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.

Hello!

Answer:

  • A. 2 < x < 10

Step-by-step explanation:

With two congruent sides the third side is greater against a greater angle.

<u>34 < 36, therefore:</u>

  • 3x - 6 < 24
  • 3x  < 30
  • x < 10

<u>And, the angle should have a positive value:</u>

  • 3x - 6 > 0
  • 3x > 6
  • x > 2

<u>Combined, we get:</u>

  • 2 < x < 10

HOW is it helpful to write numbers in different ways?
Alisiya [41]
It is helpful to write them in different ways
some ways to write them are
1.fractions
2.decimals
3.squareroots (if applicable)

so it would be more helpful in an equation to leave 6/7 in fractional form if  you are going to manipulate it more, because 0.857142857142... is much harder to keep track of than 6/7


and sometimes, they want a percent which is easier to convert to from decimal form than from fractinoal form so ex  0.857142857142...=85.7% vs 6/7 to percent

sometimes there will be square roots and they are easier if left like that ex
√2=1.4142135623...
it would be easier to leav it in square root

it depends on the equation you are trying to solve, because different forms have different pros and cons, some are easier to work with in a certain form but not in another, sometimes, you will need to change between multipule forms during the same problem

Find the area of the circle. Leave your answer in terms of π. radius is 14 in.
Ray Of Light [21]

The formula of the area of the circle:

π × radius^2

In this case, given that the radius is 14 inches:

π × 14^2

=196π square inches

Therefore the answer is 196π square inches.

Hope it helps!
