Answer:

X_(r) >> X_(n)

The mean for this case would increase since is defined as:

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

The interquartile range would not change since the definition for the IQR is IQR =Q_3 -Q_1 and the quartiles are the same.

The standard deviation would not remain the same since by definition is:

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

And since we change the largest value the deviation would increase considerably.

And for the last option is not always true since if we select a value so much higher then the distribution would be skewed to the right.

So the best option for this case is:

Mean would increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we assume that we have a random sample given X_(1), X_(2) ,..., X_(n) and for each observation X_i \sim N(\mu, \sigma) since the problem states that the data is approximately normal.

Let's assume that the largest value on this sample is X_(n) and for this case we are going to replace this value by another one extremely higher so we satisfy this condition:

X_(r) >> X_(n)

The mean for this case would increase since is defined as:

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

The interquartile range would not change since the definition for the IQR is IQR =Q_3 -Q_1 and the quartiles are the same.

The standard deviation would not remain the same since by definition is:

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

And since we change the largest value the deviation would increase considerably.

And for the last option is not always true since if we select a value so much higher then the distribution would be skewed to the right.

So the best option for this case is:

Mean would increase.

if a tv has a diagonal measurement of 55 and a height of 30, what is the tvs width? round to the nearest whole number
Sati [7]

Answer:

  46

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometry can be modeled by a right triangle. The diagonal measure is the hypotenuse, and the height is one leg. The width is the other leg, and can be found using the Pythagorean theorem.

__

<h3>Pythagorean theorem</h3>

The relation between the leg lengths (a, b) and the hypotenuse (c) is ...

  c² = a² +b²

Solving for b gives ...

  b = √(c² -a²)

<h3>application</h3>

In this problem, we have c=55 and a=30. Then the width of the TV is ...

  b = √(55² -30²) = √(3025 -900) = √2125

  b ≈ 46.098

The width of the TV is about 46.
