Answer:

13.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

As the rectangle has 4 sides and the length is three times the width, each pair of a long side and a short side has a perimeter of 18 meters. As the ratio is 3:1, there are 4 parts in 18 meters, and 18 divided by 4=4.5. As the length covers 3 parts, and there are 4.5 meters per part, 4.5x3=13.5. The length of the rectangle is 13.5 meters. Hope it helps!

Answer: The range is 13. The mean is 10. The standard deviation is 4.62 .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data : 3, 6, 9, 11, 15, 16

Total number of data values : n = 6

The mean of data is given by :-

$\overline{x}=\dfrac{\sum^6_{i=1}x_i}{n}\\\\\Rightarrow\overline{x}=\dfrac{60}{6}=10$

The standard deviation is given by :-

$\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{n}(\sum^6_{i=1}(x_i-\overline{x})^2)}\\\\=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{6}(\sum^6_{i=1}(x_i-10)^2)}\\\\=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{6}\times(49+16+1+1+25+36)}=4.61880215352\approx4.62$
