Below are the range and standard deviation for a set of data. Use the range rule of thumb and compare it to the standard deviati

on listed below. Does the range rule of thumb produce an acceptable​ approximation? Suppose a researcher deems the approximation as acceptable if it has an error less than​ 15%. Range equals 2.76 standard deviation equals 0.807 the estimated standard deviation is nothing. ​(round to three decimal places as​ needed.) is this an acceptable​ approximation?
a. Yes​, because the error of the range rule of​ thumb's approximation is greater than​ 15%.
b. No​, because the error of the range rule of​ thumb's approximation is less than​ 15%.
c. Yes​, because the error of the range rule of​ thumb's approximation is less than​ 15%.
d. No​, because the error of the range rule of​ thumb's approximation is greater than​ 15%.

Solution: We are given:

Range =2.76

Standard-deviation=0.807

Now let's find the estimated value of standard deviation using the range rule of thumb. According to range rule of thumb, the estimate of standard deviation is:

S\approx \frac{2.76}{4}= 0.690

Therefore the estimated standard deviation is 0.690

is this an acceptable​ approximation?

Answer: c. Yes​, because the error of the range rule of​ thumb's approximation is less than​ 15%.

Explanation:

The difference between estimated standard deviation and actual standard deviation is:

0.807 - 0.690 = 0.117

Now let's find the percentage of error

\frac{0.117}{0.807} \times 100= 14.50\%.

Therefore, the error of the range rule of​ thumb's approximation is less than​ 15%.

Find the value of x in kite EFGH<br>​
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

x = 105

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of all interior angles of any four-sided figure has 360 degrees

∡F and ∡H are equal

add all four expressions and set them equal to 360

x + (x + 5) +( x + 5) + (140 - x) = 360

combine like terms

2x + 150 = 360

2x = 210

x = 105

What are the solutions to the equation?<br> 7x^3=28x
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

7x³ = 28x is our equation. We want its solutions.

When you have x and different powers, set the whole thing equal to zero.

7x³ = 28x

7x³ - 28x = 0

Now notice there's a common x in both terms. Let's factor it out.

x (7x² - 28) = 0

As 7 is a factor of 7 and 28, it too can be factored out.

x (7) (x² - 4) = 0

We can further factor x² - 4. We want a pair of numbers that multiply to 4 and whose sum is zero. The pairs are 1 and 4, 2 and 2. If we add 2 and -2 we get zero.

x (7) (x - 2) (x + 2) = 0

Now we use the Zero Product Property - if some product multiplies to zero, so do its pieces.

x = 0        -----> so x = 0

7 = 0       -----> no solution

x - 2 = 0   ----> so x = 2   after adding 2 to both sides

x + 2 = 0  ---> so = x - 2  after subtracting 2 to both sides


Thus the solutions are x = 0, x = 2, x = -2.

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

n=3\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

2n=1\times \left(3\sqrt{2}\right)\times \:2

2n=2 \times 3\sqrt{2}

2n=6\sqrt{2}

\frac{2n}{2}=\frac{6\sqrt{2}}{2}

n=3\sqrt{2}
