Describe how to round 3.987 to the nearest tenth.

First since you have a decimal the tenth place is to the right of the decimal. And the number in the tenths place is 9 so you look at the number 8 and since it is 5 or greater you round up one so now the 9 becomes 10 so the 9 will be the zero and the 3 becomes 4. So your number should be 4.0
Hope this helps :)

Consider a data set containing the following values: 70 65 71 78 89 68 50 75 The mean of the preceding values is 70.75. The devi

Leokris [45]

Answer:

If this is the sample data, the sample variance is 125.07 and the sample standard deviation is 11.18

If this is a population data, the population variance is 109.44 and the population standard deviation is 10.46

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following data-set:

70, 65, 71, 78, 89, 68, 50, 75

Deviations from the mean

–0.75, –5.75 , 0.25, 7.25, 18.25, –2.75, –20.75, 4.2

Sample size, n = 8

Sample:

$\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n-1}}$

where $x_i$ are data points, $\bar{x}$ is the mean and n is the number of observations.

Sum of squares of differences =

0.5625 + 33.0625 + 0.0625 + 52.5625 + 333.0625 + 7.5625 + 430.5625 + 18.0625 = 875.5

$s = \sqrt{\dfrac{875.5}{7}} = 11.18$

$\text{ Sample variance} = s^2 = 125.07$

Population:

$\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n}$

where $x_i$ are data points, $\bar{x}$ is the mean and n is the number of observations.

Sum of squares of differences =

0.5625 + 33.0625 + 0.0625 + 52.5625 + 333.0625 + 7.5625 + 430.5625 + 18.0625 = 875.5

$\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{875.5}{8}} = 10.46$

$\text{ Population variance} = \sigma^2 = 109.44$

Dan buys a car for £2100.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

£1837.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Cost of car P= £2100.

Rate r= 2.2%

Time t= 6 years

Now we want to find the worth after 6 years, let us apply the compound interest expression but this time for depreciation

A= P(1-r)^t

Substitute

A= 2100(1-0.022)^6

A= 2100*(0.978)^6

A= 2100*0.875

A= £1837.5

Hence the amount of the car after 6 years is £1837.5
