In Exercises 15-18, find the measure of the exterior angle.

valina [46]

Answer:

The measure of the exterior angle is 92 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem 16)

we know that

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles

In this problem

$(2x-2)\°=x\°+45\°$

solve for x

$2x-x=45+2$

$x=47\°$

Find the measure of the exterior angle

$(2x-2)\°=(2(47)-2)=92\°$

HELP ASPAP!!!!! WILL MARK BRAINIEST standard deviation

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

The standard deviation of the given data is 11.34.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the standard deviation for the given data;

Grade on No. of students

test (X) with that score (f) $X \times f$ $( X - \bar X)^{2}$ $f \times ( X - \bar X)^{2}$

50 1 50 1073.218 1073.2176

57 2 114 663.578 1327.1552

60 4 240 518.018 2072.0704

65 3 195 315.418 946.2528

72 3 216 115.778 347.3328

75 12 900 60.218 722.6112

77 10 770 33.178 331.776

81 6 486 3.098 18.5856

83 6 498 0.058 0.3456

88 9 792 27.458 247.1184

90 12 1080 52.418 629.0112

92 12 1104 85.378 1024.5312

95 2 190 149.818 299.6352

99 4 396 263.738 1054.9504

100 5 500 297.218 1486.088

Total 91 7531 11580.68

Firstly, the mean of the above data is given by;

Mean, $\bar X$ = $\frac{\sum X \times f}{\sum f}$

= $\frac{7531}{91}$ = 82.76

Now, the standard deviation of the data is given by;

Standard deviation, S.D. = $\sqrt{\frac{\sum f(X-\bar X)^{2} }{\sum f-1}}$

= $\sqrt{\frac{11580.68}{91-1}}$

= 11.34

Hence, the standard deviation of the given data is 11.34.
