Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

There is a set of 100 observations with a mean of 40 and a standard deviation of 0.

standard deviation=0

means that variance=0     (since, variance=square of standard deviation)

now, variance is calculated as sum of the square of deviations of all the data points from the mean

i.e. if x1,x2,...xn are n observations, then

\dfrac{(x1-mean)^2+(x2-mean)^2+...(xn-mean)^2}{n}  is the variance

since variance is zero means that each of (xi-mean)^2 is zero

i.e. xi=mean for each i=1,2,...n

Hence here each of the observation is equal to mean=40

Hence, the value of the smallest observation in the set is:

      40

A standard deviation of 0 means that nothing deviates, in other words all observations are 40. So 40 is the smallest, the largest, all of that!

I need to know the answer I’m working on rational numubers
lesya [120]

Answer:

Fraction Form: \frac{11}{24}

Decimal Form: 0.4583

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the fraction rule: \frac{-a}{b} = - \frac{a}{b}

\frac{-5}{12} = - \frac{5}{12}

- \frac{5}{12} + \frac{7}{8}

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 12 and 8: 24

- \frac{5}{12} x  \frac{2}{2} = - \frac{10}{24} \\\\\frac{7}{8} x  \frac{3}{3} = \frac{21}{24} \\\\- \frac{10}{24} + \frac{21}{24}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a}{c} + \frac{b}{c}= \frac{a + b}{c}\\\\\frac{-10 + 21}{24} \\\\-10 + 21 = 11\\\\\frac{11}{24}
