Answer:
The correct statement is:
On average, the height of a garden gnome varies 3.2 inches from the mean of 6 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given a data of 11 gardens as:
2 9 1 23 3 7 10 2 10 9 7
Now on removing the outlier i.e. 23 (since it is the very large value as compared to other data points) the entries are as follows:
x |x-x'|
2 4
9 3
1 5
3 3
7 1
10 4
2 4
10 4
9 3
7 1
Now mean of the data is denoted by x' and is calculated as:
Hence, Mean(x')=6
Now,
∑ |x-x'|=32
Now mean of the absolute deviation is:
This means that , On average, the height of a garden gnome varies 3.2 inches from the mean of 6 inches.
The best synonym for that kind of legend is key. Hope this helps.
Answer:
4/8
Step-by-step explanation:
There are an infinite number of fractions equal to 1/2, but the number line in the question has 8 spaces, and shows 1 divided into 8 pieces. Therefore, the answer to this question is likely 4/8.
(may I ask why exactly this is put as a college level problem?)
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
mean (μ) = 70 years, standard deviation (σ)= 5.5 years.
a) The z score measures how many standard deviation a raw score is above or below the mean. It is given as:
, for a sample size of n, the z score is:
Given a sample of 5 turtles, we have to calculate the z score for x = 60 and x = 80.
For x = 60:
For x = 80:
The probability that a mean life of a random sample of 5 such turtles falls between 60 and 80 years = P(60 < x < 80) = P(-4.07 < z < 4.07) = P(z < 4.07) - P(z < -4.07) = 1 - 0 = 1 = 100%
b) The z score that corresponds to top 10% is -1.28.
