the following data values represent a population. what is the variance of the values? 17, 5, 11, 1, 11

1 answer:

4 0

Variance = summation of (x - mean)^2 all divided by the number of dataset.
mean = (17 + 5 + 11 + 1 + 11)/5 = 9

Variance = [(17 - 9)^2 + (5 - 9)^2 + (11 - 9)^2 + (1 - 9)^2 + (11 - 9)^2]/5 = (8^2 + (-4)^2 + 2^2 + (-8)^2 + 2^2}/5 = (64 + 16 + 4 + 64 + 4)/5 = 152/5 = 30.4

In ΔABC, if m∠A = 43° and m∠C = 66°, then find m∠B.

weqwewe [10]

The measures of the angles in a triangle add up to 180°.
$m \angle A + m \angle B + m \angle C = 180^\circ \\
m \angle A=43^\circ, \ m \angle C = 66^\circ \\ \downarrow \\
43^\circ+ m \angle B + 66^\circ = 180^\circ \\
m \angle B + 109^\circ = 180^\circ \\
m \angle B =180^\circ - 109^\circ \\
\boxed{m \angle B=71^\circ}$

you want to put 520 quarters in coin wrappers. you need one wrapper for every $10 in quarters. write an equation you can use to

Lisa [10]

40c=520
This is the proper equation because there are 40 quarters in $10. Thus, if we could only fit $10 worth of quarters in each wrapper, we can only fit 40quarters in each wrapper. C represents the amount of wrappers we will need.

Hope this helps!
