<h3>Answer: Choice A)  sqrt(2)</h3>

==========================================

Explanation:

Add up all of the values

13.3+14.3+15.3+16.3+17.3 = 76.5

Then divide by 5 as there are n = 5 values in the set given

76.5/5 = 15.3

The mean of this data set is 15.3

-------------

Subtract the mean from each value to get this list of differences

x1 - mean = 13.3 - 15.3 = -2

x2 - mean = 14.3 - 15.3 = -1

x3 - mean = 15.3 - 15.3 = 0

x4 - mean = 16.3 - 15.3 = 1

x5 - mean = 17.3 - 15.3 = 2

-------------

Square each result from the previous section

(-2)^2 = 4

(-1)^2 = 1

(0)^2 = 0

(1)^2 = 1

(2)^2 = 4

Then add up those results

4+1+0+1+4 = 10

This is the sum of the squared differences.

------------

Divide the sum of the squared differences by n = 5 to get 10/5 = 2

The population variance is 2

The population standard deviation is the square root of this, so we get sqrt(2) as our final answer.

------------

Side note: This data set was fairly small, so computing the standard deviation by hand wasnt too painful. When it comes to larger data sets, it is smarter to use a spreadsheet program to easily calculate the answer. The drawback is that you wont be able to get an exact answer in terms of radicals (then again you could always use a CAS, which stands for "computer algebra system").

Solve the equation.
Levart [38]

Answer:

x=34

Step-by-step explanation:

6 - ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3

Subtract 6 from each side

6-6 - ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3-6

- ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = -3

Divide each side by a negative

 ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3

Cube each side

 ( x-7) ^ 1/3 ^3 = (3)^3

x-7 = 27

Add 7 to each side

x-7+7 = 27+7

x = 34

Check

6 - ( 34-7) ^ 1/3 = 3

6 - (27^1/3 = 3

6 -3 =3

3=3

Good solution

Find the perimeter use pi
balandron [24]
Since d x pi = circumference
I use 3.14 as pie

I did 9 x pi = 28.26 I DID NOT divide this by two because there are three half circles and 28.26 counts as two of them

Since there is another half circle I divide 28.26 by 2

28.26 + 14.13 = 42.39

Now plus the bottom length

42.39 + 9 = 51.39
