Answer:

$475,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the profits increase by 5% each year, this means that each year the new profit is 105% of the old ones.

To find last year's profits, we divide this year's by 105%, or 1.05:

500000/1.05 = 476190.48

This means the profits last year were about $475,000.

Use the dchnition of similarity to solve the following problem.
sveta [45]

Answer:

  1063 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For shadow problems, we assume the sun's rays are parallel, so the triangles formed are similar. That means the ratio of height to shadow length is the same for each object.

  h/(580 ft) = (5.5 ft)/(3 ft)

  h = (5.5 ft)(580/3) ≈ 1063 ft

The height of the monument is about 1063 feet.

Describe how the range of a data set can help describe its variability.
katovenus [111]

Answer:

The range is defined as the difference between the term with the highest value and the term with the lowest value. This statistic is used to measure the variability of a series of data because it provides information on how far apart the values of a tail of the distribution are from the values at the other end of the tail.

Imagine that you manufacture a type of spare part for cars that must have a measurement of 10 cm with a margin of error of 1 cm.

This is:

10 ± 1 cm

Then you expect your manufacturing process to produce pieces with identical dimensions, that is, with little variability.

If you randomly select a sample of n pieces and measure them, the variability is expected to be low, so that your process is of quality, then expect a low range preferably less than 1 cm.

{10, 10.1, 10.5, 9.8, 9,6, 10.2} Range= 10.5 - 9.6 = 0.9 cm <em> low variability</em>

But if you find that the range is up to 8 cm, this would mean that not all pieces measure around 10 cm, it means that the variability of the measurements is high.

{14, 12, 11, 8, 7, 11, 12, 15} Range = 15 - 7 = 8 cm   <em>high variability </em>
