Answer:

<h2>3 caplets</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 1 caplet = 325 mg of medication, to calculate the number of caplet 975mg of medication will contain, we will follow the steps below;

Let 1 caplet = 325 mg of medication

x caplet = 975 mg of medication

Cross multiply

325 * x = 1 * 975

325x = 975

Divide both sides by 325

325x/325 = 975/325

x = 3

Hence 3 caplets contains 975 mg of medication.

Georgia [21]

Answer:

(1)55.5 feet

(2)7.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1

The diagram is attached below.

Using Trigonometric ratio

$\tan 48^\circ = \dfrac{h}{50} \\h=50 \times \tan 48^\circ\\h=55.5$ feet (to the nearest tenth)$

The height of the house is 55.5 feet to the nearest tenth.

Question 2

In the diagram, we are required to find the distance the bird must fly to be directly above the fish. This has been represented by x.

Using Trigonometric ratio

$\tan 15^\circ = \dfrac{2}{x} \\x \tan 15^\circ=2\\x=2 \div \tan 15^\circ\\x=7.5 $ feet (to the nearest tenth)$

The distance the bird must fly to be directly above the fish is 7.5 feet.

Consider a data set containing the following values: 70 65 71 78 89 68 50 75 The mean of the preceding values is 70.75. The devi

Leokris [45]

Answer:

If this is the sample data, the sample variance is 125.07 and the sample standard deviation is 11.18

If this is a population data, the population variance is 109.44 and the population standard deviation is 10.46

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following data-set:

70, 65, 71, 78, 89, 68, 50, 75

Deviations from the mean

–0.75, –5.75 , 0.25, 7.25, 18.25, –2.75, –20.75, 4.2

Sample size, n = 8

Sample:

$\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n-1}}$

where $x_i$ are data points, $\bar{x}$ is the mean and n is the number of observations.

Sum of squares of differences =

0.5625 + 33.0625 + 0.0625 + 52.5625 + 333.0625 + 7.5625 + 430.5625 + 18.0625 = 875.5

$s = \sqrt{\dfrac{875.5}{7}} = 11.18$

$\text{ Sample variance} = s^2 = 125.07$

Population:

$\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n}$

where $x_i$ are data points, $\bar{x}$ is the mean and n is the number of observations.

Sum of squares of differences =

0.5625 + 33.0625 + 0.0625 + 52.5625 + 333.0625 + 7.5625 + 430.5625 + 18.0625 = 875.5

$\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{875.5}{8}} = 10.46$

$\text{ Population variance} = \sigma^2 = 109.44$
