Answer:
Jillian is incorrect because square roots of perfect squares are rational.
Step-by-step explanation:
√25 = √(5²) = 5 - rational
25 is perfect square.
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
We're using the Pythagorean theorem here since it's a right triangle.
a^2 (side) + b^2 (side) = c^2 (hypotenuse)
12 = a
x = b
15 = c
12^2 + b^2 = 15^2
144 + b^2 = 225
- 144 - 144 (subtracting 144 from both sides to isolate b)
b^2 = 81
(getting rid of the exponent by squaring both sides)
b = 9
x = 9
2000+600+80+7 is the answer
Answer:
Dispersion
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a set of scores {a1, a2, ..., an} ordered in value, the range can be described as the difference between the highest and the lowest value. We can write it as:
range = an - a1
Thus, the range provides information about the dispersion of our set of values. A high range means that the highest and the lowest value are highly separated, on the other hand, a low range mean that there is a little difference between those values.
This is usually used to measure dispersion on a set of values, together with standard deviation and interquantile range. However, we cannot maintain that one is better than the others.
