Standard deviations, σ, is generally preferred over range. Reason being, it is calculated from all the data and when there is outliers it will not be impacted as much as the range. It is great to not also that, The IQR is preferred to the standard deviation when the distribution is very highly skewed or when there are severe outliers, because the IQR is less sensitive to this features than standard deviation.

Two burgers and one hotdog cost $4.82. At the same price ,one burger and two hotdogs cost $3.70. How much does a hotdog cost?
STatiana [176]
Hello!

Let's use 'x' to represent the cost of the burger, and 'y' to represent the cost of the hotdog.

2x + y = 482

× + 2y = 370

2x + 47 = 740

-3y = -258

y = 86 cents

2x + 86 = 482

2x = 396

x = 198

A burger costs $1.98 and a hot dog costs $.86

I hope this didn't confuse you, I'm not very good at explaining!

Find an equation of the plane through the point (−1,−5,−2)(−1,−5,−2) with normal vector n=⟨−5,−4,−1⟩n=⟨−5,−4,−1⟩.
Ostrovityanka [42]
Consider this option:
1. given: n(A;B;C)=n(-5;-4;-1) and A(-1;-5;-2)=A(x₀;y₀;z₀).
Common view of equation for a plane is Ax+By+Cz+D=0, where A,B,C,D - numbers.
2. from another side using coordinates of A and normal vector it is possible to make up the equation: A(x-x₀)+B(y-y₀)+C(z-z₀)=0 ⇒ -5(x+1)-4(y+5)-(z+2)=0; ⇒ -5x-4y-z-27=0 or 5x+4y+z+27=0.

A rectangle is twice as long as it is wide the area is 72 find the length
Bingel [31]
Area=lw
l=2w
aera=2l^2
72=area

72=2l^2
divide both sides by 2
36=l^2
sqrt both sides
6=l
length=6 units
