MAXImum [283]

Answer:

$108\ minutes$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) we know that

Sally can paint the wall in 54 minutes

The 100% of the wall ------> she can paint in 54 minutes

by proportion

calculate how much is the percent of the work in 36 minutes

$\frac{100\%}{54} =\frac{x\%}{36}\\ \\x=36*100/54\\ \\x=66.67\%$

That means

Sally in 36 minutes can paint the 66.67% of the wall

2) Sally and Ethan work together, they can paint the wall in 36 minutes

Ethan in 36 minutes can paint (100%-66.67%)=33.33%

by proportion

Calculate how much time does it take for Ethan to paint the wall by herself

$\frac{33.33\%}{36} =\frac{100\%}{x}\\ \\x=36*100/33.33\\ \\x=108\ minutes$

Help me find Sample variance and standard deviation

AnnZ [28]

First, find the mean. You'll need it to compute the variance.

$\bar x=\displaystyle\frac15\sum_{i=1}^5x_i=\dfrac{21+10+6+7+11}5=11$

The variance of the sample is then computed with the formula

$s^2=\displaystyle\dfrac1{5-1}\sum_{i=1}^5(\bar x-x_i)^2=\dfrac{(21-11)^2+\cdots+(11-11)^2}4=\dfrac{71}2=35.5$

The standard deviation is the square root of the variance, so

$s=\sqrt{35.5}\approx5.958$
