Answer:

Mean = 15.15

Standard deviation = 0.6062

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a uniform distribution of  quantity to be put in each bag.

Low and high filling weights:

14.1 pounds and 16.2 pounds

a = 14.1

b = 16.2

a) Mean:

\mu = \displaystyle\frac{a+b}{2}\\\\\mu = \frac{14.1+16.2}{2} = 15.15

b) Standard Deviation:

\sigma = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{(b-a)^2}{12}}\\\\= \sqrt{\dfrac{(16.2-14.1)^2}{12}} = \sqrt{0.3675} = 0.6062

For this case, what you must do is take out the area of two triangles and add it to the area of a rectangle to find the total area.
 We have then:
 Triangle area:
 A = (1/2) * ((13-9) / (2)) * (10) = 10 in ^ 2
 Rectangle area:
 A = (9) * (10) = 90 in ^ 2
 Total area:
 At = 2 * (10) + 90 = 110 in ^ 2
 answer:
 110 in²

Answer:

f(2) = 81

g(2) = 83

Science class had a higher average

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 0.5x + 80

g(x) table

Solving (a): f(2)

We have:

f(x) = 0.5x + 80

So:

f(2) = 0.5*2 + 80

f(2) = 1 + 80

f(2) = 81

Solving (b): g(2)

From the given table.

g(2) = 83

Solving (c): f(4) or g(4); which is greater

f(x) = 0.5x + 80

So:

f(4) = 0.5*4+80

f(4) = 2+80

f(4) = 82

For g(4): Notice that in the table of g(x); g(x) increases by 2 when x increases by 1

This means that:

g(x) = g(x-1)+2

So

g(4) = g(4-1)+2:

g(4) = g(3)+2

g(4) = 85+2

g(4) = 87

<em>Hence, g(4) i.e. Science class is greater</em>

Just need the answer. it was "Check all that apply." at the end.

Billy, let's recall what a linear pair of angles is:

• They are formed when two lines intersect.

,

• Two angles are said to be linear if they are adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines.

,

• The measure of a straight angle is 180 degrees, so a linear pair of angles must add up to 180 degrees.

Upon saying that we have that:

• CAD and DAE are linear pairs

,

• CAD and CAB are linear pairs

,

• DAE and BAE are linear pairs

,

• DAE and DAC are linear pairs

Now, you are ready to select all the options that actually apply.

Which set of ordered pairs is a function?
DochEvi [55]
A function is a set of ordered pairs in which no two different ordered pairs have the same x -coordinate. An equation that produces such a set of ordered pairs defines a function. What is the catch? There can be at most one output for every input.
