Answer:

(A) s^{2}=\frac{1}{n-1}\sum_{i}^{n}(x_{i}-\bar{x})^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Variance is the expectation of the squared deviation from the mean of x. Variance of the set of data can be discrete, continuous or mixed.

In order to calculate the variance of the set of the provided data, we need x_{i}= Terms in set of data,

\bar{x}= Sample mean

∑= sum,

n= sample size.

The variance can be calculated as:

s^{2}=\frac{1}{n-1}\sum_{i}^{n}(x_{i}-\bar{x})^{2}

where s^{2} is the variance and is always measured in squared units.

The correct formula is option (A),since it consists of summation of the square of the difference of the terms in the data and the mean, also variance is the measure of how far is each value in the given data from the mean, which is the correct formulation of the variance.

IM GIVING BRAINLIEST AND 100 POINTS NO JOKE. PLEASE HELP
Sav [38]

Answer:

i hope this helps

Step-by-step explanation:

if you have 100 people in the room and you interviewed all of them, (for number 6). that means that 70% of these people ate breakfast

70% of the total amount of people you interviewed is 70. That means that 70 people you interviewed, eat breakfast.

Then it also says, "of those 70% of people, 25% eat cereal"

That means 25% of those 70 people eat cereal, or 1/4 of that population does.

0.25 * 70 = 17.5. (of course you cannot have part of a person, but this is an example)

and of the 17.5 people, 30% of them eats it with extra sugar.

so 30% of 17.5 people is 5.25.

that means that there are 5.25 people who eat cereal with extra sugar.

i hope this helps, it took a while for me to try to help with this

i noticed that you made a mistake. the amount of people that eat cereal is 25% of 70% of the people. that means you have to find 0.25 of 0.7 <--- (you multiply not divide)

(0.25x 0.7) = 0.175
