A right rectangular prism has a volume of 40 cm3. Find the new volume of the prism if only the length of the prism is doubled.

1 answer:

3 0

Well we know that:
Volume = l×w×h
so that means:
40 = l×w×h
Well if the length is doubled that means
New Volume = 2l×w×h or
New Volume = 2×l×w×h
Well since we know from our original equation that 40 = l×w×h, we can substitute it into this new volume equation
New Volume = 2×l×w×h
New Volume = 2×(40)
New volume = 80 cm³

The variance can never bea.zerob.larger than the standard deviationc.negatived.smaller than the standard deviation

MrRa [10]

Answer:

c.negative

True, by definition since the variance take in count the differences around the mean squared, then we can't have a negative value for a sum of square values.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to remember that the variance is a measure of dispersion for a dataset respect to a measure of central tendency called the mean. The mean is defined as:

$\bar x = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

And the population mean is given by:

$\mu= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{N}$

The population variance is defined by:

$\sigma^2 = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\mu)^2}{N}$

And the sample variance is defined as:

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

Now if we analyze the options we have this:

a.zero

False, if all the values are the same then the mean would be the same to the values and the difference between each value and the mean would 0 and indeed the variance would be 0.

b.larger than the standard deviation

False, if the population standard deviation is $\sigma=2$ then the variance would be $\sigma^2 = 4$ and as we can see is higher than the standard deviation

c.negative

True, by definition since the variance take in count the differences around the mean squared, then we can't have a negative value for a sum of square values.

d.smaller than the standard deviation

False, if the population standard deviation is $\sigma=0.1$ then the variance would be $\sigma^2 = 0.01$ and as we can see is lower than the standard deviation
