Answer: 7.22
(note: this is a result after rounding. The result before rounding was 7.21875)
========================================================
Explanation:
Given Set of Values = {22, 16, 39, 35, 19, 34, 20, 26}
Add up the values: 22+16+39+35+19+34+20+26 = 211
Divide that sum by 8 as there are 8 values: 211/8 = 26.375
The mean is 26.375
Now subtract the mean from each data value. Apply the absolute value to ensure the difference is never negative
|22 - 26.375| = 4.375
|16 - 26.375| = 10.375
|39 - 26.375| = 12.625
|35 - 26.375| = 8.625
|19 - 26.375| = 7.375
|34 - 26.375| = 7.625
|20 - 26.375| = 6.375
|26 - 26.375| = 0.375
Add up those results
4.375+10.375+12.625+8.625+7.375+7.625+6.375+0.375 = 57.75
Then divide by 8
57.75/8 = 7.21875
The mean absolute deviation of the prices is 7.21875
Rounded to two decimal places, it is 7.22
Since we're talking about money, it makes sense to round to the nearest penny.
Dividing fractions is basically the same thing as multiplying but by the reciprocal. I will give an example.
1/2 divided by 1/3
To solve this you do 1/2 multiplied by 3/1 so you switch the numerator and denominator.
Because 3^2 = 9
When you do (⅓)^2 what you are really doing is
(1^2)/(3^2) = 1/9
If you have (⅔)^2 you do
(2^2)/(3^2) = 4/9
Fractions get smaller because the denominator is also being squared which makes the denominator get bigger and when the denominator is bigger, you are dividing by a larger number which gives you a smaller answer. Whereas when you raise a whole number to an exponent, only the numerator get bigger because the denominator is 1 and 1 raised to any exponent is still 1
3^2 = (3^2)/(1^2) = 9/1 = 9
The answer is C) 0.04 becuase the 4 is in the hundredths place
<u>Answer:</u>
Trapezoid is the shape of the cross section of a rectangular pyramid.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We are given a rectangular pyramid was sliced such that it becomes parallel to its base. We are to determine the shape of the cross section.
Slicing the pyramid with rectangular pyramid will form a trapezoid as a cross section which will be parallel to the base of the pyramid.
Refer to the figure below for better understanding.
