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.

Ahat [919]

Answer:

3,000 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for the distance, in miles, between Mora's house and her cousin's house

Distance in miles =(2centimeters÷20centimeters) *300 miles

Distance in miles=10*300 miles

Distance in miles= 3,000 miles

Therefore the distance, in miles, between Mora's house and her cousin's house will be 3,000 miles

Please help i need this done
Ann [662]
3x - 2 = x + 1
2x = 3
x = 3/2
x = 1.5

3x - 2 = 3(1.5) - 2 = 2.5
or
x + 1 = 1.5 + 1 = 2.5

P = 4(2.5) = 10

perimeter of square is 10 cm so side of square = 2.5cm

Suppose measure of angle ABC equals 110, what is the measure of angle DBC?
shtirl [24]
There is no way of solving that unless we are given more information. Are ABC and DBC supplementary angles? If so, then m<DBC equals 70.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem tells you how to find the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 120 and 62:

  diagonal = √(120² +62²) = √18244 ≈ 135.07

The length of one of the braces is about 135.1 cm.
