The measured data is
x=[10.56, 9.52, 9.73, 9.80, 9.78, 10.91].

Calculate the mean.
m = (10.56+9.52+9.73+9.80+9.78+10.91)/6 = 10.05

Calculate the deviations from the mean.
k = x - m
   = [0.51, -0.53, -0.32, -0.25, -0.27, 0.86]

Calculate the absolute deviation from the mean.
d= \frac{1}{6} | (0.51-0.53-0.32-0.25-0.27+0.86) | = |1.184\times10^{-15}| \approx 0

Answer: 0

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Incomplete question

Complete question;

A group of eight golfers paid $430 to play a round of golf . Of the golfers one was a member and 7 were not.

Another group of golfers consists of two members and one nonmember. They paid a total of $75. What is the cost for a member to play a round of golf, and what is the cost for a nonmember?

Answer: X = $82.695 for members

Y = $49.615 for non members

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use X to denote members and Y for non-members.

Therefore, amount paid by one member to play + amount paid by 7 non-members to play = 430

X + 7Y = 430. . .1

Amount paid by 2 members to play + amount paid by one non-member to play = 215

2X + Y = 215. . .2

Solving both equations simultaneously

X+7Y = 430

2X +Y = 215

Therefore, from eqn 1. X = 430-7y

Substituting this into wan 2 gives

2(430-7Y) + Y = 215

860-14Y + Y = 215

860-215 =13Y

645 = 13y

Y = 49.615

Therefore substituting Y = 49.615 into any equation above

X + 7(49.615) = 430

X = 430-347.05

X = 82.695

What is the answer to ax + 7 = 8x + b<br> when x=9
xxTIMURxx [149]

Hey there!

ax + 7 = 8x + b

when x=9, so:

a(9) +7= 8(9) +b

9a +7= 72+b

I hope this helps?
