Bc would equal 26. Since ab and bc would equal the same thing, you would add (3x-1) to (3x-1) and equal it to (8x-20) and solve.

Suppose that you were not given the sample mean and sample standard deviation and instead you were given a list of data for the
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

So, the sample mean is 31.3.

So, the sample standard deviation is 6.98.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a list of data for the speeds (in miles per hour) of the 20 vehicles. So, N=20.

We calculate the sample mean :

\mu=\frac{19 +19 +22 +24 +25 +27 +28+ 37 +35 +30+ 37+ 36+ 39+ 40+ 43+ 30+ 31+ 36+ 33+ 35}{20}\\\\\mu=\frac{626}{20}\\\\\mu=31.3

So, the sample mean is 31.3.

We use the formula for a sample standard deviation:

\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{1}{N-1}\sum_{i=1}^{N}(x_i-\mu)^2}

Now, we calculate the sum

\sum_{i=1}^{20}(x_i-31.3)^2=(19-31.3)^2+(19-31.3)^2+(22-31.3)^2+(24-31.3)^2+(25-31.3)^2+(27-31.3)^2+(28-31.3)^2+(37-31.3)^2+(35-31.3)^2+(30-31.3)^2+(37-31.3)^2+(36-31.3)^2+(39-31.3)^2+(40-31.3)^2+(43-31.3)^2+(30-31.3)^2+(31-31.3)^2+(36-31.3)^2+(33-31.3)^2+(35-31.3)^2\\\\\sum_{i=1}^{20}(x_i-31.3})^2=926.2\\

Therefore, we get

\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{1}{N-1}\sum_{i=1}^{N}(x_i-\mu)^2}\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{1}{19}\cdot926.2}\\\\\sigma=6.98

So, the sample standard deviation is 6.98.

Answer:

There is a circle with a diameter[d] of 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

the Radius=diameter /2=2/2=1 units

now

circumference=2πr=2×π×1=6.29=6 units

area=πr²=3.14 unit²

What is the volume of a shipping cube with dimensions of 2 and 1/2 feet
Fantom [35]

For this case we have that by definition, the volume of a cube is given by:

V = l ^ 3

Where:

l: It's the side of the cube

According to the statement data:

l = 2 \frac {1} {2} = \frac {2 * 2 + 1} {2} = \frac {5} {2}

Substituting in the formula we have:

V = (\frac {5} {2}) ^ 3\\V = \frac {5 ^ 3} {2 ^ 3}\\V = \frac {125} {8}\\V = 15.625

Thus, the shipping cube volume is15.625 \ ft ^ 3

Answer:

15.625 \ ft ^ 3

If three times the larger of two numbers is four times the smaller and the difference between the numbers is 8, then the larger
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Larger number = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Smaller number = x

Larger number = y

y - x = 8    -----------(I)

3y = 4x  ---------------(II)

3y/4 = x

Plug in x = 3y/4 in equation (I)

y - \frac{3}{4}y = 8\\\\\frac{4}{4}y - \frac{3}{4}y = 8\\\\\frac{1}{4}y = 8\\

 y = 8*4

  y = 32

Plug in y = 32 in equation (II)

3y = 4x

3*32 = 4x

4x = 3*32

x = \frac{3*32}{4}

x = 3 *8

x = 24
