Considering that it has a higher coefficient of variation, the distribution of cell phone bills at Smithtown South High School is more spread out.

<h3>What is the coefficient of variation of a distribution?</h3>

The coefficient of variation for a distribution is given by the standard deviation of the distribution divided by the mean of the distribution. The higher the coefficient, the more spread out the distribution is.

For the distributions in this problem, the coefficients are given as follows:

  • Smithtown North High School: 11/183 = 0.0602.
  • Smithtown South High School: 21/181 = 0.1160.

Due to the higher coefficient of variation, the distribution of cell phone bills at Smithtown South High School is more spread out.

In statistics, the 68–95–99.7 rule, also known as the three-sigma rule or empirical rule, states that nearly all values lie within three standard deviations of the mean in a normal distribution.

About 68.27% of the values lie within one standard deviation of the mean. Similarly, about 95.45% of the values lie within two standard deviations of the mean. Nearly all (99.73%) of the values lie within three standard deviations of the mean.

In mathematical notation, these facts can be expressed as follows, where x is an observation from a normally distributed random variable, μ is the mean of the distribution, and σ is its standard deviation:

P( μ – σ ≤ x ≤ μ + σ ) ≈ 0.6827

P( μ –2σ ≤ x ≤ μ + 2σ ) ≈ 0.9545

P( μ –3σ ≤ x ≤ μ + 3σ ) ≈ 0.9973

So here A = μ – σ = 78.7 – 3.5 = 75.2 (answer

Which of the following functions represents a direct variation?
AnnyKZ [126]
It's B. Since the slope is -8/1 x. Slope is rise/run. The other answers doesn't make sense since the x is put in a different place.

Andreyy89

Answer: k = 55 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

to find J, subtract 122 from 180, you get 58. The total number of degrees is 180. Since L is given as 67, and 67+58=125. Simply subtract 125 from 180 which is 55 degrees
