Answer:

C. The data value must be less than the mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a statement and we are asked to choose the correct option about our given statement.

Since a z-score tells us that a data value is how many standard deviation away from mean.

To find the z-score for a given data value or raw score, we subtract the mean of data set from the given raw score and divide the result by standard deviation of the data set

If a data value is greater than mean, then it will have a positive z-score. If a data value is smaller than mean, then it will have a negative z-score.

Upon looking at our given choices we can see that option C is the correct choice.

Answer:

tarro corto

Step-by-step explanation:

Aquí tenemos que comprar el frasco que tiene el menor costo por volumen.

$h_1$ = Altura del frasco corto

$h_2$ = La altura del frasco alto es el doble que el del frasco corto. = $2h_1$

$d_1$ = Diámetro del frasco corto

$d_2$ = El diámetro del frasco alto es la mitad del frasco corto = $\dfrac{1}{2}d_1$

El volumen de un cilindro es $\pi \dfrac{d^2}{4}h$

La razón de los volúmenes de los frascos es

$\dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{\pi\dfrac{d_1^2}{4}h_1}{\pi\dfrac{d_2^2}{4}h_2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{d_1^2h_1}{d_2^2h_2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{d_1^2h_1}{(\dfrac{1}{2}d_1)^22h_1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{d_1^2h_1}{\dfrac{1}{4}d_1^22h_1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{2}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=2\\\Rightarrow V_1=2V_2$
