Using the definitions of the mean and of the standard deviation of a data-set, we have that:

  • The mean would increase.
  • The standard deviation would remain constant.

<h3>What are the mean and the standard deviation of a data-set?</h3>

  • The mean of a data-set is given by the <u>sum of all values in the data-set, divided by the number of values</u>.
  • The standard deviation of a data-set is given by the <u>square root of the sum of the differences squared between each observation and the mean, divided by the number of values</u>.

When the measure of 84 is added to the data-set, we have that:

  • A measure greater than the mean is added, hence the mean would increase.
  • The difference squared between 84 and the mean of 81 is of 9, which is the same as the standard deviation, which would remain constant.

A complex number is a number that can be written in the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers. In the complex number 4 + 2
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

In the complex number 4 + 2i, 4 is the <em>real </em>part. In the complex number 4 + 2i, 2 is the <em>imaginary </em>part.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two parts of the complex number are called the <em>real</em> part and the <em>imaginary</em> part. The imaginary part is identified by its multiplier of <em>i</em>.

In the given number, the 2 is multiplied by i, so 2 is the imaginary part. The other part, 4, is the real part.

How many six-digit odd numbers are possible if the left digit cannot be zero?
melisa1 [442]
We are asked for the number of <span>six-digit odd numbers that can be formed. the left-most digit should not be zero because it make the number -five digit already. An odd number ends only in 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9. Using counting, the 6th digit can only have 5 numbers, the 5th, 4th, 3rd, and 2nd can have, 10 numbers. The first number can only have 9 numbers. Hence the total number is 450,000</span>
