Since these are box plots, they're based on a lot of data, and we cannot say for certain whether something will be true, but it can give us a good idea. So this means that options A & B are out, since they say 'will always', but we can never say for sure with box plots.

The boxes of the box plot represent basically the average of the data. The beginning of the box is the first quartile, the end of the box is the third quartile, and the line in the middle is the median, which is the middle of the data. Since the box in the box plot of Design A is greater than the box in the box plot of Design B, we can say it's likely that candle Design A will last longer than candle Design B, or option C.

Two companies, A and B, package snack-size bags of cashews. Let X represent the weight of the packages from company A, and let Y
Vitek1552 [10]

The answer choice that correctly calculates and interprets the standard deviation of the sum, S = X + Y is D. Sigma Subscript s = 0.8; companies A and B can expect the total weight of packages to vary by approximately 0.8 ounces from the mean.

<h3>What does the standard deviation means?</h3>

A standard deviation means the all measure of how dispersed the data is in relation to the mean. It should be noted that low standard deviation means that the data are clustered around the mean, and the high standard deviation means that the data are more spread out.

In this case, the answer choice that correctly calculates and interprets the standard deviation of the sum, S = X + Y is the sigma Subscript s = 0.8; companies A and B can expect the total weight of packages to vary by approximately 0.8 ounces from the mean.

In conclusion, the correct option is D.

Answer:

(-2, -8)

x = -2

y = -8

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define systems</u>

13x - 6y = 22

x = y + 6

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>

<em>Substitution</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                              13(y + 6) - 6y = 22
  2. Distribute 13:                                 13y + 78 - 6y = 22
  3. Combine like terms:                      7y + 78 = 22
  4. Isolate <em>y</em> term:                                7y = -56
  5. Isolate <em>y</em>:                                         y = -8

<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Define original equation:                    x = y + 6
  2. Substitute in <em>y</em>:                                     x = -8 + 6
  3. Add:                                                      x = -2

Find the Perimeter of the figure below, composed of a rectangle and a semicircle. Round to the nearest tenths place.
Dimas [21]

Answer:

50.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the circle is 12.56 because we take 1/2 of 8 (the length of the short side of the rectangle) and multiply that by pie (or 3.14). Now that we know that the perimeter of the circle is 12.56 we add that to 8 (short side of the rectangle) and we add that to 15 twice (which is 30)

stepladder [879]

This is the function

{2x}^{2}  - 2 {x}^{1}  + 12

Then factor 2 out

2(x^2- x + 6) = 0

Divide both side by two and use the quadratic formula to get the following

(x - 3)(x + 2) = 0

X=3 And x=-2 and don't forget to Chek them
