How many drops per minute?
There are 16 drops per ML.

1000 ML  =    1 L.
1L  =  1000 ML

Therefore 1.08 L  =  1.08 * 1000 = 1080 ML

16 drops  per ML means I ML has 16 drops.

Therefore 1080 ML has:    (1080 * 16) drops.

Number of drops per min:
Since the entire process took 3 hours =  3 * 60 minutes = 180 minutes.

Therefore Number of drops per minute  = Number of Drops / Time in minutes
                                                        = (1080 * 16) /(180)
                                                        = 96 drops per minute.

The mass of Jupiter is 1.898 × 10(27) kilograms, and the mass of Saturn is 5.68 × 10(26) kilograms. How much greater is Jupiter'
grandymaker [24]
Just subtract but take care of the power or else you can come up with wrong results !

so first make the power same ;

for Jupiter = 1.898× 10(27) = 18.98 × 10(26)
for Saturn = 5.68×10(26)

so now subtract = (18.98-5.68) × 10(26)
= 13.3 × 10(26)

so the answer is 13.3 ×10(26)
or, 1.33× 10(27)

A cellular phone company monitors monthly phone usage. The following data represent the monthly phone use in minutes of one part
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

The standard deviation increased but there was no change in the interquantile range          

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following data in the question:

320, 411, 348, 537, 420, 449, 462, 403, 454, 517, 515, 358, 438, 541, 387, 368, 502, 437, 431, 428.

n = 20

a) Formula:

\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n-1}}  

where x_i are data points, \bar{x} is the mean and n is the number of observations.  

Mean = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observation}}

Mean =\displaystyle\frac{8726}{20} = 436.3

Sum of squares of differences =

13525.69 + 640.09 + 7796.89 + 10140.49 + 265.69 + 161.29 + 660.49 + 1108.89 + 313.29 + 6512.49 + 6193.69 + 6130.89 + 2.89 + 10962.09 + 2430.49 + 4664.89 + 4316.49 + 0.49 + 28.09 + 68.89 = 75924.2

S.D = \sqrt{\frac{75924.2}{19}} = 63.21

Sorted Data = 320, 348, 358, 368, 387, 403, 411, 420, 428, 431, 437, 438, 449, 454, 462, 502, 515, 517, 537, 541

IQR = Q_3 - Q_1\\Q_3 = \text{upper median},\\Q_1 = \text{ lower median}

Median:\\\text{If n is odd, then}\\\\Median = \displaystyle\frac{n+1}{2}th ~term \\\\\text{If n is even, then}\\\\Median = \displaystyle\frac{\frac{n}{2}th~term + (\frac{n}{2}+1)th~term}{2}

Median = \frac{431 + 437}{2} = 434

Q_1 = \frac{387 + 403}{2} = 395\\\\Q_3 = \frac{462 + 502}{2} = 482

IQR = 482 - 395 = 87

b) After changing the observation

0, 411, 348, 537, 420, 449, 462, 403, 454, 517, 515, 358, 438, 541, 387, 368, 502, 437, 431, 428

Mean =\displaystyle\frac{8406}{20} = 420.3

Sum of squares of differences =

176652.09 + 86.49 + 5227.29 + 13618.89 + 0.09 + 823.69 + 1738.89 + 299.29 + 1135.69 + 9350.89 + 8968.09 + 3881.29 + 313.29 + 14568.49 + 1108.89 + 2735.29 + 6674.89 + 278.89 + 114.49 + 59.29 = 247636.2

S.D = \sqrt{\frac{247636.2}{19}} = 114.16

Sorted Data = 0, 348, 358, 368, 387, 403, 411, 420, 428, 431, 437, 438, 449, 454, 462, 502, 515, 517, 537, 541

Median = \frac{431 + 437}{2} = 434

Q_1 = \frac{387 + 403}{2} = 395\\\\Q_3 = \frac{462 + 502}{2} = 482

IQR = 482 - 395 = 87

Thus. the standard deviation increased but there was no change in the interquantile range.
