Variance is given by s^2 = [summation (x - mean)^2] / n.
mean = (90 + 75 + 72 + 88 + 85) / 5 = 82
Variance = [(90 - 82)^2 + (75 - 82)^2 + (72 - 82)^2 + (88 - 82)^2 + (85 - 82)] / 5
= [8^2 + (-7)^2 + (-10)^2 + 6^2 + 3^2] / 5
= (64 + 49 + 100 + 36 + 9] / 5
= 258 / 5
=258.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The value of the  numerator of the calculation of the variance= 258

and Variance= 51.6

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We know that in order to calculate the variance we need to follow following steps:

  •   First calculate mean.
  • Then subtract each of the data points from means and square the difference quantity.
  • Lastly calculate the mean of these squared quantity.

The data points are:

   90, 75, 72, 88, 85

The mean of these data points are:

Mean=\dfrac{90+75+72+88+85}{5}\\\\\\Mean=\dfrac{410}{5}\\\\\\Mean=82

Now on finding the difference terms i.e.

90-82=8

75-82= -7

72-82= -10

88-82=6

and  85-82=3

The square of these difference term is:

8²=64

(-7)²=49

(-10)²=100

6²=36

and  3²=9

Hence, the mean of these squared quantity i.e. Variance is:

Variance=\dfrac{64+49+100+36+9}{5}\\\\\\Variance=\dfrac{258}{5}\\\\\\Variance=51.6

How many liters will a U.S. 6-quart container hold? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth
vovikov84 [41]
<span>You are given volume of 6 US quart. You are required to convert this into liters and be rounded off to the nearest hundredth.  Keep in mind that for volume, every one liter is equal to 1.05669 US quart. So you need to divide the 6 US quart. This is equal to 6.34014 liters. To round of the nearest hundredth, the ocation of the hundredth is the four in 6.3<u>4</u>014. since after four is zero, the round off rule states that from 0-4, the preceding number remains unchanged. So the final answer is 6.34 liters.</span>

Find the midpoint of the segment between the points (17,−11) and (−14,−16)
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

(1.5, -13.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint Formula: (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} ,\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )

Simply plug in our coordinates into the formula:

x = (17 - 14)/2

x = 3/2

y = (-11 - 16)/2

y = -27/2

Find the volume of the cone. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Alchen [17]

Answer:

The volume of the cone is 16.8 in cubed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a cone is πr^2 multiplied by h/3. The r is radius and h is height. So throwing in the values for the variables we get 16.8 in cubed.
