Teachers are being trained to standardized the scores they give to students' essays. The same essay was scored by 10 different t

eachers at the beginning and at the end of their training. The results are shown in the tables.

<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2><h3>Ques 7)</h3>

<u>Score for essay at Beginning of Teachers Training:</u>

76   81   85   79   89    86    84    80    88    79

The mean of the score is calculated as:

Mean(x')=\dfrac{76+81+85+79+89+86+84+80+88+79}{10}\\\\\\Mean(x')=\dfrac{827}{10}\\\\\\Mean(x')=82.7

Now, mean absolute deviation is calculated as:

MAD=\dfrac{\sum{|x-x'|}}{n}

where n are the number of points.

  x            |x-x'|

 76           6.7

 81            1.7

 85           2.3

 79           3.7

 89           6.3

 86           3.3

 84            1.3

 80            2.7  

 88            5.3

 79            3.7

Hence, MAD is:

MAD=\dfrac{6.7+1.7+2.3+3.7+6.3+3.3+1.3+2.7+5.3+3.7}{10}\\\\\\MAD=3.7

<u>Score for essay at End of Teachers Training:</u>

79   82   84    81    77    85     82    80    78     83

The mean of the score is calculated as:

Mean(x')=\dfrac{79+82+84+81+77+85+82+80+78+83}{10}\\\\\\Mean(x')=\dfrac{811}{10}\\\\\\Mean(x')=81.1

Now, mean absolute deviation is calculated as:

MAD=\dfrac{\sum{|x-x'|}}{n}

where n are the number of points.

  x            |x-x'|

 79           2.1

 82          0.9

 84           2.9

 81           0.1

 77           4.1

 85           3.9

 82           0.9

 80            1.1

 78            3.1

 83            1.9

Hence, MAD is:

MAD=\dfrac{2.1+0.9+2.9+0.1+4.1+3.9+0.9+1.1+3.1+1.9}{10}\\\\\\MAD=2.1

Yes, the teacher made progress in standarizing the score. Since the MAD decreases after the end of training.

<h3>Ques 8)</h3>

If the MAD is 0 than this means that all the scores are same and hence equal to the mean and would result in the deviation equal to 0 and hence the mean absolute deviation is 0.

At time t ≥ 0, the velocity of a body moving along the s-axis is v = t² -5t +4. When is the body moving backwards
katovenus [111]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity of a moving body is given by the equation:

v=t^2-5t+4 ,\, t\geq0

Is the velocity is <em>positive </em>(v>0), then our object will be moving <em>forwards</em>.

And if the velocity is negative (v<0), then our object will be moving <em>backwards</em>.

We want to find between which interval(s) is the object moving backwards. Hence, the second condition. Therefore:

v

By substitution:

t^2-5t+4

Solve. To do so, we can first solve for <em>t</em> and then test values. By factoring:

(t-4)(t-1)=0

Zero Product Property:

t=1, \text{ and } t=4

Now, by testing values for t<1, 1<t<4, and t>4, we see that:

v(0)=4>0,\, v(2)=-20

So, the (only) interval for which <em>v</em> is <0 is the second interval: 1<t<4.

Hence, our answer is A.

A rectangle with length n and height m. A right triangle with hypotenuse n + 1, length n, and height m.
Oksana_A [137]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  C. 12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the perimeter of the rectangle is ...

  P = 2(L+W)

  34 = 2(n +m)

Solving for m, we get

  m = 17 -n . . . . . . . divide by 2, subtract n

__

The Pythagorean theorem gives the relationship between the sides and the hypotenuse

  m^2 +n^2 = (n+1)^2

  (17 -n)^2 +n^2 = (n +1)^2 . . . . . . substitute for m

  289 -34n +n^2 +n^2 = n^2 +2n +1 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  n^2 -36n +288 = 0 . . . . . . . put in standard form

  (n -12)(n -24) = 0 . . . . . . . . . factor

  n = 12 . . . . . . . . . . n=24 is an extraneous solution here

The value of n is 12 cm.

A CHICKEN COOP HOLDS A TOTAL OF 10 HENS OR 20 CHICKS. IF 2/5THS OF THE HENS IN A FULL COOP ARE REMOVED, HOW MANY NEW CHICKS COUL
LiRa [457]

Answer:

8 new chicks can be fitted in the coop.

Step-by-step explanation:

A chicken coop holds 10 hens or 20 chicks.

That means space in the coop for 10 hens = space for 20 chicks

Or space for 1 hen = space for 2 chicks

Now \frac{2}{5}th of the hens were removed from the coop.

So, number of hens removed from the coop = \frac{2}{5}\times 10

= 4 hens

And space for 4 hens in the coop = space for the 8 chicks

Therefore, 8 new chicks can be fitted in the coop.
