1/7f- 5 1/2= 9/14. what is f?

1 answer:

8 0

To solve this equation, we have to isolate the variable f, or get it alone on one side of the equation.

1/7f - 5 1/2 = 9/14

To do this, we need to add 5 1/2 to both sides of the equation to 1) cancel out the - 5 1/2 on the left side of the equation, and 2) maintain equality both sides of the equation.

1/7f - 5 1/2 + 5 1/2 = 9/14 + 5 1/2

1/7f = 6 2/14

Next, we have to divide both sides by 1/7, to get rid of the coefficient of f on the left side of the equation.

1/7f ÷ 1/7 = 6 2/14 ÷ 1/7

f = 43

Therefore, the the value of f is 43.

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: sigma is used for measuring Population Standard Deviation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lower case Greek letter 'sigma' is denoted by the symbol ( $\sigma$ ).

This symbol indicates the Population Standard Deviation of the data. Standard deviation means how much variation or dispersion is there in our data. Squaring of standard deviation gives us Variance which is denoted by the symbol $\sigma ^{2}$ .

Formula for Population Standard deviation ( $\sigma$ ) is = $\sqrt{\frac{\sum (x_i-\mu )^{2}}{N}}$ ,

where $x_i$ = each value from our list of data

$\mu$ = Population mean of data

N = Number of observations in our data

Standard deviation can never be negative and it is very much sensitive to outliers in our data.
