Let's figure this out as though we have no idea what the answer would be.

Step One
Find the new five numbers.
3*3, 8*3, 12*3, 17*3, 25*3
9 , 24 , 36, 51, 75

Step 2
Find the average
(9 + 24 + 36 + 51 + 75)/5 = 195/5 = 39

Step 3
Subtract the individual numbers from the average
(39 - 9) = 30
(39 -24) = 15
(39 - 36) = 3
(39 - 51) = - 12
(39 - 75) = -36

Step 4 
Square the results from Step 3
30^2 = 900
15^2 = 225
3^2 = 9
(-12)^2 = 144
(-36)^2 = 1296

Step 5
Take the average of the results from step 4
(900 + 225 + 9 + 144 + 1296)/5
2574 / 5 = 514.8

Step 6
Take the square root of the result from step 5
deviation = sqrt(514.8)
deviation = 22.689

Step seven 
Compare the two standard deviations.
s2/s1 = 22.689 / 7.563 = 3

Conclusion
If you are given 1 set of numbers to find a population standard deviation and you multiply each member by a, then the result will be a * the standard population deviation of the first set of numbers.

Note
Your calculator will do this as well, but you have to know how to enter the data into your calculator. That requires that you follow the directions carefully.

BRAINLY PLS HELP ME OUT ON THE 5,2 what the m value I beg you ASP
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

hypotenuse = 5

height = 2

Using Pythagoras theorem,

5² = 2² + m²

=> 25 = 4 + m²

=> 25–4 = m²

=> √21 = m

=> m = 4.58

Value of m is 4.58

Determine as a linear relation in x, y, z the plane given by the vector function F(u, v) = a + u b + v c when a = 2 i − 2 j + k,
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

2x - y - 3z = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the set

{i, j}  = {(1,0), (0,1)}

is a base in \mathbb{R}^2

and F is linear, then

<em>{F(1,0), F(0,1)}  </em>

would be a base of the plane generated by F.

F(1,0) = a+b = (2i-2j+k)+(i+2j+k) = 3i+2k

F(0,1) = a+c = (2i-2j+k)+(2i+j+2k) = 4i-j+3k

Now, we just have to find the equation of the plane that contains the vectors 3i+2k and 4i-j+3k

We need a normal vector which is the cross product of 3i+2k and 4i-j+3k

(3i+2k)X(4i-j+3k) = 2i-j-3k

The equation of the plane whose normal vector is 2i-j-3k and contains the point (3,0,2) (the end of the vector F(1,0)) is given by

2(x-3) -1(y-0) -3(z-2) = 0

or what is the same

2x - y - 3z = 0

What is the sum of the zeros of the function: y= x^2 - 5x + 6?
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros are the values of x for which y = 0

Quadratic formula

x = [5 ± √(5² – 4·1·6)] / [2·1]

 = [5 ± √1] / 2

 = [5 ± 1] /2

 = 2, 3

sum of zeros = 5
