17. Which of the following is TRUE? ( 5 points) a. The mean tells us, roughly, how much the data deviate from the average. b. Th

e mean is the more reliable measure of center because it is not affected by extreme values ( outliers) c. The Mean of Normal Distribution is related to the average of the data set. The Standard deviation is related to data variation. d. The standard deviation is calculated by adding the data values and dividing the total by the number of data values.

Answer:

c. The Mean of Normal Distribution is related to the average of the data set. The Standard deviation is related to data variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) No, mean don't tell us how much the data deviate from the average, Standard deviation tells us. So, Option (a) is incorrect.

(b) No, mean is greatly affected by extreme values. But Median is good to measure central tendency when there is outlier present in data. So, Option (b) is also incorrect.

(c) Here Mean and Standard deviation are correctly defined. Hence, this is only the correct answer.

(d) No, It is the definition of mean not of Standard Deviation. So, this option is also incorrect.

Further, Mean is used to measure the central tendency of data which represents the whole data in the best way. It can be found as the ratio of the sum of all the observations to the total number of observations.

Ralph is an electrician. He charges an initial fee of $26, plus $31 per hour. If Ralph earned $119 on a job, how long did the jo
lubasha [3.4K]


3 hours

You can turn this into an equation:

F = 26 + 31t
Where F is the money Ralph earned, and t is the number of hours he worked.

Plugging in the 119 for F, we get
119 = 26 + 31t

93 = 31t

3 = t

Complete the square on the following quadratic x2+10x+9=0
kakasveta [241]
Given a quadratic equation x^{2} +ax+c=0

1. the first thing we do when we want to compete the square, is write the coefficient of x as 2 times a number.

In our case the coefficient of x is 10, so we write 10 as 2*5

2. then we write + 5^{2} and - 5^{2} to the expression:

x^{2} +2*5*x+ 5^{2} -5^{2}+9=0

(x^{2} +2*5*x+ 5^{2}) -25+9=0

(x+5)^{2}-16=0



Answer: (x+5)^{2}-16=0

Answer:

3/5 or 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, given the value of tan theta , we want to find the value of sine theta

Mathematically;

tan theta = 0pposite/adjacent

Sine theta = opposite/hypotenuse

Firstly we need the length of the hypotenuse

This can be obtained using the Pythagoras’ theorem which states that the square of the hypotenuse equals sum of the squares of the two other sides.

Let’s call the hypotenuse h

h^2 = 3^2 + 4^2

h^2 = 9 + 16

h^2 = 25

h = √(25)

h = 5

Now from the tan theta, we know that the opposite is 3

Thus, the value of the sine theta = 3/5 or simply 0.6
