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.

QveST [7]

Answer:

x = 0.954

Step-by-step explanation:

We apply pythagorean to find x

(4-x)² = 1.2² + 2.8²

(4-x)² = 9.28

✓(4-x)² = ✓(9.28)²

4 - x = 3.046

- x = 3.046 - 4

- x = -0.954

x = 0.954

An architect planned to construct two similar stone pyramid structures in a park. The
kondaur [170]

Answer:

1) Change the length of side AB to 2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that both structures are similar, it follows that the ratio of their corresponding lengths are equal.

To find out what should be the correct length of AB that she should change to, set up the proportion showing the ratio of 2 corresponding lengths of both structures. Thus:

\frac{PR}{AC} = \frac{PQ}{AB}

We will assume AB is unknown.

PR = 7.5 ft

AC = 2.5 ft

PQ = 6 ft

Plug in the values into the equation

\frac{7.5}{2.5} = \frac{6}{AB}

Cross multiply

AB*7.5 = 6*2.5

AB*7.5 = 15

Divide both sides by 7.5

AB = 2

The architect should change the length of AB to 2 ft
