82}{3}}\\\\& = 5.23\end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned}\displaystyle \textsf{Standard Deviation (Lisa)} & =\sqrt{\dfrac{(8^2+9^2+11^2+12^2)-\dfrac{(8+9+11+12)^2}{4}}{4-1}}\\\\& = \sqrt{\dfrac{410-\dfrac{40^2}{4}}{3}}\\\\& = \sqrt{\dfrac{10}{3}}\\\\& = 1.83\end{aligned}$

<h3><u>Summary</u></h3>

Nilo has a mean score of 10 and a standard deviation of 5.23.

Lisa has a mean score of 10 and a standard deviation of 1.83.

The <u>mean</u> scores are the <u>same</u>.

Nilo's standard deviation is higher than Lisa's. Therefore, Nilo's test scores are more <u>spread out</u> that Lisa's, which means Lisa's test scores are more <u>consistent</u>.

A rectangular parking lot must have a perimeter of 440 feet and an area of at least 8000 square feet. Describe the possible leng

tangare [24]

Answer:

The possible parking lengths are 45.96 feet and 174.031 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of rectangular plot and y be the breadth of rectangular plot

A rectangular parking lot must have a perimeter of 440 feet

Perimeter of rectangular plot =2(l+b)=2(x+y)=440

2(x+y)=440

x+y=220

y=220-x

We are also given that an area of at least 8000 square feet.

So, $xy \leq 8000$

So, $x(220-x) \leq 8000$

$220x-x^2 \leq 8000$

So, $220x-x^2 = 8000\\-x^2+220x-8000=0$

General quadratic equation : $ax^2+bx+c=0$

Formula : $x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$x=\frac{-220 \pm \sqrt{220^2-4(-1)(-8000)}}{2(-1)}\\x=\frac{-220 + \sqrt{220^2-4(-1)(-8000)}}{2(-1)} , \frac{-220 - \sqrt{220^2-4(-1)(-8000)}}{2(-1)}\\x=45.96,174.031$

So, The possible parking lengths are 45.96 feet and 174.031 feet
