9 : 19 = 6 : x
9 . x = 19 . 6
9x = 114
x = 12,6

Answer=12.6

QR=9
QP=6
TU=19
TS=?

The triangles are similar, so the following equation can be made

9 6
____=____
19 x

Cross multiply
9x=114
divide both sides by 9
x=12.6 (with the 6 repeating) or 12 2/3

TS=12.6

Calculate the sample mean and sample variance for the following frequency distribution of heart rates for a sample of American a

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

$Mean = 68.9$

$s^2 =18.1$ --- Variance

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\begin{array}{cccccc}{Class} & {51-58} & {59-66} & {67-74} & {75-82} & {83-90} \ \\ {Frequency} & {6} & {3} & {11} & {13} & {4} \ \end{array}$

Solving (a): Calculate the mean.

The given data is a grouped data. So, first we calculate the class midpoint (x)

For 51 - 58.

$x = \frac{1}{2}(51+58) = \frac{1}{2}(109) = 54.5$

For 59 - 66

$x = \frac{1}{2}(59+66) = \frac{1}{2}(125) = 62.5$

For 67 - 74

$x = \frac{1}{2}(67+74) = \frac{1}{2}(141) = 70.5$

For 75 - 82

$x = \frac{1}{2}(75+82) = \frac{1}{2}(157) = 78.5$

For 83 - 90

$x = \frac{1}{2}(83+90) = \frac{1}{2}(173) = 86.5$

So, the table becomes:

$\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {54.5} & {62.5} & {70.5} & {78.5} & {86.5} \ \\ {Frequency} & {6} & {3} & {11} & {13} & {4} \ \end{array}$

The mean is then calculated as:

$Mean = \frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}$

$Mean = \frac{54.5*4+62.5*3+70.5*11+78.5*13+86.5*4}{6+3+11+13+4}$

$Mean = \frac{2547.5}{37}$

$Mean = 68.9$ -- approximated

Solving (b): The sample variance:

This is calculated as:

$s^2 =\frac{\sum (x - \overline x)^2}{\sum f - 1}$

So, we have:

$s^2 =\frac{(54.5-68.9)^2+(62.5-68.9)^2+(70.5-68.9)^2+(78.5-68.9)^2+(86.5-68.9)^2}{37 - 1}$

$s^2 =\frac{652.8}{36}$

$s^2 =18.1$ -- approximated

A University has 30,600 students think school counselor estimates that 2% of the students break three on my languages in a rando

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Counselor's estimate isn't correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students in university = 30,600

2% break 3 of the languages

Therefore, 2/100 × 30600 = 612 students break 3 of the languages in the University according to the counselor.

In a random sample of 240 students, 20 break 3 of the languages.

% = 20/240 × 100 = 8.33%

SinceTotal number of students = 30,600

Therefore, 30,600/240 = 127.5

Which means 127.5 × 20 = 2550.

Which means 2550 students break 3 of the languages as against the 612 students stated by the counselor.
