In statistics, mean is the average in a set of data collected. To calculate the mean, you have to add up all the numbers in the table and divide it by the number of data that exists. For example, if the data set is 2 4 1 5 2 8, the mean will be:

mean = \frac{(2+4+1+5+2+8)}{6}= 3.6

So, for this data set, the mean is 3.6.

The median is also a average number, however, the median is the middle value in the list. For example, with the data set above, the median is 3, because, as the set has an even number of data, the middle term would be the mean of the two middle number, in other words:

median = \frac{1+5}{2} = 3

The standard deviation (σ) is the spread of data distribution, which means it's how "far" a number is from the mean of the set. The formula is

σ = √∑ (x - μ)²/N, where ∑ is the total sum; μ is the mean; and N is the number of data points in the sample. So, to calculate the standard deviation, using the example:

1) Calculate the mean of the set: μ=3.6

2) Find the difference between each data point and the mean and then, the square of each one:

(2-3.6)² = 2.56;

(4-3.6)² = 0.16

(1-3.6)² = 6.76

(5-3.6)² = 1.96

(2-3.6)² = 2.56

(8-3.6)² = 19.36

3) Add up all the squares: ∑= 33.36

4) Divide by the number of data points: \frac{33.36}{6}=5.56

5) Take the square root: σ = 2.36

For the set of numbers above (2,4,1,5,2,8), the standard deviation is

σ = 2.36.

The back of Dante's property is a creek. Dante would like to enclose a rectangular area, using the creek as one side and fencing
Allushta [10]

The correct value is 720 ft of fencing.

Answer:

Max Area = 64800 sq.ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A square will always give us the maximum area.

Thus, one side would be;

720/4 = 180 feet

So, we want a square 180 ft by 180 ft

however, from the question, we are to use the creek as one side. So, we'll take the 180 ft that we don't need because of the creek and then add it to the opposite side to get 180 + 180 = 360 ft.

Thus,we now have a rectangle with dimensions: 180 ft by 360 ft

Area is given by;

area = length × width

Maximum Area = 180 × 360

Max Area = 64800 sq.ft

Sole m-2/12=1/6<br> a.4<br> b.1<br> c.0<br> d.2
riadik2000 [5.3K]
The answer would be A. 4
Here’s what I would do.
Multiply both sides by 12 so u can get m- 2 by itself.
m-2= 2
How’d I get the two? It comes from when I multiplied 12 on both sides. 12/6= 2
Now ur equation should be
m-2=2
Do the opposite and add two to both sides to get the variable by itself.
m=4

Hope this helps :)))

Ms.beatly Is trying to get healthy and starts running in the morning.She is able to run 5 miles in 45 minutes how many how many
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

1. 9 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If she runs 5 miles in 45 minutes, you have 5 miles = 45 minutes. If you divide both sides of this ratio by 5, you get 1 miles = 9 minutes

2. Find out how many each person sells per week:

Emily: 4 boxes = 2 weeks

divide both sides by 2

2 boxes = 1 week

Jose: 9 boxes = 3 weeks

divide both sides by 3

3 boxes = 1 week

This means that jose sells more, because 3 boxes > 2 boxes
