STATISTICS The most familiar statistical measure is the arithmetic mean, or average. A second important statistical measure is t

he standard deviation, which is a measure of how far the data are from the mean. For example, the mean score on the Wechsler IQ test is 100 and the standard deviation is 15. This means that people within one standard deviation of the mean have IQ scores that are 15 points higher or lower than the mean. One year, the mean mathematics score on the ACT test was 20.9 with a standard deviation of 5.3. Write an absolute value equation to find the maximum and minimum scores within one standard deviation of the mean. Use your equation to find the minimum score that is within one standard deviation of the mean

The absolute value equation for the scores within one standard deviation of the mean is:

|x - 20.9| = 5.3.

The minimum score that is within one standard deviation of the mean is of 15.6.

<h3>What is the absolute value function?</h3>

The absolute value function is defined by:

  • |x| = x, x >= 0.
  • |x| = x, x < 0.

It measures the distance of a point x to the origin of x = 0.

One standard deviation is of 5.3, while the mean is of 20.9, hence the absolute value equation for the scores within one standard deviation of the mean is:

|x - 20.9| = 5.3.

Which means that the minimum score is:

x - 20.9 = -5.3

x = 15.6.

One year, the population of a city was 352,000. Several years later it was 337,920.
kvasek [131]

hi

here is  the  method :

you take  Value 1  and Value 2

And you do :   ( Value 2 - Value 1)  / (Value 1 )    * 100

Here we have :    Value 1 = 352 000

                            Value 2 =  337 920

So now we apply :

( 337 920 - 352 000 )  /  ( 352 000)   * 100 =  -4  

Population decreased by by  4 %

You can also make :  

352 000 * X = 337 920

                 X =  337 920 / 352 000

                 X = 0.96

if  the multiplier is  0.96 ,  it's mean that we lost  1 -0.96 = 0.04  

which mean  - 4%

Please try to explain the answer and I'll mark the Brainliest.

Inside a triangle, all inside angles add up to 180°

So, add the two angles:

26.4°+33.7°=60.1°

180°-60.1°=119.9°

b=119.9°

Write an expression that represents the perimeter of the football field. Let x represent the length of the football field. Inclu
dlinn [17]
Expression with parenthesis: = 2 ( l + w)
Expression without parenthesis = 2l + 2w

The property we used is known as "Distributive Property"

Let, width = w
Length = w + 70

Perimeter would be: P = 2(w+70+w)
p = 2(2w+70)
p = 4w + 140

Hope this helps!
