The manager of a warehouse would like to know how many errors are made when a product’s serial number is read by a bar-code read

er. Six samples are collected of the number of scanning errors: 36, 14, 21, 39, 11, and 2 errors, per 1,000 scans each.
What is the mean and standard deviation for these six samples?

Mean: 20.5

Standard Deviation: 11.5

The mean is the total of the numbers divided by the amount of numbers. So, add 36 + 14 + 21 + 39 + 11 + 2 to get 123. Now, divide 123 by 6 to find that the mean is 20.5.

The standard deviation is the mean of the distances from the numbers to the mean. So, find the distance from the mean for each number. You get 15.5, 6.5, 0.5, 18.5, 9.5, and 18.5. Find the mean of these distances. Start by adding them together to get 69, then divide that by 6 to get a standard deviation of 11.5.

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Six samples are collected of the number of scanning errors: 36, 14, 21, 39, 11, and 2 errors

Mean=(Sum of all observations)/(Total number of observations)

        =(36+14+21+39+11+2)/6

        = 123/6

        = 20.5

Standard deviation is the square root of mean of squares of deviation around mean

Deviation around mean:

36-20.5, 14-20.5, 21-20.5, 39-20.5, 11-20.5, and 2-20.5

15.5,-6.5,0.5,18.5,-9.5 and -18.5

Square of deviations:

240.25,42.25,0.25,342.25,90.25 and 342.25

Mean of square of deviations

=(240.25+42.25+0.25+342.25+90.25+342.25)/6

=176.25

square root of mean of deviations= \sqrt{176.25}=13.28

Hence, Standard deviation=13.28

and Mean=20.5

QveST [7]
You have to multiply 75 x 45 which is 3,375. Then, you subtract 24,580 - 3,375 which is 21,205. Hope this helped. :)

What is the justification for step 2? 4(x-5)= -12 Justification Step 1: 4x-20=-12 Distributive Property Step 2 4x= 8 ? Step 3 x=
matrenka [14]

Answer:

addition property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation 4(x-5) = -12

Expand

4x - 20 = -12

Add 20 to both sides (addition property of equality)

4x-20+20 = -12+20

4x = 8

x = 8/4

x = 2

Hence the value of x is 2

The justification for step 2 is addition property of equality

Write the linear equation in slope intercept form 1,3 and -3,-5
oksian1 [2.3K]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

We have two points through which the line passes:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 1,3)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (- 3, -5)

We found the slope:

m = \frac{y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}

Substituting we have:

m = \frac {-5-3} {- 3-1} = \frac {-8} {- 4} = 2

Thus, the equation is of the form:

y = 2x + b

We substitute one of the points and find the cut-off point:

3 = 2 (1) + b\\3 = 2 + b\\3-2 = b\\b = 1

Finally, the equation is:

y = 2x + 1

ANswer:

y = 2x + 1
