Answer:

\sigma =3.74

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 4.9, 4.9, 9.9, 9.9, 14.9

To Find: Standard deviation

Solution:

Total number of observations = 5

Mean = \frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total no. of observations}}

Mean = \frac{4.9+4.9+9.9+9.9+14.9}{5}

Mean = 8.9

Thus \bar{x}=8.9

Now, Formula of standard deviation =\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x_i-{x})^2}{n}}

So, \sigma = \sqrt{\frac{(4.9-8.9)^2+(4.9-8.9)^2+(9.9-8.9)^2+(9.9-8.9)^2+(14.9-8.9)^2}{5}}

\sigma =3.74

Thus Option A is correct.

Hence the standard deviation of the data set is 3.74.

Standard deviation is calculated by the square root of the variance. Now, how do we solve the variance? The variance is the <span>average of the </span>squared differences from the Mean. Calculating the variance, we can obtain a standard deviation of <span>3.74. Therefore, the correct answer is option A.</span>

What is the solution to the inequality below?
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

B. x < -8 or x > 8

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use process of elimination to solve this problem by going through every solution and testing them out, but let's jump right to B.

Process:

You know that since the inequality states that x^2 has to be greater than 64, x  has to be more than 8, or less than -8.

This is because 8^2 = 64, and -8^2 = 64, and the inequality requires the answer to be more than 64.

Looking at B., you can see that if x is < -8, the square of, for example, -9, would be 81. This is greater than 64, so this works!

Now, B. also has an alternative. The 'or' is a major clue to which is the correct answer, since the square root of any number can be positive or negative. (-8^2 = 8^2)

The 'or' states that x must be greater than 8. So, for example, if we take the square of 10, we get 100, and that is also greater than 64.

We've proven that this solution is accurate for both parts, so it is definitely the one we want!

Hope this helps!

The value of y varies directly with x and y=12 when x=-6 find y when x=-4
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

B)8

Step-by-step explanation:

That is the right answer because when y=12,  x=-6

12/-6 = -2

This means that x = y/-2

or y = x * -2

-4 * -2 = 8

Hope I helped
